Lawng Island

Yesterday I went to a seminar in "Lawng Island" with Granma Rose. I realised that it creeps me out when I go there. Living in the city I feel safe maybe because it's my comfort zone. I got out the train and had to get a cab to take me to the venue. The have the communal cab situation out on "the Island" so i ended up sharing with another guy. The man was set to be dropped off first, in a very desolate area of a huge mall parking lot. As we were going into this area the first thing going through my mind was that they were bringing me here to kill me and that I should probably take out my cell phone in case I needed to call 911. Nothing happened, the guy was dropped off and then I got taken to my destination.

The seminar was boring, lawyers talking HR law. Not only that there were some seriously annoying HR people in attandance. Mainly those that went with the whole department and asked stupid questions. One of the lawyers (which was also the only man in the room) fell asleep when the other one was talking. That was pretty bad. I felt bad for him, locked up in a room full of women all by himself. Out on a limb with crazy HR ladies. After the seminar I was driven safely back to the train station where I decided to wait in the waiting room since it was so cold. I got creeped out by a teenager that was listening to his mp3 player so loud it sounded like a stereo. That's not that part that creeped me out. He looked at me with a big smile on his face and when I went to sit down he kept on following me with his eyes. At that point I decided that it wasn't that cold and quickly exited the waiting area. In sum, lawng island gives me the creeps.

I am also going to report that I am no longer depressed (for now of course). I have moved on to the second phase: rage. This is a better phase to be in because now I just don't give a rat's ass and I feel like cursing a lot. Also, it allows me to release my anger by way of giving people dirty looks and saying nasty things to them all the time. This is only when I'm provoked of course. Otherwise I just mind my own business and go about my daily life.
