I was always that kid who “seemed older.” When I was young, this got me praise from adults and made me feel mature and smart.
Now, “seeming older” makes me feel incompetent and bewildered. It’s terrible, and happening more often.
There’s no place that makes me feel older than the mall.
I decided to go to Mall of America after work yesterday. I recently got a replacement cellphone and I needed to get a case for it. I also wanted to buy some new gym shoes – simple enough, right?
