Independence Day

[dadadreamer]

...was a bit of a strange one. First of all the weather was strange. All day it threatened to rain in an ironically British bank holiday kind of way, threatening to disrupt the BBQs that were happening on every block.

I had been offered the day off work, but had decided to come in to lend a hand as they were going to be short staffed, in return

No I know that you're not all bad, otherwise I wouldn't have come here myself! It was just a bit of a weird night, that's all.

It feels really weird for me, rubbing up against all of these rich people. The trouble is that they're the ones who support the organisation that is funding me to come here, so basically they're paying my rent and air fare. So all the shaking hands and polite small talk is something we're expected to do. Sucks tho'.

It gets worse than that, I'm starting to pick up the accent already.

The end part sounds kind of nice, even if it was pissing down. Maybe you'll look back fondly. I don't know.
