I’ve been doing this thing and I’ve only recently realized I’m doing it. I’m apologizing. And maybe that seems normal because I’m Canadian and I’m just living the stereotype. Maybe apologizing doesn’t seem like a bad thing because it’s good to know when to say you’re sorry because a lot of people don’t. You apologize …
Sometimes I get stuck and I don’t know what to do about it. I hold onto things I don’t need to, I fixate on things that don’t involve me, I try to fix things that I have no reason fixing, that don’t need to be fixed. I don’t know why I do this.
I have a strange taste in music that mostly consists of showtunes and a few pop and indie songs in the mix. I listen to the radio a lot and find what music I like their, usually attaching myself to one song that I’ll listen to on repeat until I get bored with it or …

I’m not very good at remembering certain things I’ve done; or rather I’m not great at remembering achievements. It’s not that I have a bad memory; it’s actually pretty good (unless it’s remembering people, then its bad).
