How Much Privacy Do We Want, Exactly?
The dorm was brand-new, so that was something, and I had a single room, which gave me privacy -- but I was lonely. Thinking back now, I wonder why I chose a room all by myself, after having been confined to my room at home. It probably felt safe, but I missed that college experience of having a fun roommate. -- Ina Garten, "Be Ready When the Luck Happens, A Memoir"We value privacy.

Dream Series: Back to School
The door opened, and one by one, we exited the plane. Each step on the metallic stair was rather steep, but holding onto the painted metal rails, feeling the bumps and the coarse metal underneath the layer of paint as one dragged one’s hand along, feeling one’s step, allow one to observe one’s whereabout. The roof was tall and high, half-cylindrical shaped. The metals that supported it seemed rather rusty and old, giving up its sense of robustness. The giant room was mostly empty, inhabited b...

'I' want to write about Her
There's this, girl, whom one'll call Mademoiselle, one really don't know about her; at least not that much. She had her own inner circles, and one isn't one of them.

The Diary: A Trip On The Road
The alarm rang. Snuff! It snapped one's dream in half. Grudgingly getting up, one made for the clock. Right, 5 in the morning. Not the time to go back to sleep, at least not today.
