I realize that the last thread I created here pretty much alienated me as the biggest "bitch" but please bear with me, as I just need to rant about something.
Last night there was a party at this girls house. I had been cleaning all day in my basement and got a severe headache, so instead of going, I went to go see Shooter with my dad. Apparently, one kid named Jack in my class pushed this other kid, JT, into a chair. The chair broke, and people started freaking out at JT for this for the reason of how the girl will get caught for the broken chair. He was obviously really drunk at the time, and was already not in the best condition. Apparently he has had "dark thoughts" in his head, and tried to get into a car drunk last weekend and had to be removed with force by one of his friends. Unfortunately, there were no friends around for him last night.
He proceeded to walk from the party to his house (aroun, d 3/4 a mile I think). When he got home, his mother was out, and no one was around, as they were all at the party he got kicked out of. He texted this girl Annie who he was very good friends with, and went out and told her that he was going to do this, and it was over, and that he loved her. I have no information so far that explains why she didn't act on this, or even if she did.
He got into his car and drove into Old City Philadelphia. If you've ever driven in Philly, the streets make you want to curse off Billy Penn. He was driving the wrong way down a one way street, and a police squad car saw him. From the story I heard, several police cars started to chase him, one eventually hitting the front of his car while he was going across the Ben Franklin Bridge. He then got out of his car, jumped onto the PATCO train line that is on the outer part of the bridge, and jumped down into the Delaware River (a jump of around 135 feet. His body has yet to be found.

The two links inside of the article forward you to more dignified sources.
My school only has about 800 kids enrolled in it. It's a 9-12 high school, which came from a 6-8 Middle School. Before middle school, we all came from three different elementary schools. JT came from mine. The point being that you can easily know everyone who is in the grade above you and the grade below you.
So obviously I knew him. He was on my basketball team in 8th grade.
What connects me to him the most is an altercation between ourselves in October of last year. We were at a buddy of mines and we decided to go over JT's house. There were a good 50-60 people there, however, he did not want me in his house because, for some reason, he thought I'd break something. Although it was understandable since I'm a senior, he was really "talking down" on me and I felt disrespected, although I really don't feel like I deserve the respect right now.
We were both drunk, and it got to the point where he put his hands on me to push me away, and I quickly reacted and just pushed him though his own door. He eventually let me in, and that was the last time I ever talked to him.
I had some people over about one month ago, and I let him in because I felt bad about what happened at his house. I'm very sensitive and really take a lot of stuff to heart, maybe even making myself vulnerable. It was a pretty chill night, just watched Harold and Kumar and drank some brews here before hitting up another party. For some reason that night, I really wanted to apologize to him for being such of a dick at his house. I never went out of my way to do so, and now I'm regretting this.
I really don't want to put the spotlight on me, but I honestly now feel so incomplete without saying something to him. Now that he's gone, I don't know what to believe/do/think/say. Obviously everyone is grieving and going though what I am.
I know I'm not really respected around this place anymore, but you guys were like family to me. At 3AM, when no one is around, you guys were all I used to have. Hopefully you can understand me reaching out during something this serious, something I've never felt before. It makes me feel ashamed that I got so whiny over a stupid breakup, now that I know what this feels like. Thanks for letting me rant guys, I needed it. Peace.

[QUOTE=Will;176202]Ding ding ding. All I've got here is a damned microwave, and an oven that is down on the first floor lounge. The catch is: only people from the first floor can get into it, so you've gotta know someone on the first floor. I'm on the sixth floor, I'm horrible at socializing, and I only know like... two people in residence.
Soooo, stop bitching.
There's some like... ham and cheese things I got from No Frills, which were wrapped in chicken. Microwavable and great in comparison to caf food.
Jamaican patties are good, too.
Though, in all honesty, I miss actual ****ing food. I can only imagine what a combination of cafeteria food and whatevert the **** I'm eating is doing to my already unhealthy body. [/QUOTE]
