we all met in the fourth grade . and from then on we all became best frenz and established OG LkC . it was us, you, and jascha . and 6 years later it was just us and you . we all had to conquer many obstacles . but for you . they were even bigger than we all could imagine . you don`t know how much we love you and how much we miss you already . you were our best fren in the whole wide world . but we know that you are in a better place where you are even happier and where the problems you had here you won`t have in heaven . now you can finallly be with your parents and your grandpa . i know that you are watching us from heaven and protecting us . even though you are gone . you are still inside our hearts even closer to us . we love you so much asia . Even though it took us a long time to write this because everytime I tried or even thought about writing something I burst into tears. And I was thinking why are we crying? Because I know that if we knew how good and well you are now we would be happy. It's just because we miss you and you were the best thing that happen to us . you don`t know how much you mean to us . you were a part of you and will always remain a part of us . thank you for sharing your life with us . we all truely blessed to have an angel like you to be with us . we will never forget our tradition of the first day of school and how it was the first time I (sivjang) took the bus . And I (amber) will never forget that you are my dump buddy, your house was the only place I could do my business . we will never forget our TRL moments and how much fun we had and how you almost lost your $90 dollar glasses and how you got trampled on and you didn't even get any money and how you and me (amber) faught over Lloyd Banks . we`ll see you when we get there . remember it`s OG LkC FOREVER . sivjang & amber
when you feel that life is perfect, and your family and friends around you seem well and happy, your whole world turns upside down & you can't help but think, "is it my fault?" It took something like this to make realize how much i've been missing and how much i haven't done.
she went through so many trials in her life, and we all thought that because she made it through it all, God would bless her and that she'd have so many good things lying ahead of her. She was such a strong person, putting aside her own feelings to keep other people from going through the anguish that she was going through. Although we lost contact in the last year, i still considered her one of my best friends because she was always there for me when i needed her. Always there to cheer me up. Always there to settle things. Always honest with herself and with us. Always. But i can't honestly say that i have always been there for her. For that, i am guilty. I've grown alongside with her since 4th grade and i let a lil distance and different settings keep me from staying close to her. I'm not sure if you can hear me, but i am deeply, deeply, extremely sorry for all the pain that i've caused you in the last 6 years. i'll say a prayer for you and your family every night. we love you asia. May you rest in peace. <3 love jascha
9:13 Sitting in front of my computer, not thinking of anything in particular, wasting away the hours in my ignorant bliss. How could we have known? Eric called me, and said ‘have you heard about Asia yet?’ Me, in my pessimists mind thought, ‘what? Did she die?’ I never expected to be right.
Jascha’s right, I thought, since she had been through so much, the worst was behind her, and she had her whole life ahead of her. She was bright, and intelligent and happy, always happy. No one could ever have imagined this would happen, it couldn’t have been foreseen, and yet, I still feel guilty. I only knew her a short while, mostly in 8th grade, but I still considered her a wonderful, close and loving friend, because she was. I remember coming across her site in the midst of the xanga-craze, and being happy; I had found some people I knew, I could keep somewhat in touch with their lives even if it was from a distance. I didn’t make a great effort to keep in touch, because I let my friends sort of, fade into the distance, taking all the times we spent together for granted. I remember thinking to myself ‘they’ll still be her tomorrow.’ I know I can’t blame myself, but I can’t help it. I will probably always feel a little guilty.
Asia was a wonderful person. In ever memory I have, she was always up beat and happy, brimming with love and compassion for everyone around her. She was bubbly and enthusiastic, no matter what happened. She went into every situation with a big beautiful smile, ready to make the best of anything life threw at her. There is no way anyone could possibly put all the beauty of her soul into words. Her presence had a power of its own, and if she was around, everything seemed happy, no worries. She was truly a beautiful person, and I’m sure wherever she is now, she still has a big smile on her face, and she is surrounded by people who love her, like we did, like we do, and like we always will. I wish I could have said goodbye, even if it wasn’t in a goodbye form. I know your out there, watching over us, so I just wanted to say, thank you for coming into our lives, thank you for being there. We will miss you and love you forever. Rest in peace, wherever you may be. ~Rigel
Asia...oh my god this is not happening. I cant even believe that you're gone right now, I just cant come to grips with it. You were one of my best friends and the nicest person I have ever known. I cant believe that such a thing would happen to you. I remember all the fun times we had in Japanese class and how we were always messin around. And thursday the last day of school when we ditched together and went to fendis and had so much fun at the movies. Its just so hard to think that we wont be doing that again ever. I remember the last thing you said to me on saturday was to be happy and to have fun. Its pretty hard to do that without you here but I know that you're in a better place right now. I wish I had one last chance to tell you how good of a friend you've been to me and how hard it would be to live without you. I miss you already but I know that you were a true angel and you were meant to be in heaven. So until the day I see you, take care of yourself Asia and know that we all love you down here...never forget that. We will always remember you and we know well have an angel watching over us.
Love Always, Alex Boyadjian...
RIP ASIA THORPE

