The Fly
So, I'm relatively new here, but please be kind. I didn't really know how else to let everything out.
I am a senior at an all girls boarding school. There are 67 of us in the entire school.
A lot of parents think that they can just send their girls off to school and that it will magically get rid of all of their problems. The only issue with that is that most of the other girls were sent there for problems too, therefor negatively influencing the rest of them that would otherwise be getting better.
Last night 2 of our girls went out with 2 boys from our brother school, a military academy. One of our girls was under the influence of lord knows what at the time. The boys were driving and got into an accident. They knew that the girls were pretty badly hurt and took them to some trailer in the middle of nowhere, took away their cell phones, and left them there because they did not want to get in trouble with the police. One of the girls who was in better condition called a girl from school while in the middle of the woods telling her where she thought that they were and what had happened. Long story short, one of the girls has 2 broken ribs, a laceration to her liver, and internal bleeding. She is in stable condition and in surgery as I type. The other is in a coma and in a larger hospital 1.5 hours away. They aren't sure if she'll wake up because of the drugs she had taken beforehand.
I know its not my fault, but I'm the mature responsible one at the school. unlike the rest of the girls, I came here because I wanted a better education than the one I had. I feel responsible for everything these girls do. I knew that the one in a coma was big into the drug thing and pretty often saw her under their influence. I knew that she was doing shit like that. And I didn't tell our Dean or anyone about it because I thought that I could handle it myself. Nothing had gotten completely out of control yet.
Hopefully both of the girls will be fine and come through. You never know with these things. I keep telling myself and the rest of the girls that the both of them (esp. the one in a coma) will be fine, but I'm having a hard time really believing it. Its so sad to see such wonderful, beautiful girls be destroyed. I've never dealt with death before except my great grandparents, and wouldn't know who to handle this situation if it furthered. Like I said, I'm the responsible one who everyone comes to to be strong and not how emotion. How could I be there for all the other girls if i couldn't even handle it myself.
By the way both boys, upon returning to school that night were arrested. Their charges are undetermined as of right now.
Oh, and I don't believe in God, but the girl in a coma does. What is your alls opinion of praying for someone even if you don't believe it yourself. It can't hurt, right?
thanks,
Hannah
