The other night, I was sitting on a bench with my friend. He tells me out of nowhere to look to my right.
As I did so, I saw a dog the size of a German shepherd running towards me. It was barking the entire time, but I wasn't aware because I was busy eating.
Its boss, dozens of feet away, keeps yelling for it to come back, but it refuses to listen and keeps barking, jumping against me.
My friend was freaking out, and yelling at the dog. So, the dog went to my friend. I kept sitting where I was, but when I calmly realized it might bite me, I decided to move a bit away from the spot.
A couple of seconds later, out of nowhere, the dog jumps up against me. Now, standing on its two back feet.
Still, I was completely calm. Around this time, his boss gets there to retrieve him. He apologized, I said it was okay.
I felt nothing during the entire fiasco.
Another time, I saw a 19 year old boy get run over by a car that sped away immediately. I was the first on the scene together with my friend. He was panicking. Yelling, "Somebody please call 911." And I calmly reminded him he has a phone that he should use.
I felt nothing as I saw the guy die in front of my eyes. His eyes twitching, blinking repeatedly, and his legs twitching, with blood coming out of his head.
Either I am dead inside, or I am a psychopath. But, I was calm, nonetheless, in these tense situations.
I tried to capitalize on this, by studying nursing this year, so I could become an ambulance worker, but I dropped out after being the only male in my class out of 31 (including me.)
