it’ll all slip away.

Dear diary,

this is it, this is my last day on earth. The last day of everybody on earth, I guess. I have some hours left, and I’m officially the only person to know that it’ll be over soon. Well, not the only one. The government knows. And my parents, because Dad works in the Nuclear Power Station Industry. They were told to turn it off, because there’s a small chance some people will survive. If they do, they definitely won’t survive a toxic planet.

Nearly nobody else knows. They want to prevent a mass panic. I mean who wouldn’t, everybody would do what they want if they knew that they’ll be dead in 19 hours. That’s when the asteroid hits our planet. Surviving will be hard. The few who survive the impact will probably starve because plants can’t grow anymore. It will be too cold for them, thanks to dust in the atmosphere, no ray of light can get through it.

I don’t know why, but the end of the world isn’t scarring me as much as it should. When I found out, I was shocked, of course, and after some tears I got angry and destroyed some of my belongings, but I realized that being sad or angry isn’t going to change anything. Me and my parents decided to not tell my sister. She would go crazy.

Instead, we decided to make this last day special. My sister and I, we are going riding with our horses one last time, Mum and Dad will take their bikes and come with us. After that, we go to the city and eat some ice cream. We watch a movie in the cinema, and when we’re done with that, we go eating in a restaurant. The night, we’ll spend together on the couch. We watch movies, talk and play funny games. When the asteroid hits earth, we’ll sleep. I think it will be peaceful. I‘ll be dying around the people I love the most, knowing they love me too.

But these aren’t all the things I plan to do. I already called my closest friends. I told every single one of them, that I love them, how much they mean to me and that they changed my life, more than anybody else ever could. At 8am, Mum will drive me to the house of the girl I’ve been in love with for the past 6 months. I don’t have anything to loose, because of that I’m going to tell her about my feelings. If she’s feeling the same way, I’ll leave this world happier than I’ve ever been, and if she doesn’t I know that I’ve been brave enough to try.

When I look back on my life, I’m happy. I had a good life, not long, but good. On my way, I‘ve met awesome people with golden hearts that brought the light into my life. Some of them have left me earlier than others, a few traveled by my side all the time. I don’t regret anything. Because of that I’m not scared of death, I think.

If somebody is going to find this, that’ll mean that some humans survived. I give you my best wishes, hold tight! If you survived the apocalypse, you can still hold on longer. And if you don’t, we’ll se us on the other side.
