I think I have anger/frustration/irritation issues. Today I was going home and there was this guy that sang out loud and his voice was actually not bad but I was just so darn irritated I felt like clawing at him.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres ." ( NIV 1 Corinthi

Currently reading Sayonara, Gangsters by Genichiro Takahashi. I have currently reached the conclusion that only Literature students are up to the task of analysing it. I got real excited thinking about writing The Book yesterday. I want a character to show Kang Li; especially all
