All the things I’ve been missing living on the ship
The pleasure of waking up with the sun. The pleasure of plashes of sunlight on your bed sheets. The pleasure of cooking the breakfast. The pleasure of sleeping the breakfast off. The pleasure of not picking up the phone. The pleasure of choice. The pleasure of staring at other people through the window. The pleasure of seeing other people, at first place. The pleasure of bumping into a friend on the street. The pleasure of meeting new people and seeing new faces. The pleasure of chatting on the phone with the best friend, for hours. The pleasure of not having “30 seconds left”.
The pleasure of being yourself. The pleasure of smiling only when you really feel like. The pleasure of pushing back when somebody pushed you in the crowd. The pleasure of being sarcastic and bitchy when you feel like. The pleasure of being nice and sweet when you feel like.
The pleasure of being allowed to do what you feel like. The pleasure of being yourself, whoever you are.
The pleasure of not wearing a name badge.
The pleasure of quitting halfway through. In the middle of the day, of the week, of the year. The pleasure of leaving and not coming back. The pleasure of not showing up. The pleasure of staying forever. The pleasure of possibility. The pleasure of freedom, of choices, of love.
The pleasure of catching up with an old friend for a lunch, and with another one - for coffee. The pleasure of speaking the language you want, without hiding. The pleasure of talking loudly and laughing even louder. The pleasure of drugs.
The pleasure of knowing that you might change your life right now, not in six months.
The pleasure of riding a bike. The pleasure of warm wind in the hair. The pleasure of favourite music in the ears. The pleasure of not living in a “non ipod zone”. The pleasure of driving a car.
The pleasure of taking a risk. The pleasure of being glad to be home.
The pleasure of being dressed like a crazy person. The pleasure to choose the party to go to. The pleasure of getting compliments. The pleasure of being unnoticed in a big city. The pleasure of sleeping over at a friend’s place. The pleasure of your friend brewing coffee for you. The pleasure of having breakfast outside, in the yard. The pleasure of having champagne before breakfast.
The pleasure of staying in for days when it’s cold outside. The pleasure of not taking off your pajamas. The pleasure of having days-off. The pleasure of staying in bed when you’re sick. The pleasure of going outside when it’s sunny. The pleasure of seeing the sun.
The pleasure of repainting the walls in your room. Twice a week. The pleasure of moving the furniture around 2a.m. after having had a few cocktails, with your darling friend. The pleasure of standing on your heads and laughing, just before starting to move the furniture. Or just right after. The pleasure of laughing, laughing a lot. The pleasure of never having to listen to stupid corny jokes. The pleasure of being allowed not to be corny.
The pleasure of wanting to dye your hair pink. The pleasure of doing so.
The pleasure of a fancy dinner. The pleasure of being served, not to serve. The pleasure of ordering from the menu. The pleasure of choosing the menu, the place and the people. The pleasure of changing shoes three times a day. The pleasure of occasionally buying a closet on your way home. Actually, two.
The pleasure of flirting with someone and knowing that you will not see them tomorrow. The pleasure of seeing them tomorrow, if you want. The pleasure of giving the wrong number. The pleasure of playing the role. The pleasure of being in a place where nobody knows you.
The pleasure of being in a place where nobody knows you.
The pleasure of falling in love, not hooking up. The pleasure of dating. The pleasure of the first kiss, which truly feels like the first one. The pleasure of holding hands. The pleasure of not being ashamed, or watched, or judged by others. The pleasure of not giving shit about others. The pleasure of trusting people.
The pleasure of having proper cocktails in proper glasses. The pleasure of having proper conversations. The pleasure of walking down 100 meters without being asked a 100 questions. A 100 very stupid questions. The pleasure of saying “I don’t know” when you really don’t know. The pleasure of caring, not pretending to care.
The pleasure of ignoring the jerks.
The pleasure of not knowing where you gonna be tomorrow. The pleasure of not knowing what’s gonna happen tonight. The pleasure of being unpredictable. The pleasure of living your life, not the company’s.
The pleasure of having a date with the city. The pleasure of aimless walking. The pleasure of not having “crew onboard” time. The pleasure of taking your time. The pleasure of a night life and city lights. The pleasure of seeing the sea from the land, not unseeing the land from the sea. The pleasure of doing something crazy. The pleasure of taking a bath.
Oh my god, such a pure pleasure of taking a bath.
The pleasure of catching a cab, a train, a plane. The pleasure of not knowing where you are going. The pleasure of not having to stand outside for hours in winter and freeze, but instead walking outside with a friend and freezing for fun. The pleasure of having a tall glass of gluewine afterwards. The pleasure of asking to add more cinnamon. The pleasure to stir, not shake.
The pleasure of making music, painting a portrait, writing a story. The pleasure of having time to do so. The pleasure of smoking in bed. The pleasure of never doing so, but knowing that you could. The pleasure of smoking in the room, while watching a movie. The pleasure of lighting up a cigarette when the movie gets dramatic. The pleasure of going to the movies. The pleasure of leaving one, if you don’t like it. The pleasure of playing pool, bowling and poker. The pleasure of playing piano, violin and guitar. The pleasure of taking beautiful photos of beautiful people.
The pleasure of taking beautiful photos of beautiful people.
The pleasure of ordering sushi in the middle of the night. The pleasure of buying a take-away coffee. The pleasure of making tea at 4a.m. The pleasure of walking naked around the apartment. The pleasure of laughing with your friend. The pleasure of being friends with, not just hanging out with. The pleasure of changing a job twice a month. The pleasure of stroking a cat. The pleasure of making faces to the neighbor's dog. The pleasure of teaching your friends’ parrot talking dirty. The pleasure of acting silly.
The pleasure of spending holidays with your friends. The pleasure of not wearing uniform on the New Year’s Eve. The pleasure of not wearing uniform ever. The pleasure of not having one. The pleasure of having a birthday. Once a year, every year. No exceptions.
The pleasure of wearing high heels every day. The pleasure of dressing up every night. The pleasure of being surprised by things and people, day by day. The pleasure of taking classes. The pleasure to learn. The pleasure of living on earth.
The pleasure not to live in a can in the ocean.
The pleasure of feeling alive.
Oh my god, what a pleasure.
12/12/12 - i quit my job.
