I was late to the first day of class and didn’t get a choice over where to sit. As I settled down, I overheard people talking about the terms of their rent. Someone mentioned a “blood loan”.

Classes had just ended and I started walking towards the nearby 7-Eleven for a snack. When I got to the intersection, I realized that the convenience store was no longer where it usually was. I turned around and walked back to campus. On the way back I overheard some people in a debate about healthcare and taxes. I looked down and realized that I was wearing flip flops. I wondered if I still had time to catch the school bus home.
