Hi there my little friend!

You wake up and go to school. You arrive just in time to the first class and pretend to pay attention as you struggle not to fall asleep. All things considered, it is a good day. You are tired, yes, but that doesn´t take you away from the fact that it is Friday; you are with your friends, and the classes don´t seem that bad, specially considering that there are no quizzes scheduled for today. Like I said, it is a good day. Nothing special about this, although let´s be real, there ain´t nothing you look forward to more than  the weekend.

As the day goes on, all you can think about is which movie you and your friends are going to watch today at the theater, but right in the back of your head there is something that makes you feel uncomfortable. You look over your shoulder, and there he is. With his some what recently applied braces, his large gray hoodie and emo hair, he eats in the last table from the last row in school cafeteria. At a simple sight, you may think he is just a creepy loner, and by the way he sadly and carelessly eats his sandwich, in the empty landscape that surrounds him, you might feel pity for this person. He probably is alone because his friends don´t have free lunch time at the same hour as he does or maybe he just does´t want to sit next to other people because he feels awkward meeting new people. Whatever is the case, the point is that he is alone, and the picture of him just sitting there causes sadness to every poor soul that happens to grasp a glance of his loneliness, which is why he prefers to sit way in the back.

Well, I am that guy, and believe me when I tell you that the time alone is not nearly as bad nor as horrible as you might think. And no, I´m not a pertinacious creeper, I am just a normal guy, enjoying his sandwich. It is incredible, though, how much that free time allows for the mind and imagination to roam freely out of the shackles that the reality of our society bounds it to. Which is why I have decided to share some of those thoughts with you, my loyal companions of this empty table; Let us have great conversations about movies, politics, video games, life, society, relationships, the universe, and many many other stuff that I will come up with in the future days of sitting in this cafeteria. 

I hope that we get along very well. And if you ever disagree with something that I have to say, just remember that that sensation that someone is watching and that smell of bacon sandwich might not only be product of your imagination
