well, story behind it?
when it happened, the 2 main questions on our mind were 'how' and
'why'. 'how' is relatively simple to answer. yeah, she hanged
herself. it's the 'why' that i, as her ex-classmate, ex-cca mate
and ex-project mate is still trying to find out. we have no
answers.
she had everything going for her - good family, good financial
circumstances, good friends (she was a great friend of everyone),
good results, fantastic personality. definitely the most popular
girl of the class.
perhaps there were some other circumstances i wasn't not aware of.
she probably left a note for her family and some closer friends. i
tell myself it's probably due to depression.
but that is really immaterial at this point in time.
i remember the priest at the church telling us how we should
remember her for who she was when she was alive and not that one
specific incident where she ended her life. but it's really hard,
seeing the misery and pain she's been inflicting on her mother all
these years.
you really pity the mother and there's nothing you can do. after
all, we only remind her of the happy past and tragic present.
so to all who have even contemplated suicide, don't even think
twice or thrice. go talk to someone, call SOS, whatever. because it
may be the end for you, but only the start of a lifetime of sadness
for you family and friends.
yup.
