What Could Have Been... :: essays research papers

  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  As I started down the long, narrow, hallway I felt my heart beating faster and my stomach rising into my throat. With much difficulty I kept my head up and my eyes forward, trying desperately to not view inside any of the rooms to the left or right. The hospital smell was stronger then ever and every little noise seemed as loud as thunder...almost like I had two water glasses up to my ears that just echoed every sound. Suddenly I’m stopped dead in my tracks by an orderly who senses that I’m lost or at least having trouble finding whatever it is that I was looking for. She was very sweet, and we probably conversed for a good 3 minutes, but no matter how hard I try I cannot remember one word that we exchanged. It’s almost like I had a conversation with her in my sleep and the second I walked past her it was like a dream, which I was barely able to remember. Well I guess I should explain where I am and why I’m here before I continue with m y story...we’ll go back to 3 hours ago, that should catch you up to speed.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã¢â‚¬Å"Shit Sean your such a dumb ass, how could you forget the tap? How the hell are we supposed to get into a keg without a fucking tap? So now what do you suppose we do...get a nail gun and poke holes through it and get the whole 30 people at our party straws? I can’t rely on you to do anything right!†   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã¢â‚¬Å"Jesus Kim, I’m sorry, I just forgot, kill me why don’t you...I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry, what else can I say? Instead of sitting here and lecturing me about it why don’t you just get off your ass and come with me to find one?†   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã¢â‚¬Å"No Sean, your on your own here, that was your only job, and I think you can handle it yourself, I have a ton of stuff to get ready here at the house.†   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã¢â‚¬Å"Fine!†   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã¢â‚¬Å"Fine!†   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  As the door slammed I ran into the kitchen to start getting things ready for our little get together that my brother and I had been planning since our parents told us about their little trip to NYC for the weekend. The worst part about all of this is that I could have really cared less about the party, I have been in college for 2 years now, and sitting around and getting drunk really wasn’t unexplored territory.