This is something you would never think happeneds to someone you know. But today it did. WHen i heard the news, it was like sureal and i was thinkin back to 6th grade and 7th and 8th, how asia touched all the lives she knew. I will neverforget what Asia wrote in my 6th grade yr book, "Remember: It takes a minute to notice someone, an hour to like some one, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone." As i know for those that read this. No one will forget Asia. May you Rest in Peace. Peter Thomas
OMG......I neva eva thought this could happened. I remember I read your xanga and the next day as I walked out on the field to launch rockets I asked your" Hey gurl....Why are you going to the hospital?" and you told me " Just a little operation....I'll be fine". Oh god......I remember doing all our econ projects together and catching the bus with you every Monday, sweetheart. You were so sweet and kind.....always laughing or being funny. Science with you was wonderful. known you since 5th grade babydoll.....god I've known you for 4 years. I just want you to know I care for you babydoll and you will be missed, and neva forgotten. Rest In Peace, sweetie. I hope God knows he has one special angel in his hands.
Jazmine
P.S. I want to send my condolences to her family, along with a card and flowers to help them with Asia's passing. If anyone knows the address or phone numbers, please email me at reggaegurl@hotmail.com
Asia I miss you so much... we went to different high schools and we lost touch I still thought of you as one of my best friends... I remember in chorus on graduation day when I started to cry because I was so upset to be leaving all of my friends and you were the first one to comfort me you reached over and grabbed my hand and gave it a squeeze and then flashed me smile... and also your laughter and your smile... I will never forget that smile... when I was upset and you smiled I couldn't help but not smile.. you had that effect on people and I can't believe you are gone.... it is a nightmare... the most terrible one I have ever experienced and I can't run away from it or wake up from it.... I wish someone would hit me, slap me, pinch me something to wake me up from this nightmare that keeps me from ever seeing that smile or hearing your voice.... how could someone like you have this happen... we all love you and miss you and it huts us to think that you kept this to yourself... I know you don't want us to be sad, upset, crying... but we can't stop.... we miss you Asia and we love you... Love always and forever Becca Lowder..... RIP Asia :'( we will miss you always you will never going be far from our hearts
i cannot believe this is happening... i just talked to asia a few days ago...and the last thing i said was "do you hate me? .... ok here's alex" i had a dream that she hated me and left and couldnt talk to her.... ironic, i dont know.... then on the last day of school me, asia, alex, and mark all ditched and went to fendi's.... she was so nice to me, and now shes gone. i cant help but thinking maybe this is a dream.. out of all people you woulnt think it would happen to asia. my eyes hurt so much from crying and all i can think about is asia and the time we've had with everyone... i dont remember her ever really being angry or anything... shes always been optomistic i think.... i will miss her and she will always be in my heart..... I LOVE YOU ASIA!!

i will never forget the moment when doug told me "something went wrong = with the surgery. they're pulling the plug tomorrow." i couldnt believe = it. i didnt want to believe it. i went through in my mind the last = moment i had with her at school. it was during finals week. i was about = to go to my science final, 6th period. asia came over. i went over and = hugged her as hard as i could, and told her that she was awesome and = that i love her to death...forgetting the fact that she had to go to the = hospital. i'm glad i did that, knowing that she knows i care about her. = but at the same time, i feel guilty not knowing her better. we grew = apart over the years. but she's still the cute, loving, happy person = i've always known. i hope she's safe and happy where she is right now. i = will never ever EVER forget her...I LOVE YOU ASIA!!! i'm gonna miss = you...
love always and forever,

