Dead?

It’s been a wierd day!

I found out this morning that a guy from my school died yesterday. I knew who he was, but I didnt really know him. Its just wierd to think that someone my age, who I used to see in school every day, who was looking forward to graduation, and getting on with the rest of his life, is dead. Its wierd to think that right now, hes not thinking, not breathing, not sitting in a chair watching tv, not blinking, not doing any of this stuff, because hes dead. I mean, thats it for him. Right now, he isnt him anymore. Right now, who knows where he is. I mean, hell, I dont know. I mean, why take someone so young? He was only 17. I’m 17. What does that say for me? And all my friends, we’re all so young. Now it just makes me think that any one of us at any time can be ripped away from this world like him, maybe violently like him,crashing into a telephone pole and losing our lives right there. It’s strange to think.. thats all I can say
