Do you have any idea of my routine? Things turning even worse than i thought! The majority of the time, I’d say, this does indeed happen. I’m an eternal optimist, therefore I have great aspirations for almost anything, but most of the time, they’re not met at all. But it’s something wonderful when they’re met—or even exceeded. I can think of one instance, but my trip to Paris stands out as the most unforgettable.
I had heard that the place smelled bad, was covered in dog crap, had unpleasant people, and that I wouldn’t be able to breathe for cigarette smoke. They were all mistaken when they said I’d despise it there, to be honest. It wasn’t anything like that. I regret not staying longer because it was so lovely.
