sad, sad, sad

I have stopped reading the news obsessively because it's incredibly depressing, but these three stories are pretty much all over the place. Three kids, all under the age of 22, murdered before they could fulfill their hopes and dreams. First it was the student athlete murdered by low life gang members. They asked him what gang he when he didn't answer they shot and killed him. Disgusting, horrible. He wasn't in a gang you scum. Worst of all, his mother got word of it serving her second tour of duty in Iraq. Then there was the Auburn girl who was shot and her car was torched. It seems she may have been sexually assaulted too. And then the poor UNC student body president. Just horrible, in her short 22 years she had done so much for the world and some poor excuse for a human had to end it by putting multiple bullets in her. It's a sad world when all 3 of these happen in less than 5 days.

In happier news, I am leaving for NYC after work tomorrow. Cannot wait, already have a lot of things in the works. Fingers crossed. Have a good weekend!
