You should learn from your experiences.
I should learn from my experiences.
I shouldn't say, entirely that I shouldn't have done it... just try to learn from it.

Learn what I want...
Learn something about myself, about them, perhaps get inspired, get happy, get sad unfortunately, but try to decipher those.

Change?

Just when you think you've figured it out, everything changes.

You CAN think about it pessimistically.
You don't have to, however.
x is gonna be an asshole with lots of excuses and be very forgetful. why? bc isnt that the way society is?...

I will try not to be asshole/bitch. I don't like to make excuses for anything. There shouldn't be such a thing.
