I used to believe I was really special. Like, I used to think that I could reach anything that was on my mind. Going to Harvard? No problem, I could do that easily. Now, I'm 20 and I'm hit with the fact that it's not as simple. Maybe I am NOT special... It's quite depressing how a boy with huge dreams and ambition turned out to become the person of today. I still pray and manifest for my dreams. But 8 yr old me had hoped a much, much more successful youth...

I used to think that when couples went in the car together, the older one always had to do the driving, especially since my dad is older than my mum and drove before her, so my aunt and uncle, with my aunt being one year older, got a bit confused when I assumed that it was her that had driven to the house when it was actually him that did.
