i literally spent my whole reunion listening to everyone talk about promotions and new houses while i was just hoping nobody asked about my job. i'm still at the same place since 2019, living paycheck to paycheck, pretending like my life is together. honestly, it's so exhausting trying to smile when you know everyone thinks you’re thriving, while in reality, you're just buried under hidden debt an...
