Post-Rainy day
Simple day, slightly tired from work. Love it, though. I ended up working yesterday when I wasn't supposed to because I called my supervisor to ask a question, but he ended up asking me to come to work to put in some practice (by that, I mean selling experience, which I have none of) before Saturday. I needed it, but now I have some lady coming in on Saturday [that I have trouble understanding because of her exotic accent] looking for a computer, and she said that she'd probably look for me specifically. Sure, it's awesome I have time to prepare, but I hope I can sell her everything she needs for her small home-run business to do well... and I think the original computer I showed her was sold later that day, so I have to find her a new one, or custom-build one for her (which is the better option).
Anyways, work is cool so far, people are nice, some customers are... difficult... and I have some homework to catch up on (it's not due yet, but it will be in a couple week's time). I've gotten back in touch with Tracy, an old friend (as long as I've known Jade) who I fell out of contact with when she went to Lee, and quit orchestra. For those of you who have a problem with anything I write, comment on it, please. I have years of experience consoling people and broken hearts.
And now for Silent Hill 4's story...
**Henry Townsend, a young man, has just started his life, moving into an apartment that has been empty for several years. Not knowing anyone but the superintendent, and just bumping into his next door neighbor, Rachel, he continues life. After a short time, thought, he starts having these nightmares, terrifying ones, night after night. After a few nights of this, he wakes up in a cold sweat, as usual, but as he reaches his front door, he finds that it has been locked closed by numerous chains and heavy padlocks draped across the door frame from the inside, as if someone were still in there. After checking out his apartment further, he finds his windows are stuck, unable to be opened, and the TV and radio no longer work, as if someone were trying to cut him off from the rest of the world. He goes back to his door, and finds, to his surprise, writing in blood across the door, reading "Don't go out! -Walter". Looking through the peephole, he sees across the hall, 15 bloody handprints, all lined up. He bangs on the door, trying to get anyone's attention, but fails. Suddenly, a loud boom resonates throughout his apartment, coming from down the hall that leads to his bedroom and bathroom. He searches his room, with no results, but when he crosses the hall and opens the bathroom door, he sees tiles scattered along the floor. Upon opening the door further, he discovers a hole in his wall, about one and a half foot diameter. Against his better judgement, he breaks off the pipe dissecting the hole, and carries it with him as he crawls into the hole to find a way out of his apartment. The next thing he knows, Henry finds himself regaining consciousness, sitting on the steps of the escalator that reminds him of the subway. He reaches bottom, and looks back upwards whence he came, seeing only the steps receding into pitch black, nothing but a dead end. Something hits his foot. He looks down, only to find that the pipe he picked up has traveled down with him, and rolled off the escalator to bump against his foot. Looking around, and seeing only the dark, dirty hallway of concrete ahead, he picks up the pipe, and trudges forth."
