last night, I was randomly chosen to mentor someone and I literally have no idea what I'm doing. caught myself doodling elaborate maps in a notebook, planning our "journey to success." my plan includes treasure hunts, motivational dance breaks, and snacks, obviously. honestly, what does mentorship even mean? I'm pretty sure I just turned this into an after-school special that nobody asked for.
the way my situationship introduced me as "a friend" while holding my hand in front of his actual girlfriend hit differently. like, i'm out here watching everyone go crazy over those mega millions winning numbers, and i'm over here thinking how i would trade in my lottery dreams for a normal date. now i’m wondering if it's too late to join the winning numbers trend or just give up on love altogeth...
no because i literally moved to a new city for this guy and he ghosted me three months later. like, why didn’t he at least break up in person? now i’m over here ordering takeout like it’s an Olympic sport, trying to find meaning in jos buttler’s sixes instead of my own LIFE choices. just discovered i own a whole shelf of his favorite snacks while my new neighbors are all perfect couples who probably met in an actual romcom. feel like i should send him a thank you card for making me realize it is, in fact, possible to crush my own dreams. #JosButtler #existentialcrisis

it’s 3 am and i just checked my bank account after the weekend. i’m manifesting a secret inheritance from a long-lost Canadian relative who, fingers crossed, left me a lifetime supply of poutine and maple syrup. if i imagine it hard enough, maybe i won’t have to wake up tomorrow and face that delivery bill for a full week of takeout. #Canada #HypotheticalRiches
