Irony

Somewhere along the lines whether you're studying or working, there will be people who will say 'ar.. take a break', 'don't have to work so hard', 'why so stressed'...And then you are left with an 'F', or that you got a sounding from the boss. And then you looked around, and you are alone. 

Somewhere along the lines you meet a guy / girl, and there will be people who will say 'oh, he/she has a reputation' 'he/she is not reliable'. And then the person runs along and have a baby, and that guy/girl that you like ended up with someone who took the chance. And then you looked around, and you are alone. 

Somewhere along the lines you lowered your standards to make someone comfortable and then one day the person turned up with an LV bag and said, hey, where's yours? And you think, wtf, I knew LV long before you know how to spell Louis Vuitton. 

What I was really trying to get at is this, you can't let someone's values be imposed on yours, you have your own goals to pursue and your own standards to follow, and if you don't get it, then what? And if you lowered it, then what? You can't say, oh, I listened to someone, or that I wanted them to feel comfortable, because why then did you not listen to yourself or did it your way? 

Okay, I'm trying to distract myself from the 3,000 word essay due the following Monday.
