Yes.  No bullshit either.  I have done a lot in my relatively short lifetime.

I live every day like my last and I get really depressed if I have to sit around and do nothing.

I'd be pissed. There's so much stuff that I'm looking forward to do after college. Hell, I haven't even left the northeast. I just wanna be able to spread my wings lol.

id be absolutely fine with it. some people see it as a problem, but nothing really affects me, at least negatively, so something that would just boil down to me not having to deal with problems would pretty much be a good thing.

Probably wouldn't be happy. I'm not scared of it or anything, if I die then I die, but I don't feel like I'm done yet. It's pretty weird to think about, though.

Like you would be able to have an opinion one way or another once you were dead...  I try to live in such a way that if I were facing death I would be laughing.  Society makes that kind of difficult sometimes, but life means alot more when you realize that you could die at any given point.

yes, but no. yes because this summer I had the time of my life. I spent 6 weeks in Europe traveling around and loved every minute of it. No just because there are a few things I want to do.

Everyone should say yes, if not get out and do something fulfilling before it's too late. Like said above I don't think it really matters, once you go your onto a new chapter whatever it may be and couldn't do jack about it.

I think this changes once you have a real experience with death and someone close to you. It forces you to really live with the attitude that you could be gone tomorrow and not to regret so much.

Besides after your gone the only ones left to think about it are people you know, and I'm not gonna judge someone's life whether living or dead.

Though I hope this afterlife BS we're all fed is true because I could really go for one more shot at hanging out with my bros.

You'll never get that one more. Instead thrash this run as your last, and kiss her like you never will again. This mindset will lead you to never regret anything. Besides, you never know when it's coming.

No.

I want to backflip my dirt bike to dirt and jump out of a plane without a parachute (like pastrana/palmer did).

No BS, those are two things I honestly want to do in life.

As I grab the glock, put it to your headpiece
One in the chamber, the safety is off release
Straight at your dome homes, I wanna see cabbage
Biggie Smalls the savage, doin your brain cells much damage
Teflon is the material for the imperial
mic ripper girl stripper the Henny sipper
I drop lyrics off and on like a lightswitch
Quick to grab the right bitch and make her drive
the Q-45, glocks and tecs are expected when I wreck shit
Respect is collected, so check it
I got techniques drippin out my buttcheeks
Sleep on my stomach so I don't fuck up my sheets, huh
My shit is deep, deeper than my grave G
I'm ready to die and nobody can save me
Fuck the world, fuck my moms and my girl
My life is played out like a jheri curl, I'm ready to die

not at all.  there are so many things i would like to do with my life that i wont even begin to type them in here.  this is all assuming that there is some sort of afterlife where we can sit and think about our mortal lifes, correct?  because if there is no afterlife, i would still be disappointed, but in a way, less so.  i would have liked to do more things, but there would be no way for me to feel bad about it.

My mom was friends with him in college before he dropped out and went to nashville. He held me as a baby so I think since he went skydiving, rocky mountain climbing and rode 2.7 seconds on a bull named foo man shoo I had lived enough at that point to just die right there and be happy.

ummm no, not at all, which is kinda bad. I am not where I want to be at with skiing at all. All I can do is some rails and a 1. I still have yet to nail the 360 and learn 270s on/off. And even then I still won't be completely satisfied. My sexual life is almost non existent. With my family and friends wise pretty much. I have a good time with both of them. And dying at a young age would suck because I would never get to experience living on my own and shit but hey that's how it goes. Other that no I would not be satisfied.
