I've had some days, to say the least. my birthday was a few days ago and I got to go to the cinema. It was quite fun, but it also made me feel a bit existential.
I used to have trouble getting the cheaper kids tickets, because I was a very tall child, but now that I'm an actual adult... The man at the front asked if we wanted 1 adult and 1 kids ticket. Wow. How weird is that? I spent my childhood trying to be one of the adults and was often mistaken for one, sometimes leading to horrible situations, to be quite frank, but now I'm just a kid to the people around me.
It's a bit silly that this keeps happening, but maybe it means I found my spark. Not to be mean to a version of myself that can't defend themself, but I used to look dead. I still do, in a way, but I think you can tell that I'm gonna make it. As a kid I never really planned to be around for long, just because I couldn't see a future (just in general), but I'm still here and so is the world. I would love to go back and meet child-me and tell them "I'm alive. I'm still creating. You are liked."
"Oh, and Sonic 3 kicks ass."
