There is one fear that everyone holds, even as they choose to deny the fact. We fear what happens after, and what will become of us. We fear for those around us, the impact it will give. We fear that if we are not on this earth, physically - then there will be no earth. Yet, that is very true - but Death is not just another hard part at living your life....it puts things into perspective.
Your life is to precious to be absolutely carefree....the graduates of 06' know this much.

It was a sunny July day, the 1st to be exact. And the year was over, and summer break was upon us. The seniors where free from studies until they started College. They're parents proud that they had graduated, unlike them - they had failed to do so, having to pick they're lives back up with much struggle. Many tears of joy were shed on that day. It was a beautiful sight.
Not to mention my family had actually showed up. Man, I hadn't seen them in so long. Mum was so proud of me, she hugged and kissed my cheeks. My dad - he was..well...glad that I had done something useful. But me and him didn't exactly get on. It was just something that's always been there, I guess. Anyhow.
That night, all of the Graduates where shipped off up north to this huge and beautiful resort. We partied till the night became day, and then over again. Man. Honestly - I don't that I've ever drank so much. It was great, actually. And all the stuff that went on.
Loads kids loss their v-cards that night.
Anyhow. Some of the guys and they're girls got really strung up. They where on speed, or at least I think. And drunker than hell. IT was crazy and scary. They where jumping off the amps and swinging on the rafters. It was getting way out of control.
I mean, kids started striping and stuff.
So they staff came in and busted the riot up. Telling us that things have gotten out of hand and to return to our rooms. IT was like our mothers telling us to go to bed or something. It pissed so many people off - it was great. Some of the jocks started swearing at them. Some others snuck out the back door with the drinks.
We where exactly allowed to have alcohol in the resort.
But no one had mentioned off the grounds.
I personally, didn't want to go back to my room. I'm sure that my mate's guy would be there. Which meant, that they would be doing the dirty deeds. Instead, I ran to the parking lot, holding the black hoodie close to my body. It was raining pretty bad.
But the time I got to my mustang I was soaked. OH well. I won't melt. I laughed, turning my radio full blast and taking off into the night. Where was I going? WHO THE HELL KNEW. I was having fun.
I sang out-loud, into the night. Then, the rain started to pour faster - I didn't pay much attention. I saw some students on the side of the road - so I picked them up. Their car broke down. Along with them came the booze.
I grabbed one. Taking a swig.
Smirnoff Ice, Watermelon.
2, 3, 4...
The roads where getting alittle blurry, and the lines moved on me. But I kept going on. Flooring the gas. I could feel my baby lifting off the ground, sliding everywhere. I feared that it would catch the wrong wind and flip. But I couldn't get my foot to release and tap the brake. No, way. This was to fun.
The road curved, into a dark tunnel. For good times sake, I flipped my lights off and slammed on the brakes. Everyone screamed then bursted out into hysterics. I, thinking, that now we where safe - and at least. Not moving anymore.
5...
The next thing I saw where really bright lights and a really loud annoying sound...
then the sound of steel bending and twisting, a scream from a girl - which cut to short, glass shattering. A dull and sharp pain grinded in my stomach...it was really uncomfortable, but I couldn't move. I couldn't see....and I tasted blood.
Then everything went black..for a few minutes.
Then, I saw her. I saw Amy, she was hovering over me with a smile.
She held out her hand.
I touched it, and then we where walking up and away from darkness. I looked back and saw myself. My body. I gasped, yearning to go back. I pulled at my arm, her hand. I yanked this way and that. But she wouldn't let go! She grinned firmly then everything went black again.
Life is to precious to waste...because you never know when it will be taken away.
