single glazed windows cheap bread
My room faced an alley, what luck the single-glazed windows did nothing against the symphony of sounds outside. at 2:20 am, a lorry decided to audition as if it were inside my room, and a few hours later, the bin lorries joined the party. i didn't even get to sleep properly, as seagulls fought over who knows what right above my head. the breakfast was nothing special. The scrambled eggs looked artificial, paired with questionable cheese and cheap bread.
