Life's too short...

[newbie]

On Thursday a guy in my school took his own life.

It just feels so eerie and sad...I mean, I sat next to this guy in one of my classes two years ago. I never got to know him well though...he was very quiet. Nevertheless, he seemed nice.

His death just sent shock waves throughout my school. He touched so many people's lives...and that was so evident today walking through the halls of my school. I know his sister, and I just cannot imagine what she is going through, and what his friends are going through.

I guess I just wanted to say, as totally corny as this may sound, that take advantage of life and do what you want to do and tell people whom you love that you love them before it's too late...

I think that this event is really starting to teach me a life lesson...
