...not really, but if it were, how would you spend it? I used to think about this question a lot when I was little and had the entire day planned out, but now that I'm older I look back at it and realize how much my priorities have changed. See, when I was 7 the most important things to me were playing with my dog and catching Gula Gula Island on TV when I got home from school, but now things are different and its nice to know that more important things now rank number one in my life. Number one thing for me is spending time with the people I care most about--it would be impossible for me to spend the last day of my life by myself. There are so many people that I am close with and I know I could count on to keep me smiling until I take my very last breath. On my last day I would make sure do the simple things in life that I love to do too like cooking, hanging out with friends, going for a walk...it would make my final day seem less final. I would want that day to be similar every other in my life--thats what would make this one special---because it would allow me to relive all the good times that I have had and remind me just how great of a life I lived. I don't think I would actually say goodbye to anyone because seems too permanent, and I don't know if I could face that reality head on. The thought of never seeing my friends and family again terrifies me, so I think the actual act of saying goodbye would be impossible. This is just a rough sketch of how I would spend my last day, but, who knows, I might look back on this 13 years from now and see that once again my priorities have changed.
