I think, when he told that to me, I must be sad, but `I know thats my problem so I can accept it and I have to sing more next. I must calm down.

Actually I have three friends who are very close to me but we only meet one or two times in months. We are very busy and everyone has different things to do. Its difficult to find time to meet. I almost don’t meet them for half a months. Have dinner/brunch/afternoon brunch, red tea. Many red smell like flower or fruits.
