girls are like apples on trees-the best ones are at the top. boys don't want to reach for the good ones because they're afraid of falling and getting hurt. instead they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground, that arent as good, but easy. so the apples at the top think that there is something wrong with them, when in reality, are amazing. that is why we just have to be a little patient and the right boy, the one who takes the chance to find the good, right apple, will come someday~