i haven't gotten the chance to meet you but reading everyone's thought about you has changed me, to make me live everyday to the fullest and to cherish my friends and not take them for granted. You must have been someone really special because even people who've met but didn't really know you had teardrops fallin like a waterfall. I wish that i had gotten to know who you were and been able to feel the kindness you passed on to other people. Even though we've never met you've touched me and for that you'll forever be missed and loved.
Much Love,
Jannie Chan
on june 17 at 2:34pm, sivjang came in the room crying. i didnt know what happend. she was mumbling words i didnt understand and then it came to me.. something happend.. then finally she was understandable. something happend to you and i didnt understand why.. why you? why someone so close to my little sister. since i started high school, i had to let go many of my friends. but this one was different. it wasnt my friends this time, it was you. my little sister`s best friend and my friend too. i didnt know what to say to her. she had never faced a situation like this before. being an older sister you try to shelter your younger siblings. you dont want them to face the situations you been through. how can you shelter this from your sister. something that hits you hard too. out of all my sister`s friends.. you were one of them i can relate to. you loved rock music as much as i do. asia im already missing you and the dorky ways you are. you were one of sivjang`s friends that keeps her happy. i saw you grow up. seeing you when you were in 4th grade. a little skinny girl. and now finally in high school 9th grade.. still a skinny little girl and more mature. you never changed. you are still the sweet little asia. someone i can always pick and make fun of. i never know something like this can happend. espcially someone like you. but now your finally happy. up in heaven with your parents and grandpa. dont worry about your grandma she safe here. i promise you. i love you asia .. i`ll see you up in heaven soon..

I wish this were a nightmare. I just heard yesterday that you are gone. I thought it was joke. But then I realized its true. You’re really gone. Why in the world did this have to happen to you? Why? I didn't’t ever think that this would happen to you. During the week of finals I saw you and you were laughing and smiling. I never thought that this situation would happen to you. I didn't’t know you were going into surgery. I have known Asia ever since the forth grade. She’s always been a caring, nice, considerate, compassion person with moral values. Meeting her was one of the greatest things in my life. She changed my whole life. She was not only a good friend but also good teacher. I learned many things in life from Asia. Her death is a lesson to all of us to cherish each and every second, and to live life to its fullest. I’ll always reminisce the fond memories. I would mess with you and you would get mad. But now, I can’t do that any more. You’re gone. But it is ok, because you’re in a much better place now. There is no pain for you anymore. You’re really an angel now. Asia, I love you. We all love you and you will always be within our heart.
Love always and forever,
Lyndon
P.S. I know everybody is sad about Asia’s death. But we all have to face the truth. Asia is gone, and I am positive that she would want everybody to be strong during this time.
REST IN PEACE ASIA... May God keep you happy and take special care of you. We will forever have a place in our hearts for you, gurlie. We love you, we miss you, we won't ever forget you. You truly were an angel on earth. From us with much luv, The BBs ( Regina, Jazmine, Miranda, Alaina, Denise, and Staci)
this year has flew by really fast. i don't think that you ever knew who = i was, we had one class together. even though we have never really = talked or anything like that, you have really touched me. i regret not = talking to you this whole school year and not getting the chance to know = who you were. may your soul rest in peace and you will always be missed = and forever loved.
love always,
krystle woolheater
Gurl! I'm gonna miss you and you know that! I just wish I would have talked to you before your surgery and right now i have lots of regrets but I know you wouldn’t want that right now. and I also know that you wouldn’t want to see us cry cuz you were always so happy and loving and I don’t think I ever saw you mad. You were the happiest, most loving, caring, and all around great person. I'm gonna miss the three years we would have had left at poly and all the good times and laughs we would have had. I'm gonna miss english, science, lunch, and my days with you. You were the glow of happiness that made everyone smile. You made everyone laugh and you had a positive effect on everyone. I could always count on you to put a big smile on my face and well...I could always count on you for everything. I'm most definitely gonna miss seeing and talking to you everyday. I just wish I could have made my last time with you better. I just wish I could have said goodbye. But I know you're in a much better place up there with God and I know you're enjoying it. You're probably playing on your dream drum set rite now! Enjoy it in heaven and remember you'll always be in my heart. I love you! <3

can't believe it. When Maggie first told me I went into denial, I still feel like I am in some kind of horrible dream. I remember meeting you in 6th grade, you were one of the nicest people I had ever met. I enjoyed every class I had with you. You were always welcoming and kind to everyone you met. I am so sorry that I didn't talk to you much this year. The few waves to each other now and then just don't make up for not talking to you. I was very upset when I learned on the first day of high school that I didn't have any classes with you. I will always remember chorus in middle school and how much we enjoyed our time together. I still just can't believe that I will not see you smiling as you walk through the campus when I go back to school next year. We all love you Asia, and will never forget you. R.I.P. Heather Berryhill

Well, asia, we had some good times. remember how in 5th grade you taught us the right way to eat a fortune cookie. our the asian oreo cookie sponsor. It was so very fun having you in Japanese class and listening Mr. Fillipow gripe about teaching.You are the shining star in that dark empty sky. I am sorry for making fun of "the white guy" and how you liked him. I should have let you enjoy it. I am sorry your life was so hard and will see you soon enough. Save me a seat in heaven.
I Love you so very much!

