the waiting room

Date & Time : March something, 2012 &  8.04 PM

Place : Some coffee corner at a shopping mall

Finding myself several time in a situation where I have to spend enough bucks for a seat and a cup of coffee in order to kill the time waiting, somehow got me thinking. What if.. there is a tenant in a shopping mall where you can spend hours just to kill the time, without huge money, and still guilt free for being there so long. Oh and also avoiding those people who eyeing you awkwardly for sitting there hours, alone.

On my imagination this place would be just like a waiting room, but instead of a cold silver seat like in an airport or a station, the room would be filled with a lot of  huge comfortable sofa, a Parisian rug, TVs, even a console games and a book shelves full of books from many genres. People can come to this place, pay enough money by hour, and spend hours sitting there, reading books, watching tv, or just sit there doing nothing. It will never be awkward because that’s what the place for. It’s like a living room with library, and a coffee dispenser.

In this place, you can sit and reading books, watching tv, charge your electric gadgets, drink unlimited cup of coffee,  or even sleep on the couch. And if you are lucky enough, you can meet someone there and make an acquaintance. Until you reach your appointment time, and ready to leave the waiting room, still energized and fully charged.

this so-called imagination is a diamond in a rough. someday, i bet.
