School and College
Where in school there was a sense of buildup and progression, in college there is but a series of intermissions, a collection of fragments along a flattened stairway, a constant scramble to proceed as quickly as possible without a destination.

The scene pans across the patient's brown eyes to the blue eyes of the doctor, the irises of which are blue. The doctor awakens in a bed that is not his own and quickly realizes he is in the mind of the patient....[More]
