I just didn't want to do the activity the same stupid way as them. If I was going to do something, I was going to do it differently.

我就是不想同他们一样干这么蠢的事，我要干就干得与众不同。

People are not stupid. They can tell if your passion for a project or an activity has faded.

人们并不愚蠢，当你对一个项目或活动的热情已经枯萎的时候人们可以看出来，拒绝它并且让负罪感到一边去吧。
