I was on stage with my friends and we were performing to a large outdoor crowd. I was among the few who were in charge of the taiko drums. People in the audience were waving around giant red and blue banners and my friends were betting on which side was going to “win”. All of a sudden large metal gates started swinging inwards in a wave-like fashion from the back of the crowd to all around the stage. Someone said it was for our safety.

I checked into the hotel with my dad and the room keys were loaded onto an app on our phones. My parents were getting ready to head to a street demonstration and we sat in the lobby as they showed me on their phone where they were going. I couldn’t recognize the place from Google Streetview but apparently there was a McDonalds tucked in between two buildings there.

I was playing Deadlock and my game crashed so I decided to stop for the day. I took the elevator to head to our other apartment but when I got to the ground floor I realized I had forgotten my keys and had to go back upstairs to get them.

I was playing a game of Deadlock on a map that was set late at night. I chased a Mo & Krill down a street lit up by sodium street lamps.

The party at a friend’s house was winding down and they offered to let me nap until 11 if needed one before going home. I was so exhausted that I curled up into a ball on the floor, barely covering myself with a towel.

I was preparing a bath an before class with some friends. Someone quipped about how when we were gone, it would be like “none of us were ever here”. Like the dirt on our skin, evidence of our individual existences will also one day be washed away. “Uhh… based?” someone said. “What is the date anyways?” I asked. I knew that classes were supposed to start sometime mid-June. The month was already nearly over. We were much later than I expected.

I was meeting with an old friend for the first time in a while and she gave me a tight hug. She playfully rubbed my nipples while we sat half naked at her place. I wasn’t sure when was the next time we’d be able to meet again.

I could feel the rumbling of the engine and my parents trying to wake me up. I heard them laughing as I presumably lay in the backseat of the car.

I was in a hotel hallway and I listened to a flight attendant talk about her most recent 40 hour shift. She invited me to her room to show me her CS:GO clips. I asked if she was just looking for company for the night. A friend was trying to set me up with someone but I wasn’t feeling it. I sent a LINE message to call off our meeting.

I scrolled through the group chat of my previous company. Someone was telling everyone to cherish the good times after the recent discovery of a “Vollen Mole”.

There was a big assembly on campus and I was helping with the preparations. We had to put together these large puzzle pieces in the courtyard. The area I was working on was near a French flag. Today’s assembly was in memory of a student who passed away in 2016. A film was being shown which had an AI generated clip of the aforementioned student dancing.
