Bossa nova in the background, playing softly but it was playing loudly earlier. I sat down here once again like I did last month and I am looking at the cup of coffee that is not mine. I don't care. I don't want a cup of coffee and I, in fact, skipped breakfast this morning just like yesterday because I am not hungry for some reason. I don't know why I come to this writing space that's provided by the library because I feel that I am not actually writing at all but rather just writing down on my blog because I am not in any mood to write to begin with. I just attended today to see how I can proceed with the facilitation of the event because I signed up to be part of this event. Well, that was last year but I will not be surprised that last year will be repeated again this year. I won't be surprised at all. I have a book with me and I am going to read it soon because I am very bored. I guess I am bored with this concept. I just agreed to help but maybe it can help ca...

Home of Art By M.A. Amru Here, often, A picturesque ancient, With rustic cuboids, Casting doubtful shadows, And a yellow adjacent, Wonders of youth, filled By an eternal will.

I keep thinking to myself about how unfair it is for me to be in such a position, and I just want to break down violently, smashing everything around me so that I can vent out that anger. I don't care if the police came or what. I don't care if the world comes to hate me for that because the world has no right to hate me for what they have done to me. It is not fair that I have to live with such stupid experiences... traumatic experiences that are often pushed aside, and people keep saying that what I face is just small, but they don't understand. They are ignorant. They only know about themselves, and they don't wish to learn about others, or those that they do learn are those that can benefit them. But I don't want to be a benefit to them because I want to be myself. I don't understand why I mus...
