    At 5:30 AM, the young, naive, Jenny Drpich is all dressed up finally ready to leave her home and head to her job for the first time. On her way, she grabbed a copy of West Australian newspaper, a leftover of cinnamon bun from last night and a freshly brewed cup of Long Black Arabica.

In addition, when Brian turns into things no one notices not even people sitting right next to him. This shows how much people ignore him and how lonely he is.…