PS: This was Gods will, we all have different thoughts of why this happened and how WRONG it is! Asia will continue to be in my mind and remind me of the frailty of life and how precious it is.
OMG! I never thought that someonne that I knew would die. Asia I didn't know you that well but it is true..i never saw you mad. I used to talk to you almost everyday after school when we and some other people would wait for the bus. I remeber the time that you laid on my volleyball bag with Mark on the ground and i left without it. You found somebody I knew to give it to, so I could get it back. That was sooo nice. I mean you didn't even have to do that. When i heard about what happened i was lost for words. It seems as though the best people are always the ones that leave you. I just got in a fight with one of my close friends and now that i think about it, it was a stoopid fight. I've learnde to never take people for granted and if I want something or someone i need to grab it now. Thanks Asia...R.I.P
much love,
Jewel Nicholson
I never knew who Asia truly was. I had just found out she had died. I = checked everyone`s AIM profile, and it said "RIP Asia." I went to my = sixth grade yearbook to check who she was. I saw her picture. I still = remember her face from last year. Every time I saw her, she had a smile. = She seemed to touch everyone. Rest and peace. I hope the best of luck to = you in your next life. We`ll miss you.

Asia ..
This seems so wrong having to write a goodbye to you. But no, I`m not gonna say goodbye. Hopefully, we'll see each other again .. that is, if I am deserving enough to go to the beautiful place where we all know you are. I am deeply sorry for not being close to you. I feel terrible. I also feel terrible for knowing that this is the most attention I've ever given you .. now that you're gone I care the most? That is so evil .. but I don't regret the way I treated you. Well, who wouldn't be nice to you? You were one of the sweetest people I've ever known. I also despise having to write about you in the past tense. Asia, you really did not deserve your life on earth to be taken away. I know you could have had so much ahead of you. And clearly, so did many other people because we are all mourning for you .. even people like me who weren't best friends with you. However, this might actually be a blessing for you. If you were in pain, you aren't anymore, and you're in the most pleasant place
possible .. with your family! We've all cried for you, and probably still will, but then we'll realize, this is all about you, and this may be better for you. And you deserve the best. We are going to miss you like crazy, and there are going to be some awkward times for us when reality clicks into our heads and we realize you really are farther away from us and that life is actually very delicate, but we'll still have you in our hearts, prayers, thoughts, words, and memories. Forgetting you just isn't an option. So Asia, rest in peace, as they say. In a way, this all kind of makes sense if you think about it positively. You've spent time with us for a while, and now it's time for you with your family! God can be pretty amazing huh? Well take care for now, because this isn't goodbye. It's a new and better beginning for you. We love you so much.
- - Cassandra
Asia... what can I possibly say that will make anyone feel better about this?!!! Nothing... everyone is grieving for you, even the ones who didn't know you that well... are grieving. We never really got close, and I feel bad for not taking advantage of having you as a closer friend. I've known you only for about 2 or 3 years and I have to say, you were always the one smiling and laughing. Even though I didn't know you that well, I still grieve for you, I still love you, and I will still miss you... You have taught me a great lesson, and I love you and thank you for that!!! You have taught me to never take life or friends for granted, because one day, God might just take that away... not because he is mean and cruel, but because he has a better plan for you in heaven... No one really wants to grasp the idea that you are gone, but the truth is... you are. You have taught us all a great lesson... and we are thankful for the prescious moments of our lives that we got to spend with you. May your heart and soul rest in peace... you are always and forever in our hearts...

although we didnt talk that much this past year, just remembering that day, the hour, the minute, when finding out. i hate the fact that we lost contact this year. im still in shock when i think about you. but i understand that we both could have been better friends and me not taking advantage of the time that we had makes me feel awful. back at hughes we were close. everyone is still talking about how they can't believe what happened, and just knowing the fact that things could have been said and done and that we will never see her again or talk to her, and that's true. the shock and disbelief are normal when finding out that something has happened to a close and dear friend. words cannot describe what has happened but everyone here knows that feeling. but the thing is that knowing asia, she would never want us to feel this way. the least we can do is remember her and keep her and her family in our prayers, we love you asia and you will never be forgotten.

