numbers
my life consists of numbers
four more papers to write
three more finals to take
before I can get eight hours of sleep
College is torture to the intellectual
how much can we cram in at once?
When you’re reading seven different books at the same time
What can you learn?
you learn to count
counting the number of books left to read, papers left to write, and tests lets to take
counting down the days
with an excited prospect of
actually choosing my own books to read and learn from
