seminar

that might have been my final university class. five years of pretending to understand what everybody’s talking about and the really big words they like to use. a few of us bought drinks on campus after. we got on well and wondered why we hadn’t thought to become friends earlier. very funny.

I’ve stayed in school since 2003. it’s very late so my math won’t be very accurate. about 19 years I think. this makes me feel very old, and though the thought of life beyond the familiar anxieties of deadlines and classrooms scares me, I know I’ll have to face it. school has been good to me, a life distraction in which I’ve been able to hide from what scares and upsets me. I think I’m going to miss it. <<
