I'm sober and it is snowing.
Today I was looking down at my feet. The torn sandals. The supposed cartoonish big toe, and three brightly coloured toe nails. I thought to myself, Who in the hell are controlling these hideous creatures? and where are they taking me?. Obviously to class, and yet, to a unknown destination in my mind. Nothing felt real today. I was the spectator today. Looking into the world with wide opened eyes, half covered by a blonde disguise. A confused bystander. The song The World Exploded into Love serenaded itself in my head all day long: And everytime I look around me, I have to smile. When walking home, I just wanted to keep walking, let the wind push me forward. Just prevent the hideous creatures from going left. Keep walking. Keep walking. Keep walking. Like the day Em and myself kept walking and found ourselves in the next town. But no, I thought to myself, I cannot go trailing off to some random place, because at 6:30pm I must arrive at Jane's house to devour those white and sleek keys.
I have come to a conclusion today: Teachers can read your mind.
