the cat in the hat ,
I know exactly what you mean, A huge fan of korey stringer-been to a lot of his games, that shook me hard, he was such a talented guy.<br />Ofcorse there is Aliyah so young and with a voice of an angel, who could deny her talent, or her beauty, then there is walter mathau and jack lemmon, both of them defined the sixties and died in 2001. Carol Lewis of one of the shows i loved most(All in the family and MASH were so briiliant,) died and broke hearts.<br />Then there is joey Ramone-who defined punk, not to mention all of the hollywood couples that broke up this year(tom cruise and nicole kidman,meg ryan and dennis quaid, kim basinger and alec baldwin, and jim carrey and renee wegger,<br />One of my fav tennis player morariu was diagnosed with lukemia, tons of other celebs passed on.
Then ofcorse, right before i came to this board i went through some of the hardest things i have ever been to i lost my best friends(kyle and alexander) in a car crash, my granpa died of a brain tumor, I decided to move to new york with my friends and go to college here, and exactly a month and some weeks of living in new york, september 11 came to me(I live in manhattan), I saw thousands of people dying and smoke everywhere) as i was walking my dog from central park-Manhattan, i lost my friend jim and katey to the september 11 bombings. My cousin gaby was raped a week later(Paris,FRANCE) i was forced to move because of all the smoke during the bombings( i lived in my friends house for two weeks before i could come back to my home.)
THIS year has been soo hard for me, but i have learned so much, and i have lived through soo much, i'm grateful i have a girlfriend, a apartment, healthy parents, good friends, family, pets, a acting career, etc.(i'm glad i moved to new york, because i saw atleast a month of new york being normal, and i love this city with all my heart. In the end i can say i will never be quite the same person i was, but life moves on and if i die today, i die, i am not afraid of death, don't get me wrong i love life and earth and its people and etc, but things have to move on, so the year 2001 has been tough, but we grow and we learn, so 2001 is already in the past!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Inspiration comes to me here from new york and from the rest of the world<br />NIIKKI TAYLOR's fight is herroiic she lost 90% of her blood and still managed to live, all the famalies in new york, all the palins that crashed, afghanistanian women and children who have been treated like slaves by the taliban, and my native country bulgaria where thousands of people died from the muslim natiolists and the russian planes, and ofcorse all the people that died from the swiss flights, hey we all have it tough that is life.
