Chapter 51 blue suede shoes─blue suede shoes

"It doesn't matter if you burn my house down, it doesn't matter how much I drink, Anyway, as long as you are happy.But, baby, please don't touch my blue suede shoes. " Carl Perkins "Blue Suede Shoes" It is because of this song that I dreamed of blue suede shoes for a long time.I feel that as long as I wear blue suede shoes, my life will be very happy.That was when I was fourteen. Because I really like this passage: "But, honey, please don't touch my blue suede shoes." I thought to myself, I wish I could be sixteen soon.As soon as I'm sixteen I'm going to buy a pair of blue suede shoes.I think sixteen seems to be a good age for blue suede shoes.

I think by the time I'm sixteen, I'll have fifteen or sixteen girlfriends, and I'll go out with them every day and say, "Hey, hey, don't touch my blue suede shoes."When I was fourteen, I used to think about stupid things like that. Then two years passed like the intermission of two movies shown in a row.I am sixteen years old.On my sixteenth birthday, I finally bought my dream blue suede shoes. So what happened? --Nothing happened. The girl I dated in March already has a boyfriend.The man asked to make out with her, and she was very troubled by it.So come to discuss with me.

that is it. The girl I dated in June is simply impossible to talk to.When I mentioned the South Pole, she was thinking of the North Pole.So both the white bear and the penguin lost their places to live and had to travel around. That's it. July date girl who weighs 3 kilos over my ideal. September date girl who keeps blowing her nose at the movies, but she's cute.When we went on our second date, she said to me, "Gee, those blue suede shoes of yours don't go with you." So, I put the blue suede shoes in the shoe cabinet. She doesn't have a boyfriend, and when I mention Antarctica, I always think about Antarctica.Not too fat, as long as I get better from the cold, I shouldn't blow my nose all the time, and I don't worry too much about making out.

All in all, just like this, I gradually became a little happier.
