Did you know? I like the music of jazz so much and last night I really wanted to come to the show. But I had problem. I could not come to the event. The event only for people aged 18+ years. To enter the show must with KTP and I don’t have it. I was 16 years old and May 23 I’m 17 years old. So obviously I’m not allowed to enter the show.

My brother came to the event. He’s 20 years old. And he made me feel so envy.
