Step, step, step, right, left, step, step, step…sit. The wind
ruffles the trees until their leaves gently fall to the bricks. Its sound does
not overshadow a child’s counting. “1, 2, 3, ahhh you found me!” Through the
windows’ reflections, I see her hiding behind an unusually large rock. It is
quite an interesting thing, this building. Two circles, five rectangles and two
semi-cylinders are all ready to mirror the lawn’s latest activities. As if on
cue, a bell tolls and people begin to gather in a semicircle. Sorority girls appear
suddenly laughing. A couple crosses through holding hands, while others decide
to take a seat. Through my nose alone, I can tell the quintessential college
students have arrived: Chipotle, Ginger, and Avalanche. My nose argumentatively
claims this is not a tobacco free campus. With each moment I spend wondering for
what everyone is congregated, the sun continues to set farther and farther west,
behind the Panhellenic house.
