You’re
back! I’ve been patiently waiting here for over a week for you to return just
so I can tell you my story about how I got started in architecture, don’t mind
the long scraggly beard and the loud growling of my stomach, it will pass soon.
I hope you are comfortable and brought your popcorn because this is going to be
a good story. Oh, you didn’t bring any? Well, we can just go on without it I
guess. I was hoping you might bring some so I can eat since I haven’t eaten in
a week, I didn’t want to leave in case you came back. I guess I could have
ordered a pizza or something…oh well back to the story. Are you ready? Okay let
us begin.
It
all started back in the year 2008, I know it’s a long time ago but bear with
me. I was beginning my senior of high school and things were going quite well
for me. I had easy classes [for the most part], I had a small group of friends
that I would hang out with on most days after class, and I even had a job
working for a pizza place near my house. Yep, things were quite good for this
young man during my late teen years. All of that changed one day though when I
arrived at school in the morning.
I
began to walk through the halls one early winter morning and there was an
ominous feeling in the air that I couldn’t quite figure out. As I began to walk
the halls more I started to hear a few strange noises coming from the other
side of the building. I headed that way to investigate the noises but was
interrupted by a young girl who was running around the corner and had bumped
into me.
I asked her what was going on and why she was
in such a hurry but she didn’t say anything. I could feel a cold wet sensation
on my arms though as she was huddled up next to me with her head on my chest. I
looked down and noticed a strange purple goo was all over her hands and body
that I must have not seen as she ran into me just moments ago. I jumped away
from her as the purple goo began to trickle onto my arms and torso, “What the
hell is this?!” I screamed but once again she didn’t say anything and just
looked at me with a blank stare.
I
decided that I wasn’t going to get any information from this young girl so I
continued my journey down the hall to get to the bottom of these noises that
continued to get louder and louder. I looked behind to see if the girl was
still huddled in the hallway but she was gone, all that was left was a small
puddle of the purple goo that she was covered in when I encountered her.
The
walk down the hallway was becoming more and more eerie as I continued my
investigation as to what was going on. The halls started to show more presence
of this strange purple gunk, it was all over the walls and had begun to spill
into the classrooms also. It was almost as if there had been some kind of
explosion in the hall and the gunk was the result of it. It was at that moment
that I turned the corner and realized that something was very, very wrong at my
high school that day. Let’s just say that what I saw when I turned the corner
almost made me regurgitate what I had eaten for breakfast that day. The sight
my eyes had landed on was a man’s body that was…wait, wait, WAIT! This has
absolutely nothing to do with how I got started in architecture! This is just
what occurred on one day of my senior year of high school, it was a very
interesting and terrifying day though I must say.
Let
me guess, you want me to continue the story of that one day right? What about
the start of my architecture career? Isn’t that why you came back to me after
all this time? Oh, you just wanted to hear a story and you felt bad for leaving
me last week? Alright, I see how it is. I guess I can continue my story then if
it makes you happy.
Now,
where were we? Ah yes, the sight my eyes had landed on was a man’s body that
was…
