sad news

so today at work has been pretty hard because of the sad news i heard today...

the amazing girl in my sorority, jill costello passed away today

:(

she was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that spread to her bones, breasts, and kidneys just a year ago.

jill was truly an inspiration to everyone at berkeley, she spoke for so many events, raised thousands and thousands of dollars with her 5k walks/runs for the bonnie j. addario lung cancer foundation, she coxed the varsity eight to win the pac 10 championships for crew! and graduation, sooo amazing...

its really hard to read about the news here at work because i can't really cry or anything, but i am in shock, its a weird feeling...

we are having another 5k for her in september so i want to raise as much money as i can! please make a donation here:
