i remember hearing about her death as i was getting dressed in my hotel room (holiday inn on beacon st in brookline) the morning i moved into my freshman dorm at boston college. [oh, fitz.]
my dad didn’t understand why her death bothered me so much that day, and i probably couldn’t articulate the reason either. i just remember that it scared me because she was so young and here i was, this little 18 year old girl, about to abandon my family and live out in new england all alone.
of course, 1.5 months later 9/11 happened and i spent the next two months massively and completely regretting my decision to go so far away for school.
and here i am 8 years later, still electing to live in boston, so far away.
weird.
