" Now this caught my attention... What is the point of marriage. Look I got a piece of paper to say i love you. Ah no thank you. It's just so the keep tabs on you. I say let's all be single. I think it was something that was instilled is us from our parent bc that was what you were "suppose" to do when you got a certain age. ... Nah I am going to rock this single life.. "
