Rush across campus.

How fast can I go and still not look like I'm running?

Why is everyone else going so slow?

1, 2, 3. 1, 2. 1, 2, 3. 1, 2.

Steps per block of cement.

Only 4 more buildings to go.

Why is everything counting? Stop counting.

1, 2, 3. 1, 2. 1, 2, 3. 1, 2.

Maybe I should go back.

It is chilly.

I bet there won't be anything worthwhile there today anyway.

Finally, at the door to the building.

So many people standing around smoking.

Hold breath, get inside.

Keep silently holding my breath.

I wonder how long I can keep doing this.

Exhale...

Don't inhale...

Weave through so many people.

Double-check my bag, make sure I have what I need. What class is this again?

Doesn't matter, I brought all 5 books, a giant notebook, and my laptop.

Just have to get upstairs.

Take the stairs or the elevator? It seems like every elevator here has something wrong with it.
