Changmin teases me so much...it's to the point that it feels strange when he doesn't.

You may strive to be like them but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

Belgium is modernizing itself and it gives me joy.

Rule of art: let half-blind purpose lead you.
