It has been a year
It has been exactly a year since my dad passed away. May felt like it didn’t happen without him here. My birthday felt like it didn’t happen either. I don’t know. There’s still a void there. I’m not sure if anything can fill it in for a couple of years.
I’ve been doing a lot to keep his spirit alive. Not that it’s too difficult, but sometimes if I do it, it makes it hard for me to breathe. A good example would be Manchester United emerging as UEFA Champions League champion. If he was alive today, I can imagine the grin on his face for the rest of the day. He is the biggest Manchester United fan in the world. How he would jump for joy, I can only imagine. That is why I love the two cups that the team has won this season. Because I know he would be happy, and that in itself makes me happy.
What also makes me happy is I know which David who won American Idol season 7. (Spoiler after the jump.)

Vote difference: 12 million votes. Thank goodness. I was rooting so much for Cook, because he deserved it so much. Very talented guy. I can see him singing great songs. Go Cook!! ![]()
Oh, and it’s funny, my dad’s name = David. TRUE THAT. Haha. I so love fooling around. ![]()
