Surreal

Evangeline

    It's a pretty ordinary day like any other, I woke up at 6AM, made a blueberry bagel with strawberry cream cheese as well as a mug of hot lemon water for breakfast, after I was done eating I got showered and ready for the school day. After I got out of the shower I brushed my wet hair so it could air dry as I finish with the rest of my morning routine, with all the tangles finally out of my hair I went to my closet to pick an outfit for the day, I chose a burnt orange loose fitting crewneck sweater with a pair of dark blue jeans and a white pair of sneakers. For makeup I don't really do much, I just filled in my eyebrows, some tinted bb cream, and some chapstick. I checked the time on my alarm clock, it read 7:15AM. I walked out into my main living area to pack up my books and laptop for class and I printed out my paper for my public speaking class. Once I was finished I checked the clock again and it was now 7:45AM, my first class starts at 8:30AM, I like to head out early because of traffic and to get a good parking spot. I put on my brown jean jacket with my keys and wallet, grabbed a dark red hair scrunchie and my book bag, now off to school.

    The drive was a bit cloudy, no rain just cloudy. I enjoyed mornings like this, the trees always looked so pretty with the clouds floating through and around them, it's just something about the trees is just so captivating and beautiful, I feel like I'm being pulled to wander into the trees. I pulled into the school parking lot and parked right by the front doors and walked into my first class with 15 minutes to spare. My first class went by fairly quick, we didn't do much, it was a work day to finish our papers and turn them in at the end of class, but I already finished mine so I was able to relax for the remaining hour. It was now 9:30AM and my second class doesn't start until 10AM, so I have a good 30 minuets to walk over to the next building. The air was so nice and cool, not too hot and not too cold, just perfect. There is a small patch of forest near my next building, it always made me happy walking past, seeing the small flowers and critters move about, and the tall figure staring at me, it looked so ni..... wait a minute, tall figure? I snapped my head around to get a better look but I didn't see anything, hmm maybe it was just my imagination. I shook my head and walked into the building and into the elevator for the third floor for my second class of the day - Orientation to Funeral Services 10AM-11AM, after this class I have my third class of the day with one of my best friends Alexandra at 11:15AM, we have - Embalming Theory I. 

    I know what you're thinking 'what kind of major involves these classes?', well I'm a Mortuary Science major. I don't really know how to explain it but I'm fascinated with death and creepy things, when people look at me they expect me to be a teaching major or something, but nope! Most people are taken back a bit by my choice in major, thinking its disturbing and dark but there's actually something beautiful about it too, there's so much more into it than just death. I aways take the seat by the window, I love to look at the view from the third floor. I begin to daydream and think about what happened outside, did I really imagine it? It felt sort of real, my eyes scan the trees and there it is again.... I feel like I'm in a daze, and frozen, a light ringing in my ear, there's only white, it looks like a man but there's only a blank white face, i feel a chill run down my spine and blink. As i open my eyes, its gone. I look around and scan the trees again, nothing, jeez what's going on with me? The ringing dies in my ear and I hear a muffled voice over and over, it begins to get louder, suddenly I'm taken out of my thoughts by my professor calling my name, 

"Evangeline Moore! Are you present or not?!"

I stood up, "Yes! Yes professor I'm here! I'm sorry for not answering the first time, but you can call me Eva."

"Hmph.. very well then, take your seat. Now class please turn to chapter 7 in your books...."

well looks like I'll have to think about it later, back to the books for now.
