vigil/viewing/funeral/burial

so yesterday, i went to the vigil mass with my mom at forest lawn.
we got there in the middle of mass -_-
a slideshow was shown after the mass
and maan i was on the verge of crying.
i never knew she was so photogenic.
I found out that if I had arrived there earlier, i would have ran into my 6th grade teacher.. Mr. Salazar.
GAHHHH. He made St. Polycarp worth visiting for the graduates.
I was sad he left for another teaching job.
Haven't seen him since 8th grade.
=[ he was cool.
man, i've always wanted to run into him at disneyland.
He's one of the security people. mm but i don't know if he works there still.
but dang. he was a cool teacher.
After the vigil mass, i ran into Shannon and Germaine
ughh its been soooo long. and gah people grow up so fast!
its craazy. both her and kristine are freaking taller than me.
it was cool running into her. sighh it brought back the memories of when we all used to play in kristines house.
oh! and her brother germaine isn't so big anymore!
so like i was totally excited to meet my babysitter from my childhood.
but it turned out that my mom meant playmate. ?
so that was lame. i was sitting there looking around for some dark pretty skinned girl thinking she was like 20 something, but it turns out shes only a little 14 year old. yea she wasn't there. its weird because i don't really remember her.
i ran into many unfamiliar faces who knew who i was and remembered me from when i was 4
ughh i felt so bad not knowing who they were
and i ran into many familiar faces.
gah they're like the 3rd family. ahaha
i was surprised they still remembered me after its been freaking ages..
i haven't gone to any parties that they've thrown since i was like 10.
ahahah i dunno. but its been foreverrr

The funeral was today. i was having a hard time trying to figure out what to wear.
i changed out of more than 3 diff outfits. =/ i thought i had a lot of black clothing.. but i guess i don't anymore ahah
so my mom helped me and gave me a black longsleeve to wear under one of my dresses and she gave me leggings because mine looked faded and torn. loll
man there was a lot of people.
i didn't think i'd go to the burial but i ended up going. the funeral ended at 9:30ish. and i didn't have class til 11:30 so i thought mmkay whyy not. so i went to the burial. on the way there i saw meron walking to her car. that was pretty random. i ran into brian lim there, and some other girl.. and there were so many old faces. i'm sad i didn't get to stay longer to say hi and hear what they've been up to. i ended up leaving in the middle of the burying part. =[ right after throwing in the flowers. man that part is always sad. yea so my mom felt like i would be late for class, but man we had time. but she didn't think so. and i was right. i got there 30 minutes early ><
so it sucked because i didn't have my phone, or bag with all my school stuff because i left it in the other car because the plan was that my dad would come get me after the funeral at St. I, so when we got home he wasn't there.. along with the car.. so i went to school with nothing but a piece of paper and pen. ahaha
i got out 30 minutes early again. wooo
and then waited for my dad and ugh, i didn't do too well driving back home =[ i made him angry
gah so i don't drive too well when theres so much on my mind. blehh
but anyways. i didn't make it in time to go to the reception
but its okaay.

so i'm home now.. =/
listening to demi lavato and nick lachey music
-_-





i feel nervous.
