What's up maniacs? This week I'm talking about the quote "A hard life is a good life" and what I think of it (in relation to the story of Finding Nemo). If you haven't seen the movie I suggest you watch it but I do give a synopsis so don't worry. Next week I will be talking either about more stupid things I've done while manic, or whatever I want! We'll see. Hope y'all are having a good week.
