A journal.

This morning I have a mental block, or writer’s block, whatever you call it. There’s nothing to write about. I’m sitting on a comfortable swivel chair and the table is just right but the mind has nothing to bite. I had better write about nothing or spend the rest of the day reading.
It’s 2 p.m. and I haven’t read anything. I might as well think of the past. But I can hardly remember anything. . . . past be damned. I only know I was a shy boy and still I am. Four months from now I am 21. Oh boy, how long will it take before you realize that as long as you’re shy, or pretending to be a moron, people will take advantage of you because shyness, to them, is a form of weakness? Now I remember (but the images are vague) that my stupid, moronic classmates in high school and in college looked at me that way and they took advantage at every opportunity. I understand it now because students are morons in general. That’s all for now; at least I’ve filled out this page like an application form for a job. Hey, did I tell you I’m a fresh accounting graduate looking for a job? But that would be for another entry.
