<font color="purple">Well, I went to the wake of the kid who killed himself last weekend and one of the kids who was there who I really didn't like . Anyways, I gave him a hug because he WAS taking the death just as hard as everyone else in the school. He said he wanted to see if we could hang out this summer and I said "Sounds okay" because really now, I'm not going to just reject him at a time like this. Well, I'm saying "uh-oh" because I know it's not going to work out for a few various reasons.

Now, the reason why I don't like him is because generaly 80-90% of the time this kid acts like a real moron. And you know, that in itself wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't my age and only a freshman in highschool AND IS A DRUG ABUSER WITH A PREGNANT GIRLFRIEND AND JUST LEFT A MENTAL HOSPITAL FOR "PSYCOSIS".

Man, 1/2 the school came to the wake, even though it meant skipping 9th period, including the teachers. I almost cried when I came to the parents though...the mom had the entire school's grief combined times 50 million. She was crying at how so many people showed up and that he had so many friends and how he really loved his friends. His father seemed really kind of cold and disstant, but considering that he's a man (and a miltray one at that) I think a cold attitude and silence indicates just as much (if not more) pain.

Wow, you seem to have some insight into this thing called grief! So many different ways to grieve (and not grieve) that it really is difficult to gauge where someone is in the process.

I am relieved you made it through the day. Know that you cared, and that you must carry on!

Kaika, it was very compassionate of you to reach out to one of the kids "you don't really like." It sounds like he really is struggling in life and he really needed your support. Being so young with a pregnant girlfriend and mental health issues must be very difficult for him. As I write this, I hope you are doing what you need to do to take care of yourself in this situation. I hope you are supporting yourself as much as you are supporting others. My thoughts are with you.
