All the people I wonder about.

This monotonous life

I am so tired of pretending

I feel like I’ve pretending for so long

That I forgot what I was really like before

We were sitting under a banyan tree

And a friend of mine said,

“No one knows the real you”

And that is the truest thing

someone has told me all my life

And that’s all I ever wanted to be

A mystery

An enigma

I don’t want to be your answers

I am questions

Dystopian times (unabridged)

I read '1984' by George Orwell a few years back. I could only read up to 70% of it for some reason. In the first chapter, the protagonist secretly writes a journal entry as a sort of protest, or a way of telling his story to future generations. Thankfully, we're not there yet, but I imagine sooner or later, we as a collective world will reach that level of dystopia. I can't help but wonder, 'Has the world always been like this, or I'm just noticing it?

And all of this leads to one being in a certain dilemma. Do I try...

Since the year 2008 this mesmerising price has been shared among two, who are known to the world as CRISTIANO RONALDO and LIONEL MESSI.

All the bright places

Theodore Finch is fascinated by death. Every day he thinks of ways he might die, but everyday he also searches for -and manages to find -something to keep him here and alive and awake. Violet Markey lives for the future, counting the days until graduation when she can escape her small Indiana town and her aching grief in the wake of her sister's death. All the bright places is a 2015 young adult novel by Jennifer Niven. Unlike what the cover conveys, it is not a mediocre teenage love story.

Finch and violet meets at the top of the bell tower at school, both considering to jump off. But somehow they both save each other from doing so. Later finch persuades violet to be his partner for their U.S geography-“wander Indiana project”. They explore every bit of Indiana before graduation. Th...
