These days, everything feels like a chore. The hobbies that used to bring joy now feel like something I should do to “take care of myself.” Even relaxing feels like a task that needs to be optimized. The energy it takes to plan a fun night out? Forget it. Half the time, I’d rather stay home because the world just feels exhausting now. I’m a xennial (or whatever they're calling us), and honestly, I’m over it.
