Fine, I'll admit it: I don't like the real world. Everyone always teases me, chastises me, frowns at me - "What are you going to do with a
degree in
English?" And I quip back, "The same thing I did without it." They laugh and shake their heads, but they don't realize that I'm serious; I'm going to do the same thing I've always done: Ignore. Read, write, immerse myself into a world of my own creation; a fictitious world where pain ebbs away after a couple page turns and emotions can be re-shelved when you need a break. I'll put my English degree on that shelf, too.
