❝ You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who’ll decide where to go…

There has just got to be more to life than the bullshit heartaches I have to go through.

Fine. You’re too busy for me these days. You’d rather spend time with other people. Fine.

Fine. Everybody is too busy for me these days. Everyone would rather spend time with other people. Fine.

Just fine.

It just really fricken bugs me that I always have to be the one to drive people around.

It’s like I can’t ever socialise in Wollongong. Like, there’ll be nothing happening in Sydney and there’ll also be nothing happening in Wollongong (and hence no reason to go down there). Then, when there is something in Wollongong, there’s something on in Sydney.

I feel like I will never win because I will always choose Sydney. I can’t help it. I grew up here. I’m a city girl.

❝ Your net worth to the world is usually determined by what remains after your bad habits are subtracted from your good ones.

❝ If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
