Daydream (my 20 minute lifetime)

I live about one mile from campus and since I do not have a parking pass (and have accumulated multiple tickets) I am fortunate enough to experience a 20 minute lifetime twice a day to and from campus. My walk takes me across College, through family housing, and up to my first class in Reid 101. During this short lifetime I throw my headphones on and trek throughout the expanses of my mind. Ever since I was in grade school I've always enjoyed walking to class alone, so that no one can disturb my daydreams. When I was young I can remember imagining normal little boy things, my action figures would go to battle in order to overtake different corners of my room. From what I can recall imagining them fighting on my way to and from school always seemed more colossal and glorified then what I could actually simulate with my toys in front of me. By the time I turned 13 however, I began to imagine what my life would be like and my twenty minute lifetimes went down a road they have yet to stray from. Every day on my walk to school, and every day since I was 13 my twenty minute lifetimedaydream has been about skiing. What I will do when I finally move out west, and once I got here, what I will do when I finally move wester. All day, every day, my short lifetimes revolve around snow,I get so entranced and excited to be skiing again when I'm walking to school that I forget to watch out for traffic. Nothing can break my concentration, sometimes girls, but even that is fleeting. I'm always surprised at just how long I can imagine the same run over and over again in my head, and then nod off while listening to a Professor lecture about Harold Bloom. Shocking!
