"I can feel my brain beginning to atrophy already." -Calvin and Hobbes
Seriously, it's embarrassing.
Today in the middle of French, I realized I left the homework for Schenkerian Analysis (my next class) at the apartment. So during the 10 minutes between classes, I ran home to get it. Made it back on time, sat down, finished the homework in class, and concentrated every neuron in my brain to not doze off. We also listened to Fritz Wunderlich singing Schumann lieder, so I floated off into Jenniferland for a while. Then class ended, I left school, came home, and realized I forgot to turn in the homework.
A few days ago, I brought Chip (my violin) to French, because I had excerpt class later in the day. During passing, I went downstairs to print something, and I accidentally left Chip in the classroom. I didn't even realize something was missing until I came back upstairs and someone informed me that one of our classmates had my violin and was trying to find me. But I had to go to class first. Went in, sat down, and was in the middle of concentrating every neuron in my brain to not doze off, when that classmate walked in the room, handed me my violin case (of course I was sitting in the most inaccessible location, middle of the back row), and walked back out. The teacher sort of stared at me, went "...okay" and kept teaching.
A week or so ago, I was sitting in my apartment, eating lunch and staring out the window, not even doing anything. At 2pm, I realized I had completely forgotten to go to my 1pm class.
A few days before that, I was sharing a taxi with a girl, and the fare was $12. She had a twenty, and I had a bunch of ones. It took us so long to figure out how to split the fare that the taxi driver went outside for a smoke while we deliberated.
WHAT IS GOING ON???
