He'd ask me, 'Why are you sad?'. Then I'd explain and we'd sit down and think about it. Was it really necessary, all that emotion? I'd be much better off without that negativity.

Just message me on here. Dads really are special, aren't they?

He really is. Thanks so much, I think I'll do that. It's so nice to see people who have been through the same things as I, especially since my friends from school are like, 'I share your pain,' when in reality they don't know what I'm feeling or anything.

It get's easier with each year that passes, but you never forget, I think he's watching over Sophie and me. Him and my mum both, I hope they are proud of me, my baby sister is. She googled me and sent me a text 'Omigod you're on Google sis! I'm so proud of you!'
That meant so much to me!
Frege wrote: "I haven't sorry, Maribel."No, nor New York. I have too many places still to visit on my wish list, I doubt if I'll get through it in my lifetime!

It's gotten easier, certainly in the last year, but I know I'll always miss him. He was favorite.

my mom and i went on a metro to washington d.c.
we went to buy a car that looked EXACTLY like my mom's 1999 avalon toyota.
she got it for 32,000 and was mad at not getting the online price.
three of the happiest days of my life.
the third day on a rainy muggy afternoon, she returned it.
thought she was at work so i came home singing, and undressing while walking upstairs.
screams!!!
well 92% of that story is true. 8% is the screaming part

Ingrid wrote: "no, but i would love to travel out of my boring suburban city."Well I went to Lorient today that got me out of my little shell and into a big town. My Sat Nav decided to play silly buggers and take me into the centre of the town instead of where I asked it and then refused to talk to me! I switched it off and put it back in its case and found the place myself. So much for technology!

Frege wrote: "Toronto, Ontario."In the book I'm writing the police lose the suspect somewhere in Toronto! He turns up again later in France, we know it happens there was an episode earlier this year where a young man killed a Chinese fellow student and cut his body up and left it in the left luggage in Toronto, he then calmly got on a plane and ended up in France. He was finally apprehended in Germany!
I am from the United Kingdom. A county called 'Surrey' that is in the south east of the UK. I currently live in the countryside, but have dreams of working in London one day.
O.O That is an interesting story that would probably give me nightmares! xD If you need any information about the city, ask me and I'll do what I can to help you!
I am from Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Chile (:
I'm from Asheville, North Carolina, USA. (Candler, actually, just west of Asheville, but no one's ever heard of it. People have actually heard of Asheville because of the Biltmore House, among other things. But mostly Biltmore.)

No one on here from Granada? Just read an interesting article on retiring in Granada low budget retiring with low taxes. Lol I won't be staying in france if I make the best sellers list, the new President has decided people with money will be paying 75% tax on their earnings! Au Revoir Monsieur Holland, the people are starting to realise it was a mistake putting the left wing in power, because all the big money will migrate leaving the poor to pick up the tab!
I've been part of this group a while but only just thought to post here. I'm from Brisbane, Australia but lived pretty much all over Australia.
Hi, I am from Chennai, India. I come from the north-eastern part of the country but relocated to this Southern city about a year ago due to my job.Since there are so SO many languages in our nation, it gets difficult to communicate with people of different states at times. There are some languages that bear no resemblance whatsoever to each other and learning a new one is always a chore.
Anyways, happy to see people from all over here :)
Wow where everyone lives sounds so much more exciting. I'm from the US California, really close to San Francisco. I speak English and I can understand and write Spanish very well but speak it, to much of an american accent. :O
Seriously? California and you call others exciting? XD I would kill to be in California!!
I'm in South Dakota. Great plains! Represent!
I'm a Texan stranded in Tennessee, trying to make his way to The Keys.
Cambridge, England. A city of exquisite antiquity and very little else. :-(
South Africa - born and raised in Cape Town, but now resident in Pretoria for the last 2 years. Cape Town will always be home, though ;).
Yorkshire, England. Home of many a writer and classic novels.

Roslyn, New York. About twenty minutes from NYC (in good traffic). Long Island. Nice town. Small. Annoying sometimes.
