I didn’t bring it up in class because I hate bringing up my accident but, since it was such a big part of my life it is hard not to relate things to it once in a while. While we were talking about Boku being alone up north and how it started to go crazy, it made me think about how that really does happen. The things that he was doing, cleaning, reading, sleeping, and running all made sense to me. Although, I wasn’t able to do those things because I couldn’t walk after a while I started to get a little stir crazy like him, I knew everyone in my neighbors schedule from watching out the window, I needed someone to talk me for a walk in my wheelchair, and I needed to have contact with people other than my family everyday. So I can’t imagine how it was for Boku not having anyone to talk to for a few days in a row, even for a guy who doesn’t seem like he would care. The other thing that we talked about was time and how it over powers our lives. I think that it is one of those things we don’t realize the effect it is having on us. I think it was the opposite for Boku. Before he went up north time didn’t seem like a big thing for him, but than once he started on his journey it seemed like he mentioned time a lot. Like train times and how long it will take him to walk somewhere and finally having to wind the grandfather clock.
