The Dreams In Which I'm Dying

Hello.

Yesterday was crazy. The world seemed to have lightened up in an instant once I stepped into the Republic Cultural Theatre. Many familiar worn out faces have become what the expression of joy is, to see all your long-lost friends and to chat about all the crap that happened during those lonely times in the darkness. And the lively concert, IKEBANA, had really made my day. It sports funny emcees, powerful acts and really soulful symphonic music. And the finale - prizegiving, gathering and partypopping. That was a blast. I had so much fun that it's almost criminal. But upon leaving the theatre, the world had once again been darkened, the joy gone, the soulfulness gone awry. And all I'm left with, is myself.
