21.....
So.....my birthday is on Sunday and i will be 21. YEA for me.....So now I get to start declining drinks even more because age is not an excuse anymore. Some of my friends understand why I don't drink and they respect that and they would also tell me if anyone spiked my drink which I am very thankful for. Some of my other friends just don't get it at all. Which is kind of frustrating for me. But I don't understand the whole drinking thing, I mean why would anyone want to drink something that tastes bad and then makes you throw up if your drink too much. I don't get it at all. But apparently getting drunk is fun.....so I guess I will be missing out on so much fun.....whatever. I will find my own fun. haha

A Funeral and A Reception-all in one day
So yesterday morning i went to the viewing, funeral and internment for Daniel and then in the afternoon drove to Morrisville, PA to go to a reception for Becca and John Demos. It was an extremely emotional day.
I never thought I could cry as much as I did. I should not have gone into see him but i did and I lost it as soon as i walked in and when i finally stopped crying, my brother gave me a poem that his mom wrote about daniel and I lost it again. I calmed down a second time and then they brought in the casket and I lost it yet again. I was doing ok through Derrick's(the dad) talk and then when Ellen (mom) started giving her talk i was tearing up at certain parts but then the kids got up and tlaked about what they were going to miss the most and True (7yr old) got up and he was so sweet and it made me cry and then Justin (17) got up and he spent the most time with him and he was trying not to cry, Justin who is so tall and calm and does not cry, and I lost it completely. My dad had to put his arm around me and it was just so hard to hear and to see.
So by the time Marissa and I were driving down to go to the reception, I was so tired from crying that it was amazing to me. I am so glad that Marissa was driving because I would have had a hard time. The reception was really good. It was so pretty and Becca looked GORGEOUS and she was glowing and it was awesome to see.
So I got home around 10:30pm last night and I crashed.
It was an emotional day.....(sigh)
