CHAPTER ONE
My morning routine was simple- an early morning run around campus followed by a full pot of coffee and a long, hot shower. Then I went to my closet and picked out the most comfortable outfit I could find. Every morning, I glanced at the trunk at the bottom of my closet and my chest would tighten. But once the door was shut again, so was my past.
For breakfast, I fixed myself an egg white omelet and occasionally allowed myself a side of delicious bacon. If the weather was nice, I enjoyed a quiet breakfast on my porch, listening to birds chirp as the sun rose in the sky. That was pretty much the best part of my day.
During the week, I attended classes at Jackson College. I was an undeclared freshman, certain only that I wasn’t ready to pick a major and uncertain of just about everything else. It seemed crazy to me that some people knew exactly who they wanted to be at just eighteen. I barely knew what I wanted to have for lunch on any given day.
That’s not to say I didn’t like school. Quite the contrary. I enjoyed learning for the sake of learning, and I was hopeful that one day I might even make a friend or two. College was easier for me than high school. In high school, you spent your whole day trying to fit in and not stand out in any way. In college, strange was cool. And I had plenty of strange going on.
I set off in the morning feeling motivated that today would be different. I would smile, even when I didn’t want to and I wouldn’t look away when I passed strangers on the street. On the way to class, I stopped at a corner coffee shop for a double espresso. My caffeine intake was excessive, but also necessary. It was the only thing that kept me going while running on a couple of hours of sleep.
In fact, I couldn’t remember the last time I slept through an entire night without waking in a cold sweat from the nightmares I doubted I would ever be able to shake. The good news was that after two years, I was starting to get used to living in a constant state of sleep deprivation.
