Gotta keep your head up Hawker, I know it's tough losing someone you love. I had a friend die in a pretty bad car accident last year, and it seems like just yesterday I was talking with her and us screwing around in my math class.
What I found helps is just listening to music, but that might be different for you. For me it drowns out the rest of the world and I don't have to focus on whatever it is that's f**king me in the back of the mind.
