depressing me I know...lol

So the last post is really about a girl that died yesterday. I went to school with her, we were on the wrestling team together, I usually had to pratise with her because we were in the same weight category. I haven't really seen her since then, or even know her all that well anymore for that matter. But it doesn't make her death any less sad. I feel bad for her family and friends they are the ones who are suffering.

I got in a fight with my oldest sister. Gillian. But thats nothing new. [ I need to makes a side note first to help you understand. Sometimes just hearing my sisters voice annoys me.So sometimes I jump down her throat. We fight way to much.] So she walked in the door and asked if I knew the girl that died. I said "Yes. And I know she's dead." And I guess from my tone I sounded inconsiderate. But I didn't mean for it to sound that way. Im blunt, I always have been. I have talked about the death at least 10 times already that day, so when Gillian asked I was kind of nonchalant. She of course blow up at me saying that I only thought about myself. She told me I was self centered and couldn't empasise with anyone. I of course yelled back, not I'm sure what I said.I tried to explain to her that just because I don't cry when someone's dies that make me a bad person.I needed to defend myself, but it wasn't working. Anyways this went on for like 10 mins and my mom took my sisters side.

I do understand that my tone may of sounded like I didn't care. But I can be a little guarded with my feelings when people ask and I don't want to show. I do feel bad about what happened I just don't talk about it. My sisters will go on for hours talking about it and cry, And I will say that sucks. And write about it in my journal. But every thing I am saying is making me sound bad and making Gillian sound right. So I will shut up.

It sounds like it might be helpful if you write Gillian a letter explaining your feelings about the girl's death and about the misunderstandings that lead to an argument with her. It's very easy to miscommunicate with people verbally, but not as easy when it's written.
