I wanted to have a good relationship. One that's romantic and dramatic, like in the movies. But I finally became a woman at 17 and learned that men aren't really that simple.

But even when the moon looks like it's waning...it's actually never changing shape. Don't ever forget that.

The longer we live the more weight we carry in our hearts.

That moment I felt a bit like crying. I don't really know why. Nana's hand felt so warm that it even warmed my heart.

The things that stress me out haven't changed. But I don't wanna lose anything. So I thought that at least I would change. I'm lucky...that I'm afraid of losing something.

The dreams we are chasing and the reality that is chasing us are always parallel; they never meet.

For my 20th birthday in March, I'll buy myself a present for doing my best. A one way ticket to Tokyo. All I need is my guitar and a pack of cigarettes.
