My hair is disheveled, and skin oily from today’s day off from normal hygenic practice. My right eyebrow has a split which occurred from an eye operation to correct a crosseye problem I had when I was four, which was eventually corrected when I wore corrective glasses to supplement the operation.My skin feels pasty, likely a reaction to my recent voluntary lack of caffeine, in order to reestablish a healthy relationship with the chemical, and bring balance to my recently acquired collegiate lifestyle.<\/p>\n
The other eyebrow has a slight split that occurred from a fall when I was in third grade, a brush with the ice when two schoolyard bullies introduced me to it at great acceleration.<\/p>\n
My eyes are wide awake from a recently induced single-tall non-fat latte, a temporary reprieve for a body that has struggled for the last few days. The eyes are brilliant hazel, surrounded by a pool of slight bloodshot, from an adequate quantity but insufficient quality of slumber, the physical answer to full days and a still unwillingness on my part to sacrifice a social lifestyle for an educational one.<\/p>\n
Two days of new-growth forest takes shape on my face, giving definition to a dimple on my chin and arousing suspicion of the scar below it, the result of a catwalk injury obtained while falling off a ladder onto the backstage during a high-school production of “You Can’t Take It With You”, where I played Third FBI Man. The accident was part curiosity and part boredom, due to the only line I had in the production, “This is him!”<\/p>\n
My hair tries in vain to cover an expanding forehead. It has a similar sheen to my skin, and awaits a good bout of Ph balancing.<\/p>\n
My lips are dry and cracked, and cry out for moisture, as does the lump of gray in my cranium after an evening’s worth of dehydration.<\/p>\n
At least the sun is out today.<\/p>\n
