rotae: Ritchie Neville of the band FIVE headbanging (Random: Australia: Crazy)
I know it's everywhere, but this is for me, not you, so deal.

I... I really liked Heath Ledger. Seriously. I felt... I dunno... somehow close to him, in an odd way. I mean, he's not like a Ewan, Ritchie or Tom to me (thank goodness), but even though I'd never even met him, I still admired, respected and liked him very much.

I guess it's because not a lot of Australian actors make it big (and still end up having me like them, lol)... I guess I kinda cling to the ones I do like (Nicole and Huge).

And he was meant to start production on the Terry Gilliam film soon too... :( reports are saying he wasn't done on Batman: The Dark Knight yet either... but I suspect he was.

Heath Ledger made me laugh, he made me cry, he was bloody good at his job, and I will absolutely miss him terribly.

He's making me cry just writing this.

I think the common opinion is that he took sleeping pills and overdosed... if that's correct... I can't imagine being absolutely just THAT desperate.

I'm so, so sorry, Heath.

What kind of pain must you have been in to do that?

My thoughts are with his family; especially his daughter Matlida.

Peace,
Rotae

I read about this and was absolutely floored. I have been a huge fan of Heath Ledger for almost 10 years not, circa 10 Things, and I could not believe this.

You have to feel badly when any person feels so lost that they committ suicide, intentionally or accidentally/subconciously.

I honestly hope that the autopsy will reveal that it was something else, more for the peice of mind of those closest to him than anything else.

And his poor little girl.

I was definitely upset to read such distressing news today.
