Hey.
Do you see this face?
I know it looks like I'm about to cry.
This is actually my 'fuck off' face.
...
Okay. I'm going to Prague.
You wouldn't like it very much if I said you can only shop at one store for your whole life.
You wouldn't like it very much if I said going to college in NY is a stupid thing to do.
You wouldn't like it if I said your favorite color is the worst color ever.
You really wouldn't like it if I didn't ask you to explain, but went right on tearing down your ideas.
You would be upset if I tried to force an answer out of you and then assumed you didn't have one because you didn't answer me immediately.
You would be offended if I said something was ridiculous or out of the question without even thinking that maybe, just maybe you personally thought it was legitimate.
You would be angry if your ideas were COMPLETELY dismissed by seven or eight people all at once. Those seven or eight being people you actually respect(ed) and want(ed) to get closer to.
You would be indignant.
You would be hurt.
You would probably cry.
But that's just you. It's alright to do that to me because I have no feelings, right?
That's something you find here that you don't find a lot of other places. A lack of respect.
It's common courtesy.
look. i need to relearn to love this country. because it broke my heart. sorry.
Look at my face again.
Fuck off.
