Well...today is 20 days after Alicia's accident. She fell early in the monring on 20Mar10. The first day of Spring and my brother's bday.
We still are receiving acceptance letters and miscellanous information from colleges. So far, she was accepted at Colorado College, UC Davis, Willamette Univeraity, & Seattle College. She absolultely fell in love with Colorado College. I have asked the colleges to allow me access to her essays and personal statements. When she was writing these, she gaurded them very closely and would not allow us to see them.
I'm following up on a suggestion made during her memorial service to collate an e-book with her writing and photography. This sounds like a nice suggestion. Tamsical will be providing her journals and essays. I'll have to get her pictures from her photography teacher to pull this together. I also started writing a poem/note about my feelings. Hopefully I can finish it.
I walked down to Tennessee Valley beach today with my friend Sandra. It was a cold, windy, overcast day. We hiked up to the bunker and placed new flowers on the memorial. We hiked up further to the cliffs where she was hanging out that night. Why do I keep going back to this spot? Sandra asked if I feel closer to her there but I don't. I go there because that is the last place she was seen alive.
