Trees
Today, upon finishing my first class of the morning, I was taking my normal route from the Ricks Building to the Taylor Building for my religion class. This is a walk I take every Tuesday and Thursday, so obviously it is something I am quite accustomed to. I'm walking along, listening to my music, and I even take the time to Snapchat a good friend of mine.
So I reach about the halfway point (for those of you who have attended BYU-Idaho, I was walking by the Benson) where there was a wall of trees to my right and a parking lot to my left. Over the beat of "Bedroom Hymns" by Florence and the Machine, I heard what I thought was some sort of laugh. This stuck me as strange, provided that there is no such laugh in this music that I was listening to, but it was getting louder.
I turned to see what was going on just as a person in a camouflage suit (you know, like the ones that the military uses) looming out of the trees at me.
Now, when someone tries to scare me, I usually display one of two reactions. One of which is to not even flinch. The other is to hit something.
And I wouldn't be writing this entry if I had chosen the first of those two.
No, I did not hit the guy, though I did come dangerously close.
Moral of the story: Don't try to scare me, there's no telling what I'm going to do.
