i thought i was the glue holding us together, only to find out i’m the one that everyone accidentally got glue on their hands from and just awkwardly wiped off on their jeans. so now, here i am, solo at trivia night, pretending to read the questions while planning my future kids’ names with a person i haven’t even met yet... so, maybe 'your-whoever's-kids' will be fabulous little trivia champions,...
day 47 of following my dreams and I literally found myself crying over a tupperware lid that won't snap on properly. I miss the days of worrying about quarterly reports and being able to pay for my avocado toast without feeling guilty. it’s wild how I used to be stressed about the wrong things, but now I’m stressed about nothing but my bad life choices. honestly, is pursuing your passion just a co...
the way that everyone is talking about رمضان coming in 2026, it’s hitting me hard. i spent last year saying no to invitations, thinking ‘i’ll catch up later,’ and now i’m facing the reality of just… loneliness. i keep looking at the calendar, counting the days until iftar, thinking i should have said yes to the dinner invitations that never seemed appealing enough at the time. so here i am, spiraling into regret, thinking about how i’ll break my fast alone again while everyone else gathers in laughter. what’s even worse is that i have a million excuses but when i pull out my phone to invite someone over, my hand hovers… then retreats. if i could just say yes this time… but what if they say no? #2026 #ramadan

no because—just had this whole emotional breakup text prepared, detailed every reason, even threw in a quote about self-love—thought I was channeling my inner philosopher—and then they just hit me with 'ok.' like, excuse me, do you think I'm at a grocery store or something? just the way they left me hanging, like a coupon about to expire and here I am analyzing every single word, while the only th...
