when I was younger, winnie the pooh told christopher robin that you can never have to many friends, because friends are never enough. everything is so cliche. I really wish that it doesn’t happen. I wish that everything will be fine. I wish everything will be what it is right now and that it if it ever change, change it the way I want it to be. I know the wold doesn’t revolve around me, but I’m living as me, so yes, I can *n’t be ignorant towards my own need. sorry. – can *n’t stand it anymore. I don’t want to be just average..
