I once read a book called, "the Limits of Atr" which contained great pieces of literature written over the ages. One inclusion was the quote, "Damn human nature."

Once back at my Nan's, everyone was silent, no one wanted to do anything. Dad read a book quietly, Nan sat and sobbed to her, mum went to fetch some chips from the chippy, and I listened to my music.

回到奶奶家后，所有人都默不做声，大家都什么也不想干。爸爸静静地在看书，奶奶坐着，独自啜泣，妈妈去店里买些炸土豆片，而我，则听着音乐。