"...YES ! WE`RE GOING TO THE MESA" screamed kristen payton .. "what`s wrong nicole .. YOU SCARED ?!" i replied with "no i`m not scared .. why would i be ?" .. then along came ASIA "don`t worry .. i`m afraid too" .. that`s when it all began .. finally someone who was NICE IN MY CABIN @ hi-hill ! [ = ) ] .. as we walked along that narrow path .. she held on TIGHT to my arm .. as we secretly pulled out my mini flashlight .. [ remember that asia ? ] .. we walked for what seemed like ages .. and then as it got darker [ and our mini flashlight was told to be turned off ] i could feel asia`s nails in my arm .. [ haha ] .. she end up sitting in front of me .. and i was just WAITING AND WAITING for it to be over .. and it was .. we walked back to roadside [ our cabin ] .. and she came up to my bunk and whispered ".. it wasn`t so bad after all " ..
i cannot find the words or emotion to explain to myself that you`re gone .. i feel lost .. confused .. mad .. angry .. SAD .. and unaswered .. was this the end of your journey ? did you live life to the fullest ? i`m uncertain of those questions because we hadn`t talked since 6th grade !! 3 years .. i`m soo sorry .. i wish i could`ve said goodbye .. you were always so nice .. and there was never a time i didn`t see you smile and i will always miss you .. i wish i could`ve spent a lot more time getting to know you .. but i guess i was afraid .. `cause i wasn`t smart enough >> [ = S ] .. buut .. i knew that didn`t matter.. BUT I WANTED TO IMPRESS YOU ! haha .. i really don`t know what to say .. i`m speechless .. i was reading what people wrote to you .. and i couldn` t read after 2 words .. choked up crying .. buut .. i know you`re with the heavenly father and you`re able to rest in peace .. i won`t think of this as goodbye .. buut a .. "i`ll see you up there in a bit ! love you" .. soo ..
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. --Matthew 6:19-21
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. --John 14:27
see you in heaven, > NiCoLe TOUCH <
I have known you since 4th grade and this news tore me apart. I admit we were not the best of friends, but you were always there, as I am sure you are now.
I've been through a lot this year and I broke down when I heard about your death. I spent a whole day reminiscing of the good times. From Longfellow to Hughes to Poly.I always saw you and knew what a great person you were. You were such a strong person and you had been through more in your 15 years than many people have had to deal with in an entire lifetime. For that I will always respect you. I will always love you.
At 8:37 pm on Thursday, June 17, 2004 a piece of my hope for humankind was ripped away. People assured me that there was a reason for your death, that God has a plan.My uncertainty and skepticism remains but I can only wish that you are in a place where pain does not flourish and sadness does not dare come near. For now I can only try to rebuild the hope that your death has torn from my heart. The process is slow, but when thinking of you, I know it is well worth the effort. It wasn't your time to go yet, your star had not yet burned out. I see your face in these memories and I try to smile, but they're all covered by black clouds. And I still sit here, so overwhelmed by questions, trying to look up for answers when suddenly the light breaks through. We will someday meet again. Until that day, I'll hold on to times I spent with you. I'll yearn for the times I'll spend with you soon. I used to cry when I saw your face in my memories, but now I smile. I smile because there are no black clouds in my heart. There are no black clouds in my mind. There are no black clouds.

OMG... i cant believe this is happening... I know i just met you last summer at church camp.. but you were a really great friend to me. I was so grateful that i met you. YOU made my first year at camp wonderful.. I remember how you were always cheerful and er... sometimes really LOUD? hehe. Being in the same cabin was great... it was so fun. You made our group a whole. I was so excited and looking foward to seeing you again this year at camp... I'm so sad that i wont get to see you at camp.. but i know for sure that we'll see eachother again. I know that you are in a great place and that you are in His great hands. May you rest in peace.
Love, Alyssa Numata
Wow Asia.... I am going to miss you so much.... You were a cool friend.... You were so nice.... Everyone knows that.... The smile that you had on your face everyday made Hughes such a great place..... I would of never thought that the your last day would come so soon..... I heard it from a friends mother.... When I heard that.... I started to cry so hard.... I know we weren't all that great of friends.... But I still thought I could count on you with anything.... Today I still can't believe that your gone.... But truly I know that you are still here.... You are a spirit sent down to watch over us.... You will never be forgotten.... Rest in Peace Asia Thorpe..... We love you so much..... Always and Forever
