Oh boy. We’re on the way up! But that also means we’re about to descend wildly. Yikes. I hope you’re strapped in.

Life is a rollercoaster, isn’t it? Ups and downs. Unpredictable turns that make your stomach drop. But it’s kinda fun. And chaotic. And sometimes it makes you want to puke. Hope you ate a sensible, no-frills breakfast!

So put your hands up or hold on for dear life. It’s your time to ride.
