yesterday while driving home from honor band tutoring, my Dad, brother and I where driving up Camp Plenty. We stoped at the stop sign where my dad pointed out a girl's sweatshirt with Ichigo on it. I couldn't see it. I was watching a man on his motorcycle as he jumped it up onto the curb and swerved back down onto the street using the driveway. My dad really wanted to show me the shirt so he turned my head so that I could see it. I saw it and we continued driving up the street. Twenty feet ahead of us the motorcyclist was on the ground dead with his motorcycle upside down in someone's yard. My dad slowed down and called the ON-STAR Emergency Hot Line The driver was just getting out to see if he was okay. My Dad wouldn't leave the car because there were already many people helping. There are now candles where he was laying. The sad part was that he WAS wearing a helmet and that he had his whole life ahead of him. He was 20 years old. I made me think how easily life can slip away... that even if you think that your whole life is ahead of you that you can never know for sure. I also thought that my guardian angel was with me and used my anime obsession to an advantage. I'm so glad that they saved me from a potentialy tramatizing event and I thank them for that...
