Doing essay assignments into the night always reminds me of days in Junior College. Modest Mouse plays.
The other day at school this girl said to me, "Vicki you are the phantom student. People see you like, twice a semester. Do you really exist?" I giggled. I think about how this girl who sits near me in the exam hall last semester said she has never seen me at school, except during the exams, where I would more or less amble into the hall half an hour late for every paper. Like how Joel found it excruciatingly amusing that Mr Smith our old lit tutor in JC said that I'm a "figment of [his] imagination" because he hardly ever saw me. I was this strange girl thing who was in all the attendance sheets, leaving everyone wondering, who? Then I suddenly appeared like, 3 or 4 weeks into school. My indifference to school amazes me too sometimes.
Back to Travis and Jeanette Winterson.
