Kohane
Oh...
Kohane
(The way it raced that day...)
Kohane
Yeah, it is beating really hard.
Kohane
But I don't think it's for the same reason.
Kohane
I'm mainly thinking about what I have to do. The pressure to succeed, to surpass that night...
Kohane
And what I want is taking a back seat to that.
Kohane
Which isn't good, right?
After figuring out what it is I really want to do.
