Loner love thyself
I should really get to sleep earlier. Sleeping at 3am is not fun - feel shit the whole of the next day. And got nothing done. Besides eating.
Man the more I complain the more i seem to be eating. It helps too that we had a steamboat on Sat nite where i stuffed myself to the brim and we have been eating the leftovers for the whole of today as well. And I didn't have "time" to exercise cos i was too busy eating and sleeping. ai.

Loneliness is all around us.
So sometimes when I look into the future. I don't see a Happy loving environment.
I see myself, old and fat.
And alone.
