Your haven.

It may also have something to due with me liking to be alone when there are other people around. :/

I agree with you. I use to love riding the school bus because I could look out the window and daydream. However, the only form of public transportation we have is a bus--and I don't know if other southerns have the same problem--but all the females on the bus have to talk to everyone, especially if there's a female bus driver. My mom and little sister are very social with them, so they don't realize that maybe I don't want to ride the bus to be bombarded by their conversations. Don't get me wrong, I like socializing, but when I ride in a vehicle the majority of the time I want to daydream.

I used to use my room to get away from it all. However, you can't do that in a dormitory since you have to live with someone else (and sometimes they don't have a life). It causes my blood to boil to think that I can't even escape in my own room! If it's after 5 p.m. I will sometimes sneak into my workplace and use that time to get away.

However, we hired more people this semester that go to the library to study, so that probably means I won't have that area anymore to hide in. I would hide in the study rooms, but they have windows and you know how hard it is to relax when you know someone could be watching you like an animal in a zoo? I'm on the constant search to find places to relax and daydream.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
