Waking Up
3 Lunchbreaks “I didn’t want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that’s really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you’re so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.” ~ Ned Vizzini

2 Lunchbreaks There is a big difference between popularity and being seen.
