I feel like I'm in kindergarten and I feel like I'm in high school and I feel like I'm older, too.

I feel like I'm kindergarten because in class we made a big sandwich board book and we were all supposed to read it together as a class but we never did.

Feels like I'm in high school because I moved across the country before the internet and I had a hard time adjusting to the new, more conservative environment, and I spent lunch hour in the library looking at books like

"...I never saw another butterfly...: Children's Drawings and Poems from Terezín Concentration Camp, 1942-1944 by Hana Volavková"

And I feel like I'm older because I fell asleep in the morning imagining a very empty room with sunlight and an alarm clock and one hand touching another hand and I was thinking of this song...

JIN YEREI - "CANCIÓN DE LA NOSTALGIA (Original Mix)"
