Expectation

My mistake was that..


I expect other people to understand my frustrations and actually care about it.

Moreover, I haven't done any treatment or facial since months ago (my experince using Liz had traumatized me, seriously. OK, perhaps I am too exaggregating, but it does make me 'KAPOK').
