Rest in peace, Uncle Joe. I wish you made it over here. I miss you so much. We all do. I know my mother does, so much. She's gonna miss you calling her every day. But I know you're happy now and in a better place. That's what keeps me smiling. I love you so. <3 6/12/1956 - 5/3/2010
I have two of the greatest friends in the entire world. After my mother had called me at 12:30 this morning, I immediately called Ethan. We had been texting pretty much my whole drive home, so I knew he was still awake. Unfortunately he didn't answer his phone. So I called Berani and I told him the news and asked if I could come over so I'm not alone. Of course he said yes. He loves me. On my way over there, Ethan calls me back. So I told him the news as well. And what did he say? "Do you want to come over here? Or.. do you want me to go over there? What would you like me to do for you?" I told him he could join me at Berani's house if he would like. So once I get there I ask Berani if he had called, and I guess he said he'd been drinking, so he wasn't able to drive. But he had only had two or three beers. He sobered up and made sure he was completely okay to drive, then called Berani and asked if I was still there and he said he was gonna head over. These boys are my world. The moment Ethan got there he immediately walked over to me and gave me the biggest hug ever. The whole time we were pretty much watching Futurama, Ugly Americans, and South Park. After about an hour I decided I was kinda tired and wanted to go home. Ethan left as well. He gave me another giant hug by our cars and told me to call him if I needed anything. It was very kind of him. Once I got home, though, I got a text from him saying, "I mean it. If there's anything you need. I'm there! Like in the blink of an eye! POW! I'm there." This is coming from someone who rarely shows any emotions whatsoever. I don't think he realized how much that meant to me. I would do anything for them, and now I believe they would do just the same for me.
