last night, I was watching my classmates’ wedding video. I swear they spent fifty lakhs. And here I am, looking at my savings like it’s a failed art project. yaar, matlab samjho na, I don’t even have someone to call to just talk about feeling left out. it feels like hundreds of contacts but still, no one knows the real me. it’s funny, the world moves on while I… just sit and think about all those...
my boss literally said "we're like family here" right before telling us there will be no raises this year. i just sat there, pretending to take notes while my brain spiraled about rent, groceries, and the fact that my credit card bill looks like the novel no one wanted to read. honestly, everyone thinks I’m living it up because I wear a nice suit to work, but inside, I’m just counting the days unt...
