okay, bad news, my last living great grandparent died on friday. Everyone knew he was a millionaire, and everyone was greedily, wondering where some of his money might end up, well that was answered by a phone call yesterday evening. Good news, My great grandfather, set up a few accounts for his grand children. My dad and I will receive $500.00 a month for 2 years. Thats $12,000 dollars. Considering he has ALOT of grandchildren, he spent a pretty penny between everyone, and the rest of his fortune goes to my grandpa, who is already by his own accord, a multi-millionaire. So, RIP pops. Everyone will miss you and thanks for looking out for everyone.

Awh, I’m sorry to hear. I don’t know my own personal family very well so I am sure when my family passes away the only real people that it will hit home with is my immediate family: Mom, Dad, brother or sister. Other than that, I’m closer to my boyfriend’s family and it killed me when his Grandmother passed away. Oh it broke my heart. I don’t know what I’ll do when Grandpa passes away. I am even closer to him than to Grandma.
Hmm. About the games, I’ve got no idea. Do you have an x-box? They are junk, the 360s, until you get the permanent fix. If you just get refurbished ones from the repair center well - they just break again and again. But we permanently fixed ours, and I think I might turn it into a day job. Charge people like $50.00 for me to fix their x-box which is pretty good considering you’re forking out almost $300.00 for the repair center to fix them and it doesn’t even fix them. Mind you, I’d only fix the RROD problems. Don’t know about anything else. Ha ha.
Um. I’m mostly into Halo. I love Oblivion too. That’s a good one. I’m waiting for Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise because I’m a total dweeb. Hell I was playing Halo and on the other team was a kid with the gamer tag “Turtwig101″ I was with a couple friends and I was like oh my god that kid’s tag is a pokemon. They just started laughing at the fact that I knew that. Ha ha ha. Yeah…I’m a nerd.
I don’t know about the PS3. I don’t know how, but our two year old is super into the PS3. Every time we go into EB she runs right for it and begs to get it. But we won’t get it until it drops again. She’s a major Halo fan. She is like the biggest fan of Master Chief. She’ll sit beside me and point guys out and everything. It’s so funny and cute. Mind you I remind her it is just a game.
But again, I am sorry about your Great Grandfather. I don’t know any of my greats.

i’m sorry to hear about that - but it sounds like his life wasn’t too shabby, and he was your great grandfather? wow, i haven’t had a grandfather in awhile, so it really does sound like he had an eventful and long life, you know, with the money and seeing his great granddaughter.

Money really drives people apart. It`s sad, really… who knew green pieces of paper with dead presidents on them would rule this entire universe someday?
I`m sorry about your great grandfather. Depending on what you believe, I`m sure he`s in a much better place. That`s so cliche` but so true. Be strong, love.
