It seems very fascinating for me the 'phenomen' of sleep. The idea that in one split of a second a human mind and body falls into a sort of uncontroled state.

Or the lack of it. Simple is that. It feels like after a long flight between many time zones. Of course popping one or two sleeping pills would help a lot, but what's the point? I always assumed that a person can be most creative at night. When all around is sleeping, surrounded by silence.

Somehow I do believe in people, that it is very easy to be open and tolerant. For example being a slightly different individual than the other or having aother music taste shouldn't be a big deal anymore nowadays. In so many places still being different (maybe weaker) is a reason to be harassed.
The other day I was sitting in front of the Churchill Square observing the young english people. They all had a simirar haircut and style of dressing. I wondered if the idea of being original died somewhere between H&M and being emo. What are these people thinking? I found them common.

Once, while sitting on the southern train to London Victoria, occupied with reading Belle DeJour I noticed an old lady in front of me staring at me with disgust. I felt embarrassed. On the other side, it's none of her business what I'm reading.
