The girl in the mirror seems cute and dear: 'cause it was she who was wrapped in the daily fight against darkness and frost, running through the snowdrifts with the warly wrapped domra (lovely, voiced soulmate) on her back. Always afraid to catch the wrong bus on never-ending hourly rides to the swimming pool or the musical school - dark, alone and too dramatic to be ever understood by anyone (haha), too solemn and tragic to make friends. Literally reading on foot while following the longest avenues to reach the class not to waste the time, always planning her day hour by hour. Managing to sell in her free time handmade articles to the classmates with the pocket money in possession. Writing books with illustrations, diaries with photos and drawings, scribbling down poetries and whispering secrets in the school corners and dictaphone recordings.... Thinking of childhood, I see blackness, lampnight, struggle and lonesome, desolate fantasies.
