Napalm Riot

Hey man. I'm sorry for your loss as well. I know the whole death all to well, as I'm sure many people on the Riot do. When I was 10, my mother died in a car accident. On Mother's Day. Thank God she got my card the day before. When I was a senior in high school, I had 3 good friends die at 3 different times. Too many funerals for a 17 year old to have to sit through. All I can is that times heals all wounds, man. It really does.

As for the girlfriend, all I can say is, you gotta do what you gotta do. You're young, man. This doesn't have to be the one and I know the pain well. Hell, my girlfriend is right near right now and it's great, but starting in the summer and all next year, we could be as far away as 12 hours. One hour isn't bad at all, just make the time you can for her, but make sure she's doing the same for you. Try not to pile everything on to yourself if you don't have to.

Things will get better, whether it be in your benefit time-wise or not, they will. The trick is to start every day fresh and try not to get bogged down in those things that will slow you down. Good luck, dude.

P.S. Your uncle is the man. I've never had a relative get me kick ass games like that, except my dad back he was "Santa".
