it's 3am and i'm sitting in front of the mirror contemplating the existential crisis of who i am, after changing my whole aesthetic for someone who only appreciated my old self. like, did the eyeliner, the thrifted turtlenecks, and that weird obsession with artisanal breads really mean nothing? i mean, they texted me during the sevilla - alavés game to ask if i could just “tone it down a bit,” and...

not gonna lie, watching the hype around the clemson vs duke game feels like another reminder of what success looks like from the outside while I’m just sitting here wondering how to keep the lights on. everyone’s throwing money around for tickets and bets while I’m over here trying to figure out how to stretch my next paycheck to cover last month’s hidden expenses. the stress is wild, like people assume I’m living the dream because I smile on social media. meanwhile, my bank account looks like a ghost town. what’s worse? the empty fridge, or pretending like I’m thriving when I know my life is a constant game of catch-up?

it’s crazy how everyone around me is pairing up, and here i am, struggling to even remember what it felt like to have someone care. ab tak toh, my heart is still on a loop of what we had. khud se pyar karne ka koi sense nahi ban raha jab sab logo ki selfies are flooding my feed. just today, i found an old text thread between us, laughing and planning our future. felt like i betrayed myself. as muc...
