okay maybe this sounds dramatic lol but does anyone else feel like everyone secretly knows how to be an adult except them??

i’m trying to balance classes, gym, eating properly, having a social life, not overspending, keeping my room clean, remembering deadlines, replying to people, and somehow still looking like a functioning human being 😭

like HOW are girls doing all this so effortlessly??

i literally went to starbucks to “study” today and somehow spent $18 and got nothing done except stare at my laptop and think about my life choices.

so pls tell me your best “girl survival” tips because i genuinely feel like i missed an important tutorial somewhere lol

hi 🙈 okay this is kinda embarrassing because i almost deleted this like 3 times lol

i’m mia, 21, a ucla student, and i realized lately that my life is basically just classes, cheer practice, gym sessions, starbucks runs, and pretending i’m being productive in the library 💀

i’m around people all the time but somehow still get that weird feeling of being alone sometimes? idk if that even makes sense. i’m pretty quiet in person, so making new friends has always been harder for me than it probably should be.

i’m into random late-night conversations, food spots, football games, little adventures around la, and i’m the type of person who takes quick pics of literally every meal before eating it 😭

so yeah... if you’re also looking for a friend or just someone to talk to, come say hi? tell me something random about yourself because i never know how to start conversations first 👼💙

i don’t know if this is the right place to post this lol but i’ve realized i’ve always felt safer talking to older men than guys my own age.

guys at college are fun for like… 5 minutes, but half of them can barely hold a conversation without acting like they’re in a frat competition 😭

meanwhile i’ll randomly end up talking to someone 15+ years older than me and suddenly i feel calm, listened to, understood, taken care of??? idk how to explain it.

even my friends make fun of me because apparently i have “the most obvious daddy issues ever” 💀

maybe it’s because older men feel more patient and emotionally stable? maybe i just like feeling protected for once.

or maybe i’m just insane lol.

pls tell me i’m not the only girl like this.
