Life. How fragile it is. How uncertain it is.
You know when they ask us to live everyday to the fullest, for you don't know what will happen tomorrow, is so true. Not to say I didn't believe in it, but I used to think I'll wake up the next morning and it's never too late. Perhaps I've been taking the certainty of waking up the next morning for granted.
Someone who was a stranger to me (though we went to the same school before) passed away. She wasn't anybody in my life at all, but the reason she passed away totally stunned me. Because there isn't any reason at all. According to her friends, she had no medical conditions whatsoever, but when she fainted after completing her 2.4, she never opened her eyes anymore.
It happened just so suddenly. I'm sure her friends never thought they'll never see her again. I'm sure her parents thought they'll still see her for the weekends. I'm sure she'll never thought the last time she talked to her parents was wishing them goodnight the night before.
Perhaps she had dreams yet to be realized. Perhaps she was a talent waiting to be discovered. Perhaps she left something undone. She never knew that she won't be able to do any of these anymore.
Although I never knew her personally, I'm feeling a little down. Yup, I won't know what's gonna happen tomorrow. So I shall make sure I live with no regrets today.

There's a song called 2月30号见by Fahrenheit. And 2月30号this year happen to fall on Friday. Twist your brain a little, and you'll know what I mean, for those who know what's happening on that day.
Suddenly, the lyrics seem so true, tho the story is different from mine.
