Balloons

are mankind's greatest invention. Helium ones, specifically fuschia helium ones x 1000.

You cannot believe the simple joy i got from seeing so many balloons, and then standing on tiptoe to try and catch them and take them down, and then accumulating so many balloons in the hallway that the lights got eclipsed and the GM of the british club had to come and ask us to move them somewhere else coz it was making the place dark. And then popping them with a pole with pins attached on the top: modern day improvised-pike. And then we realised people actually WANTED the balloons, so we started giving them out to random doctors who were there for the conference. And THAT was kinda fun. I haven't given random things to random people in a while.

Who kenw such simple joy could come from such simple things? Happiness is elusive, i guess, you find it in the strangest places. I decided to liberate 5 of them and scatter them to the winds of time and change. Freeeeeedom!
