The sky is so blue that it’s entirely intimidating — there is not another different color, shade, or hue to be seen past the orange bricks that make up circular rim of the building. I had intended to lie in bed while everyone else went through their morning routine, but lying there staring out into the endless blue with nary a cloud to be seen was entirely too unnerving for me. I quickly retreated to the computer, which is safely ensconced on the other side of the room — totally out of view of the window. I’m not sure why i find it quite so imposing… something about the clarity of it, i suppose.

The clarity scares me.
