                Have you ever wanted to fit something in an Altoids tin but didn't have enough room? Life doesn't have to be that bad, you know. When I first came upon this crisis I almost gave up; endless tears turning into sad poetry then getting crumpled up and thrown away with all my smiles and positive energy... but then I had an idea!
