    Today, my uncle died.
    At 1:00AM this morning.
    You see, my cousins from vietnam are living with us, their family consists of a mom(aunt), a dad(uncle), two boys(cousins, both above 16), and a girl(cousin, 18).
    They're staying with us until they can get enough money to get an apartment.
    This is the second family that's lived with us.
    Another family also lived with us before, but that's another story.
    Both families are related to my dad.
    Anyways, I was sleeping last night when I was wakened by the screaming and crying of my cousin, Giang(the girl).
    I didn't know what was going on.
    It was kind of scared so I just stayed in my bed.
    Their whole family soon was screaming and I stayed up practically the whole night.
    When I was in the car, driving to school, I asked my dad what happened.
    He said the night before, my uncle got home from work and was just sitting downstairs.
    Then he got up but then he fell to the ground.
    Everyone started panicing, and they woke my dad and he took my uncle to the hospital.
    On the way there, he died.
    They found out that he had a heart attack.
    It was suprising because he seemed pretty healthy.
    Everyone in my cousin's family was crying.
    But I wasn't. I think I was the only one who wasn't crying.
    Which is really weird because I'm really sensitive and I'm the type of girl who cries at old, corny, romantic movies.
    But I didn't cry at all.
    Well, part of it I think has to do with the fact I wasn't that close to him.
    My cousin's family all spoke Vietnamese and not much English.
    I don't speak any Viestnamese so I'm not that close to any of them.
    I'm sad, but I don't cry.
    I remember the last time someone died and that was my bunny.
    I didn't cry when he died either.
    But then like two months later, I remember crying for two hours for no reason.
    Thankfully it was on a weeked and I was by myself.
    Maybe I have some kind of delayed reaction?
    Well, my dad told me that my uncle was going to be cremated.
    It's really weird.....I mean I just saw him yesterday.
    I see him everyday, right before I leave for school.
    It was weird not seeing him today.....
