So, today I call my dad like I normally do in the morning, and he says, in this super grave voice "Have you heard? It's all over the news." Naturally, I'm like oh shit, what's happened?! Thinking it was some kind of terrorist attack or something.

Nope! Instead I find out that at my sister's high school, someone was fatally stabbed. As in, in the vicinity of my baby sister, someone stabbed someone to death! Most likely over something incredibly stupid. Now the school is crazy with parents trying to pick up school, police officers and detectives over the campus, which is in lock-down. So yeah. Kind of horrifying. And then by the time I got to campus, it was on the yahoo news page, and then I got texts from Monica and Hannah.

Hannah, she just texted to ask what school I went to, and where Mel went. Monica thanks me for a message on her fbook wall, and then says that there's been a stabbing at CGSH. THANKS FOR BREAKING IT TO ME SO GENTLY, MONICA.

Crazy.

I was actually hoping it was the school you went to instead of the one Mel went to (I have no idea why I can't keep them straight to this day). Ugh. I seriously FLIPPED when I saw it on my Yahoo page, but I didn't want to like straight up text you, "IS MELANIE ALIVE?"

And I appreciate that, in case I hadn't known.
