Home Alone
I think I'm so independent. The idea of living simply and on my own appeals to me. I think I could handle all that. But now I realize one thing that didn't occur to me.
I'm afraid of being home alone at night.
It makes me go all paranoid and I start running around the house, turning lights on everywhere. My roommate's gone to Ann Arbor for Open Mic Night at The Ark. Pato's taken all of his stuff and gone home to Saline. Evil Suitemate has gone back to her little corner of Hades and Good Suitemate is reuniting with her boyfriend in Chicago. Bob and Gator are moving into their new apartment in Chicago. All of the underclassmen have been sent home. This isn't like any other night when my roommate isn't here. If Sheila has gone somewhere, I am the only person in French House. I'm all alone and paranoid. I got scared of a shadow when I was coming out of the bathroom and thought it was a person. I jumped. Now I feel like I should sit on the couch and watch TV because having my back to the window is creeping me out. This is horrible. It's the idea that if you screamed, no one could hear.
I do the same when I'm at home alone and I did the same during the week I was home alone in Grenoble. I don't like to be alone at night. I'm going to have to get a roommate or a cat or something when I'm in France.
