When I was 7, I was biking around my block and didn't notice a neighbor's car pulling out of the garage. Good thing the driver saw me and immediately braked when I was behind him. His wife went berserk and screamed at me, but I can't blame her for doing that.

Two years ago, the flu spreaded everywhere, especially in my school. Since I never got the flu shot, I ended up being sick for two weeks. I had a 106 fever and couldn't stop coughing. I thought I was going to die because none of the medications were helping at all. Fortunately a few days later, a really nice doctor finally found me something that worked.

Last year, I nearly got hit by a train, which would've been an instant death. I was leaning on a pole and reading a text book while waiting for the train to come with two immature boys playfully fighting each other next to me. Just when I was about to put the book away, one of the boys accidently pushed into me and I nearly fell over the ledge if I hadn't grabbed on to the pole to pull me back. My book fell on to the tracks and five seconds later, the train ran over it.
I was paralyzed with fear and shock. There were no witnesses, nothing at all. The two boys ran out of the station because they probably thought I was going to kill them. After the train left, I also left the station and went to a nearby park. I sat there for hours thinking about the event. After that day, I started appreciating my life a lot more.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
