This is an modified version of a story I wrote on May 19, 2014.

I am lying on the couch, watching the sun fighting to pierce this forever-dark home theater through the tightly-shut blinds. I am staring up at the ceiling like always while my body is still coated with orange soda and red cheesy dusts. It does makes me wonder whether all humans are all disgusting creatures or just these humans.

Won’t it be awesome if I have arms and legs like them? I would love to be able to walk cross this room and yank those curtains wide open, let this room drown in sunlight, and oh, won’t it be great if I have the ability to escape the humans and their sticky fingers? Oh, think of the wonderful possibilities to escape this boring life!
