But that was seiously sick... i mean, i must have appeared so desperate.....sick..

I should start paying more attention to my dreams. The factory part' of my dream must have been about the interview. I understand it all now. Stupid dreams. The dream of going to America was also what caused me to be in this horrible plight now.
I should really stop dreaming.

Im trying to find the spot on the ceiling that's leaking. That way i can put this big pail under it (it is a perfectly good pail. I don't see why that old lady a few floors down threw it away.......)and my floor will stop getting wet. Its scary you know, to get up in the morning and step straight into a puddle of ice-cold water.
Yeah, i think that's the spot. I'll just leave the pail there and see how it is tomorrow. Right now its time to zzz.
-----
Its morning and i've just fallen face-down onto some cold water. Guess i was wrong about the spot.
-----
Class was boring.
------
Basketball practice was ok.
-----
Now I'm home again and i'm leaving the door open so that the puddles of water can evaporate. Rent is due soon so i really gotta find a job. No way am i going to my parents for help. I think there's this coffeshop that's just opened and needs staff. I'll check it out tomorrow after practice.

Maybe being a coffeeshop boy wasn't such a great plan. The kitchen where I'm washing dishes is full of colonies of ants that are crawling across the bar of soap. A rat just ran across my left shoe and the tap is screwy. It keeps on squirting short bursts of water through the top and onto my face. Not to mention all my co-dishwashers and kitchen staff have multiple earrings in various parts of their body and tatoos all over them., they don't wear any shirts either. And they're all taller than me.
I feel so intimidated.
Nevermind, I'm in no place to complain. I need the money and since boss was so nice as to take me in, i should be grateful.
I should be grateful. I say as one beefy man hands me a new stack of dirty plates. Yeah, i really should. i wanted a job and now I have one. Another rat runs past. I wrinkle my nose in disgust and train my eyes on washing dishes. There's a whole stack of them. If i want to knock off before midnight, i better get moving.
Another tatooed, pierced, shirtless man walks over carrying a stack of plates in one hand. He places them by the sink and then leans against it.
Why does a school boy like you need to do this sort of work? He so much taller than me that i can fell his breath on my hair. Ugh.
I need to pay my rent.
Poor thing. He says, then turns and goes back to frying some bloody chicken.
Poor thing? POOR THING?
What does that idiot take me for? I don't need his pity. Does he think I'm very deprived of the good things in life just because I don't imprint dragons on my chest and stab my nipples and eyebrows with dangly hoops?
Nevermind, i should be grateful remember? Right. I should be grateful. I should be grateful.
I should be grat----ukeualgh!!!! The tap shoots a burst of water right into my mouth.
-tbc-
I'm so evil^^
