demoed at socratica end-of-term showcase!
not to get sentimental on main but. if i had to describe socratica, it's this mysterious, maybe magical place of serendipity. every time i go to an event, i end up having a conversation or meeting someone who changes the course of my life in some small way. today was another one of those days.
i re-met so many ppl, met online mutuals in person for the first time, caught up with campus friends, talked to a bunch of strangers, and made new friends. seeing everyone's projects was also one of those "damn, i could be doing so much more with my life" moments - like not in a self-loathing way, but in a "damn, i'm so inspired and grateful people like this exist" way.
then. climbed trees, drank boba, ate overpriced chicken, fence hopped, and had group therapy/crashout with new/familiar faces. one of those nights where time doesn't exist and nobody wants to bring up going home and it somehow ends in a group hug. i genuinely didn't think life still had that kind of whimsy.
so yeah. there's just been a lot of joy and inspiration in my life lately. little spontaneous moments. life is so much bigger than the grind and it's completely worth living.
(i love everybody who ive met in the past three months)
and finally, thank you organizers (many of whom i call friends) for making this happen. the vibes have been incredible.
