My loudspeaker.
An outlet for my emotions.

Got chased... around the library this evening!
No no, we aren't playing catching there. No no, we aren't shouting to each other there.
We were abiding teenagers, Siting at the tables and chairs. (At the pre-schooler corner)
Suddenly a big shadow overshadowed us. We were startled but we didnt make a big fuss.
"You got to move," she exclaimed In a tone, as though we were dogs to be tamed.
"But we are researching on kid's materials", we said. "No no, you got to move. Others will complain, I'm 'fraid."
Just because we aren't children, we aren't allowed to sit there. Just because we aren't parents, we aren't supposed to be there.
So we moved our butt to the other side of the library, (still at the kids level but at the "adult" tables and chairs) To avoid further misery...
So I thought to myself, Maybe we were too big ourselves... Just like Giants among a world of little elves.
But the lady wasn't really kind. She came over again and gave us a piece of her mind.
"No, you shouldn't sit on the floor, For I've got a table as I just showed two children the door!"
We saw two kids, their mum and ah ma packing, Evidently they have been asked to move, thus leaving...
So in the library there's actually Adults' Chairs and Children's Chairs, Just like the story about Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Baby Bear and Goldilocks with the golden hair!
Don't ever complain about my rhyming, I'll BBQ you.
I'm really comtemplating to write to the Straits Times Forum about this matter.
The fact that I'm a teenager doesn't mean I can't have a mind on my own. Being a young adult doesn't mean I have lesser human rights. Salespersons looked down on me even though I have purchasing power. Never ever studied in an elite school doesn't mean I can't spell or write. Being an average student DOESN'T mean I'm doomed to fail.
