Wore this to school sometime last week. I love including my axe T-shirt in a supergirlyoldschool outfit like this. It's like one of those things that are polar opposites? I can't think of the word right now...anyway... I love this cardigan as well because it is supercomfy and goes with everything. I adore skirts like this because they show off one's waist magnificently and I feel so girly when I wear them. Also the color of this particular one makes me drool. MN is getting super chilly and the first snowfall happened two days ago! It was magical. And Christmas music is playing on the radio!! Love it. But on a more serious note, a couple of my friends and I had a near-death experience earlier today. I won't go into details, but it just put things into perspective. My life didn't flash before my eyes or anything, but it did make me think. Chris Allen's song Live Like We're Dying perfectly summs up my feelings now. Life can be over for someone in the blink of an eye, and it is important to remember that it can happen to you. When people are young, I think that sometimes they feel invincible? With their new freedoms and opinions they think that nothing can touch them and they get on some sort of a high. And they can forget to be grateful. This experience happened at the perfect time, now that I think about it, with Thanksgiving right around the corner. This year I am most thankful for being alive, the people I love, and the opportunities I now realize I have everyday and need to take advantage of. I'm not making sense. Sorry, I'm not good at getting my thoughts together. Fail at trying to be deep. Just, if you are reading this and have something even mildly important that you haven't told someone or any business you haven't taken care of/been pushing off...just do it now while you can. You never know what can happen. You are not invincible. Mario can be. Human beings are fragile and breakable. Make the most of life while you can. Seriously, just do it.
