“Recently I found the Instagram account of an old friend from high school and she looks totally different now. We’re around the same age, yet we’re at totally different life stages. She’s already married and it’s hard to believe, I don’t even have a boyfriend yet! I don’t want the type of life she has, but it’s hard to believe that our life-paths are so different.”
“Lately, I’ve been struggling to focus because I have an addiction to my phone. The time I spend scrolling has been excessive and it has negatively impacted my daily routine. It’s actually embarrassing how much screentime I’ve accumulated over the past few days, it’s such a bad habit.”
“In my country, there was once a high cultural expectation to live independently by the age of eighteen. Lately, however, times are changing. It’s now more common for adults to stay in their parents’ homes as long as they can still pay to care for themselves. With expenses rising, it’s perfectly understandable to not want to leave home.”
