Welcome to Gaia! ::

3nodding okie dokie I posted something and managed to make it even more emotionally distressing for Koji! wheee~


biggrin yay for new school things!! And boo for long discussion board posts! D:

I'm pretty sure it's been a year. xD
Last year was Greek gods, if I recall correctly?

I know they advertised the "annual user run" help a newbie event or something like that a week or two ago?
Maybe that's what you were thinking of?

On a side note, I let Foxi dye my hair tonight. It was supposed to make me a redhead, but when it was sitting on my head and foaming it looked like one of those bright orange highlighters.
So then I rinsed my hair out after the timer went off and it like barely even change my hair color at all... o; which was disappointing.. when she dyed my hair for Anime Expo it turned out better.
I should probably get it done professionally, but I can't warrant spending more than$20 on my hair.

Kojiiii, pics or it didn't happen!

Twi, you shouldn't feel bad. It's a very short event, anyway.

Waffle, you better start working crossword puzzles or something. emotion_awesome

on the plus side, he was a great-grandfather... so... it's not like he died young?

hey, don't be sorry. it wouldn't be right for you to have to go through that alone. grieving is natural, and healthy. and if you don't open up about it it can eat away at you in a very unhealthy way. the very reason society has these traditions and rituals concerning death is because we can't expect people to go through grief alone. dramatic events, whether joyous or somber, bring communities together.

I hope the funeral will bring you some closure. maybe the local minister's eulogy will be inspiring. either way, though, feel right at home to vent to us. we're all ears. and if you need any one-on-one time with anybody, you know I'm around. I don't wanna speak for the others, but it's my understanding that everyone in this guild is here for you.

people die. life isn't forever. and we all know that. no matter how long your grandfather lived, the pain will always be with those left behind. and for various reasons, some dependent on the individual. just remember, you shouldn't feel guilty about what could have been. there will always be those feelings of self-blame. people try to rationalize what happened. but fact is, it just happened. I know it's sad, but it isn't your fault, even that you "didn't spend enough time with him".

you miss him. that's to be expected. sad you can't bring him back, though. emotion_hug

You missed me?
I return from real life to sadness...

My condolences, Mike. emotion_hug
Jayyyy, go for a walk outside today at least. Fresh air sometimes revives you when you're in a slump.
