        Has this really become my life now? Why did this have to happen to me? This girl, Cameron,  just came out of no where and initiated herself in my life. This is starting to turn into a freaking disney movie. The only thing I should expect now is that a genie will pop up and tell me ‘Be careful of what you wish for’. I always thought that phrase was just a figure of speech. I know that I wanted something unpredictable to happen to me but, I didn't ask for a random girl who can do breathtaking stunts, has good fighting skills, an extreme love for unicorns and wears colorful clothes. On top of that she is in my class in which I was not aware of until now. How did I not notice her? I do admit that I do not pay attention to detail as much as I should or at least to the things that don’t interest me. However, with the way she acts how could I or anyone not notice her? Speaking of school, according to Cameron I missed 3 days. 3 days in high school wouldn't be that bad but, missing that many days in college is like missing an entire semester of work. Lucky for me though, I have Tom as a friend who could practically teach the class himself. I’ll have to get him to help me with all of my missed work. I might need Connor’s help too. He tends to record each class even though he has never missed a day of school in his life. Connor is the type of guy, who would generally take more responsibility when it comes to school. He doesn’t go to parties as much as Tom does. He dedicates himself to his schoolwork and does not really care about socializing with others. Him and Tom usually clash when it comes to school. Connor studies his ass off everyday but, always comes second to Tom who doesn’t study at all. Connor sees Tom as competition when it comes to school, however Tom sees Connor as a person in need, socially and tries to get him to open up more and become more relaxed when it comes to school and everyday life. Now that I think about it, maybe I should introduce Cameron to Tom. Based on Cameron’s randomness and Tom’s positive and laid back attitude they’d get along great. However, they say that opposites attract so maybe, Connor would be a better match. If Tom can’t through to Connor then maybe Cameron would. Wait a sec, here I am trying to set up a girl that I hardly even know myself, with my best friends. Maybe I should try getting to know her first before playing matchmaker with  her and my friends. Did I just agree to get to know a girl that I didn't want to know in the first place. Why am I contradicting myself?

        Well now I feel like its a good time as any to try and relax a bit. I sit under the tree thinking about what I should do next in my life. I always get like this when I’m alone in this place. A little after that I start to think about Cameron. How is she capable to do all of that for a girl her size. Then again, I was always told to never judge a book by its cover, so I guess anything is possible. I just can’t believe that she actually knocked me out for 4 days straight. Just thinking about it makes my head feel like a hammer is being smashed against it. I try not to think about it for now. I get up from my spot and begin walking down the hill. Once I reach the park area I look around to see a few people playing with their dogs and pushing their kids on the swing. Seeing the children being pushed on the swing only reminds me of last Saturday when I met Cameron. I walk to my car and pull out the key. I unlock the door and jump inside. Uh, I’m hungry. I usually cook for myself but, tonight I settle for drive thru service. This is the worst thing you can do to your body but, dammit, I’m hungry. Once I reach my apartment I gather up my trash from my food and turn my car off. I throw my trash away into a neighbor’s overflowing trashcan. ‘Hey, its all going out eventually anyway’ I think to myself in order to feel less guilty. I walk inside my apartment and crash down on the couch. Tomorrow I have class and I need to be prepared for it. It probably wouldn’t be wise to pass out on the couch since every time I do sleep on the couch I always wake up past 1 pm. Its just that comfortable. I force myself off of the couch and head towards my bedroom. Crap, I forgot to make my bed the last time I was here. I kind of get OCD about this type of thing. I always have to make my bed before I head out. I then go towards the bathroom, remembering that I haven't showered for a couple days. After my long awaited shower I throw on some boxers and some sweatpants and dive into bed. As to be expected, I can not sleep. The only thing that keeps reeling in my mind is that how was Cameron was able to knock me out for that many days. On top of all that, how did I even make it home? Did Cameron put me in my car while I was knocked out? How did she know where my car was or what car I drive? How long was I there before Luke found me? This all makes no sense to me. And for that I am now cursed with curiosity and forced to be awake for the rest of the night.
