A Real Introduction of The Red Huxley.
In my teens, I remember dazing off and eventually losing my attention to a daydream. Many times I pictured myself as a leader of some rebellion, always going to the offensive against some evil, Government-like people. When I was on the bus for school, I watched cars go by, and determine which I would want under my control if a rebellion would occur. Of course I would think its silly for me to think like this, but I would get lost into the daydream. When I got into high school, I started dressing a little different, I preferred giant black boots that came up way to high. My pants were either black or some sort of cameo that I would stuff into my boots. I remember finding military shirts, or jackets of my local stores, I'd save enough money to buy such things, but the issue was that people didn't like to see a girl who would dress like me, like a crazy war-ready hag.
In all honest, I don't want to see War in my life, its the matter that... Earth is a terrible place. I know why I had the daydreams, I know why I wanted to be like the soldiers I see on TV. 9/11 changed my life, my eyes are open, I can see the World for what it really is. I remember sitting in my elementary school, and suddenly my teacher comes in and pulls down the giant map in front of the chalk board. He point and said some unusual countries and groups of people. I don't think much of it, until I get of my bus from the school later that day. My family is home and my older siblings aren't acting any different, but my father is. My father is glued to the TV while I do my usual girl stuff, but them I started watching the TV with him. A memory that I can still picture today, the colors I can still see, the names of some people talking while I watched, all of it.
Anyone else ever feel this way?
