“Modern Western Civilization”

Snapshot of Another Time

“Modern Western Civilization”

Lighting candles in the bedroom, reading The Idiot’s Guide to Lost Civilizations

–                  

Enrolled in courses a grade ahead, dreaming of university

–                  

Shopping for fountain pens, mapping out second-hand stores in “exotic” downtown

–                  

Having crushes on impossible girls

–                  

Traveling on buses (or dreaming of it) to school and libraries to get out of the house. Listening to trip-hop and jazz. Reading about ancient and lost societies. Alone, amidst people.

–                  

Loneliness

[[How a person views the world is how they feel about themselves]]
