What I am
Today
Today is the first day of my life, funny how everyone who says it, right before something life-changing happens? The life-changing can be bad, dragging them down like weight or uplifting them making them rise above. Well, that is exactly what happened, as of right now I'm still figuring out if it's a weight or not. The beginning of the day was normal, I woke up to my alarm blaring next to my ear, the tune was a generic tune that grate my nerves. I rolled over turn off my bed got up to get ready for my day. My apartment is crappy on the south side of Louisville, I remember growing up not too far from here and it was beautiful, and told myself that I wanted to live here when I become older. Man, how time changed I thought as I brushed my teeth, now the area I live in is crappy, when the mayor decided to shut down the projects and turn put them out they paid them to get out, with that type of money they moved right in the area always wanted to live. This has lowered the property value, now everything is run down not even pizza hut deliver in my area. I put on my wrinkled work clothes ( made sure I smell them since they haven't been washed recently) and regretted getting up already. Going on nothing but steel resolved and determination repeating my daily mantra “ i can do this” as I locked my door and unlocked my car, sliding into my car seat all the while wanting to run into my apartment and forget this day ever happened .taking a deep breath, I started the car and started my route to my job, this is all muscle memory, the twist, and turns of the roads every light and stop signs, the one thing I know by heart. Overall thinking how muchIi hate my job, the tedious of it, how i feel no accomplishments at the end of the day. Pulling into the parking lot of my job, a meaningless tech pop up company. The company name is irrelevant since they change it every month or so, as i walk into the door scan my key card, traveled to the third floor. As i sigh in relief when i got into my cubicle, making small talk with people who don't even care about you what so ever makes my skin crawl.
