Do you ever think of really improbable situations, but in your head, they seem like those situations could happen any minute? Okay, so you may find this kind of psychotic, but the majority of times I cross the street, I picture a car running into me. Yeah, freaky right? Well, to add to my weirdness, as I am here sitting in my cubicle on the tenth floor of Thompson library, I’m looking out the window imagining an airplane flying towards me, about to crash into me. Some people may think this imagination needs to be put into an asylum …but I consider myself to be an abstract thinker.
It’s not like I’m always thinking of death. Quite the opposite, actually. I like to think that I breathe life. In high school, I put it my spiritual mind that I wanted the student body to see that I was shining a certain light through my actions and personality. When I say this, I don’t mean that I was preaching to others, but I just wanted to show an optimism to influence others to do the same. You know, when someone genuinely smiles at you, you can’t help but feel good inside. It does for me at least. I love observing the beauty of life. Most the time, I don’t look at life’s beauty in social interaction, but rather in what I observe and analyze around me, especially when I’m alone. I try to make sure I set some time out of my day to be by myself and just think. It keeps me at peace.
I like to think of theoretical situations, but not usually ones that involve me getting hurt haha. I like to think of things like: what would it be like to be in another country, or go to a different school or something.
