When you see this, post five memories that seem especially surreal out of context. Anyone who wants to play, consider yourself tagged!

1. “You know,” I remark to the people sitting on the cliff with me, “deli chicken and garlic hummus on a cinnamon-raisin bagel is actually pretty good.”

2. I’m hiding in one of the small storage hollows built into the benches. I decide I like it here. It’s comfortable. I feel safe. They’ll never find me.

3. They tell us that if we want, we can hold a holy book of our choice in our left hand to swear on. It isn’t until afterward that we realise my mother swore allegiance to the Queen of England on her first-born child.

4. I’m riding on a bicycle. There is a skeleton riding an identical bike next to me. If only the bikes could move, I think, then I would definitely be beating him.

5. The pre-teen wearing a top hat and pocketwatch shakes my hand. He tells me his name is Fierce.
