i saw another one of my friends posting about their brand new house. meanwhile, my idea of luxury is a pair of socks without holes. why does it feel like everyone got handed a treasure map while i’m here using a crumpled up fast food bag as a pillow? watching their highlight reels while i can’t even afford to leave my mom’s basement feels like some kind of sick joke. is this what adulting looks li...
not gonna lie, sometimes I still hear the ice cream truck from my childhood and it sends me into a spiral about that summer I tried to impress my crush by rollerblading, only to fall face-first in front of everyone.
