Not up to it: (stories for when we get successful)
In the beginning, everyone was there. It seemed as if they’d support the cause all the way. It seemed we had a hit. No one could stop us, we were on top of the world. We brought something fresh, so the world stopped and worshipped. Days went by and the “new” became part of everyday […]
