When first given the assignment to write my own obituary, i was very unhappy about it. I felt that if i don't even like talking about death, and i don't handle it well when love ones die, why would i want to write my own? I waited til the day before it was due to write it, and luckily a classmate of mine, help me write about my obituary in a away that didn't both me. We were told to attach two obituaries that we used to our own. I used a family friends obituary, she had died over the weekend and her funeral was that Monday. So it really sucked to write my own because i don't handle death well, and there i was reading a long time family friends obituary to help write mine. I was angry to do the assignment. I got over it and wrote it. I don't fear death, i fear how i will die, that is why i didn't write a cause of death, because I'd rather die painless in my sleep of old age, with my husband, like The Notebook!
