My First Funeral --- for a high school classmate



This weekend I will be attending my first funeral ever.
Ironically, it happens to be for a high school classmate,
and someone who went to University College of Bangor with
me, though not in any of my classes or my degree program.
The really weird thing about this is that I just saw her
at school about three weeks ago. Since then, she has
gotten into a bad car accident and died from severe brain
trauma. She was one of the several people who was nice
to me in middle school while others either made fun of
me, or ignored me. We played basketball on the same team
in middle school too. Even though we were never on each
other's list of friends, I'm going to miss her. I'll
miss seeing her at class reunions and on the University
College campus.
