The Real Situation

Okay, so maybe my earlier post was a little dramatic. But honestly, it could happen.

But maybe a more likely story goes a little something like this:

Even though you are a freshman, you have gotten to know how to weave yourself through the school pretty well. You know you can pass through the student center to escape the cold for a minute. Or that the Sac is connected to the library. Also, if you live in the dorms, the library is a perfect tunnel to escape the couple blocks of this freezing cold winter... (well lets time travel to this time last year).

You have taken the long track from Mcgaw, and you no longer have feeling in your toes, nose or ears. And, wait, did you just get your tongue stuck to a pole? Yeah, it is that cold out.

Finally, the library is in view. Ahh, the library. It is a break from the freezing cold. And you know how much that break means. It is a wonderful experience that can not be given enough credit through words. It is the feeling of hope, that you soon will be able to step into a world filled with warmth. It is an escape outside of the real, harsh world filled with cold and crowded side walks. Filled with a harsh wind that makes you gasp because you dare not breathe in the air in fear that it will freeze your only pair of lungs. But all of that does not matter, because you are about to enter the place of goodness, the place where everything is right in the world, the library.

You take off your glove, risking the chance of freezing off your hand, but you are willing to take that risk because going through the library will make it all worth while. But as you try to open the massive door, it is as if all of your strength has been stripped from you. It does not budge. Why? Because the library is closed. No, it is not open at all times. As you start to heat up anyways because the anger is rising inside of you, you try to take your hand away to put back on your glove. But it is too late, your fingers are frozen to the library door. Stuck there until the next morning when the library opens again, and your fingers defrost.
