Silence

There is a difference between real silence and dorm silence. Perhaps I'm too sensitive, but I'm sensing that there is no real silence or peace in the dorm on a Saturday. Atmosphere is pretty stale and quiet and no one goes about doing much. Sometimes I just try to shake things up by doing something fun, but today, the atmosphere is definitely dead. There's just a really eerie silence in the dorm today. I hate it this way. That's one of the reasons I hate the dorm because everyone is just so indifferent and they don't really care about anything else least their sleep or their image and their popularity. It's quite hard sometimes when you can't find people who are really genuine and who are just around who are not motivated by anything other than making themselves happy. I believe that when you're happy, the atmosphere will be cheery because you'll do interesting things that will make yourself happy and your surrounding and the things you do will be pleasant. Don't try to fake happiness but try to make yourself happy. There is a difference and your intuition can distinguish that.
