Awake, Scroll, Regret, Repeat

​Alarm buzzes, eyes flutter, and it’s time for some much-needed social connection. She tried to pry her eyes open a tad more to optimize for peak scroll-efficiency because, hello, it’s already 7:05 am, and she needed a catch-up.

A concert happened. Everyone she knew was there. She didn’t recognize the band, but a few storied in and she recognised the tunes. Ah, that damn Spotify should make sure to highlight the artists' names of what obviously was her new favourite band too. How would she otherwise know to be there...?

She made a mental note: contemplate a Spotify breakup later.

FOMO, in full swing, had her brainstorming Insta-worthy “I-was-there” fakeries. Mid-plot, a cat compilation appeared—absolute watch and reshare material to prove she was, indeed, the epitome of fun.

Suddenly, a numb butt alert! Glancing at the time, she sprung from the now warm and cozy yet unyielding toilet seat, darting towards day’s first work call.

9:00 am calls though. Who does that?!

Stay inspired. Keep inspiring.
