On-screen text
older sisters on any random day
I love my life
I don't have enough hobbies
I feel guilty I'm not living closer to home
Maybe I should start a second business
Why am I not travelling the world right now
Who's birthday is coming up
I need to rest
Sleep when I'm dead
Should I check in with all my friends
Should I host another event
There's no way this is the right path
Comparison is the thief of joy
Is it time for a relationship
Trust no one
I'm almost out of Greek yogurt
Should I cancel my ClassPass membership
Start weight training
I'll just text some of my friends to check in
When was the last time I called my grandparents
I haven't cried in a while that's probably bad
