"that kid from class."
(excerpts from a college notebook)
"He was different. Everyone could tell.
Though no one said anything about it.
He always did the readings and dressed a little out of style.
His glasses were large. Similar to aviators, but without the darkened glass. He had perfect posture, and made quick awkward movements when he took out his book or sat in his desk.
When he talked, no emotions were displayed, besides the set pleasant and content face, not quite a smile...
Then he cut this hair. It was a 70's look with wings.
Then he untucked his shirt.
His voice was most unexpected. He had such soft-unsure eyes, and such timid facial expressions that when his deep, calm, assured voice came from such trembling lips...one just had to double take. Did that come our of him?
It fit him. I believe. Because it added to the oddities that made him such a unique individual. One who though on the outside may have been a little strange, had zero doubts on what made him-him."
