Campus chronicles

Clocks by Coldplay. The persistent piano melody makes everything feel *chefs kiss*. Such a masterpiece. Well anyway, I just needed some background music to exhilarate my ear drums whilst I write this. Why does walking through my university campus feel so torturous? like it p a i n s me at the thought of walking through those narrow corridors having to collide shoulders with souls so uninviting. I know many of you feel the same way. Solo.

I want the full experience of this place but every time I’m here I tend to want to just leave. Maybe this is just my lone experience, maybe not. It’d be nice knowing that others shared similar thoughts (as selfish as it may sound) of this ordeal..

Have you ever felt so isolated? I dunno, university environments are tricky. On the one hand, you know you’re there to get things done, so ultimately there is a purpose even if there’s no enjoyment in the process, but we are social beings after all and so young.. these years ought to be vital.

Imagine twenty years from now, when you’re like fifty or something.. all the memories from your twenties decide to come by for tea and join you in your recollection of them. So vividly, uni days, as dull are they were, take first place in memory hell. 

Buuuuuut, perhaps there’s hope. Maybe graduating will erase all of the cons of being here, and I might even be thankful for what I’ve encountered being here. Imagine I’d been a social butterfly, distractions upon distractions. I’m just making myself feel better aren’t I.
