the whole world is celebrating derrick rose’s jersey retirement. i’m sitting here thinking about how the one kid i grew up with suddenly acts like we’re strangers. i saw him the other day at the grocery store, he completely avoided eye contact. maybe he thinks i'm that lost cause, like his childhood crush on a basketball star. sometimes i wonder if he remembers when we swore to become pro athletes...
it's 2am and i just finished watching a volcano documentary about kilauea while pretending to mentor a friend who is 3 years older than me. does anyone else feel like a fraud when you realize you are literally winging it in life like this? meanwhile, lava is flowing from the earth, and here i am just trying to navigate basic conversation without sounding like a hot mess. like, what am i even doing...
