First poem!

Who thought this day would come? I don't write poems. Well, I never write poems except for this one day a few years ago when I was sick of everything that had to do with the class I used to be in at school and all the people in it. I basically had a rough year where everyone kind of ignored me and treated me like I wasn't even there. I had a crush on this guy, who was extremely mean to me in particular due to the fact that we supported rivaling football clubs, but he didn't look at me twice. Now I know that he's nothing and he wasn't worth all the time spent thinking and wishing that he would actually see me.
Anyways, this poem is about me being angry with the world and some of the people in it one day. This is also the ONLY poem I've ever written, and probably the only one I'll ever write as I'm not very good with these things. It's not "correct" in any way when it comes to poetry techniques and such, it's just my thoughts put down on paper and nothing else.

I was sitting outside in the garden (the weather is bliss today; a bit of wind but still warm and really sunny) having a coffee and just thinking about life, ha, and I came to think of this poem. I basically thought "shame it's not written in English so more people can read it" and then, if you had been there, you probably would have seen the light bulb go off on top of my head. It was like, why didn't I think of this before? I could translate it! Sometimes I amaze myself with my own stupidness... Jeeze. So yeah, check my poem out if you want to!

Other things worth mentioning; I so rocked the job interview yesterday! :D It went so well and it couldn't have gotten any better than it did. So right now it's fingers crossed for me getting hired! I will find out sometime next week. The guy who interviewed me said there'd been over 800 (!!) people applying and about 10% of them had been called to do an interview. Woah, I felt super-lucky when I found out!

I hope everyone is having an awesome Saturday so far!
