"You're gonna love this world if it's the last thing I do"
What a week, what a week.
I finally decided, on Tuesday, that it was time to stop feeling like shit. Luckily I was able to follow through, with a little help from my friends... hehe
The week before was just generally crappy, and I was feeling pretty upset about a few things... and one night, on my way to class, I was about to cross the street, and the girl walking in front of me got hit by a van.
Seeing her lying unconscious in the street scared me shitless, but as I was calling an ambulance she "woke up" and was able to move off the road. Thankfully she seemed okay, but had a big bleeding gash on her head. Either way, the sound of van hitting person was just surreal. Because she was laying so still in the street, naturally I thought the worst.
I think I overreacted to the whole incident, but it got me thinking about the whole "life can be taken away so quickly" thing...
It just sucks that that can happen, and that if things don't turn out as well as they did for her, that's it. No chances to tell everyone that you love them, or to make things right with people you may not be on the best terms with.
So naturally I gave that a shot - trying to make things better - and was shot down, as usual, which is really sad when I think about it in this context...
Buuuut that's that way that cookie crumbles. No use dwelling on it if you've tried and just run into the same brick wall over and over.
I'm just glad this week turned out better, even though my German professor tried to eat my soul.
Some friends from class and I had a Pee-wee's Big Adventure night on THursday, which was fantastic. These people have so much to offer. A couple of them are doing their 2nd degree, and just... the things they've done in between. It's really incredible.
