Today I just found out a kid from my school was killed. He died from a train collision... I knew him. Not as well as his friends but I seem to be the only one from my irl friend group that knew him better. I guess I was just a little mutual friend.

Now I didn't know Cam all that well. We didn't always talk in gym class which was the only period we had together. What I did know though was he was a nice guy in grade seven. How he asked me how I was, always helping me out, and the more it happened the more I thought he liked me! Of course that was never the case since he never asked me to the dance, but eventually all my friends and I called him cheesecake as a secret code because we did the same thing with one of my friends crush. In high school Cam was kinda a prankster. We had that computer class I ranted about together. He would always scare me the moment he got a chance. I don't remember if I was ever mad at him, but I would always be ashamed of myself for falling for it. Honestly he was a sneaky, but nice funny guy overall.

I wonder how Cam's friends are taking this. I know I don't know him as well as they did and I can't bare to imagine how I would feel to lose such a good friend. Makes me wonder what the parents are going through...

The more I think about it the more I realize how cruel life can be. It doesn't matter the age, and anyone can die. Our lives are just insignificant when you think about it, and even the smallest things can kill us. But seeing it actually unfold here? Where I live? It's hard to realize what's actually happened. I'm still in a state or shock and surprise, and I didn't even know Cam that well! It's just hard to realize what's so easily dangerous in this world, even a simple bike ride... or something worse.

I just hope Cam is in a better place looking down on his friends and smiling. I hope he rests well...

Rest Easy Cam. You earn it...

Bye bye..
