the man at the produce stand thinks i moved here this week and was giving me restaurant recommendations of my favorite places and even though iāve lived here for two years he was so excited so i couldnāt correct him. even tho i said i moved here for school two years agoā¦
so i work a pretty little customer service job right⦠this man goes āyour name is wrong. itās supposed to be m-a-y-a. where are you from?ā huh??? welcome to the interrogation station goddamn. like my mom didnāt know i would suffer be nice
we were both introducing ourselves to new people and i said her name instead of mine, and then had to go āwait wait no iām liv iām livā and it was so surreal and embarrassing and felt like the biggest deal at age 14
just ran into this old neighbour who used to be a professor at the top college in our country and he asked me when I graduated- I told him last summer and he started saying itās been 6 months- do something kid, go do your masters or something ššš
i didnāt say anything cause im gonna start working soon but also didnāt know how to explain my āfiguring it outā plan to him. i am extremely sensitive so at first felt a bit hurt but let it go cause of how little he knows about me.
