And usually I love the sound of the words, the way they dance on the page. Today, they fall flat. My attention bobbing in the cosmos. All free brain-space is marinating in gap month fizz.

I’m going to explore the world, find my passion, try everything! The fizz shoots up my spine and a smile sprouts. ↗
