You weren't rubbish, but you weren't all that great, either. It's the year of missed chances and horrible timing, of making mistakes and believing in the wrong people, of second-guessing, of rude awakenings, of remnant heartaches, of new heartaches, and of wavering faith.

4, 3, 2, 1
It was summer. It was fun. And for the first time after a long while I started feeling right again. Not like before, no. But not too wrong either.
