I cannot believe tomorrow marks the fourth anniversary of the Virginia Tech massacre. I mean, I know exactly what I was doing that morning when it happened: I had taken a shower, and was getting ready for my class that afternoon; when my roommate came in and turned on the television. We sat there and watched the news flash by. I think we were both so speechless that neither one of us even breathed while watching the news. I realized that I needed to try and get a hold of my friends at Tech (of course me like everyone else was trying to be on the phone), so eventually after getting no where with the phone I started to use Facebook. I was hoping my friends would post something so that I would know they were okay; since I had no idea what my friend's schedules' where or anything. Eventually I did get a hold of everyone I knew, and could breathe a sigh of relief; yet, I still had a pain for those lives who were lost that day. Every year that has pasted has been a wonder, on whether it could happen at Longwood, or anywhere else. I am glad that we all remember and neVer forgeT.
