Bittersweet
I always said that it’d be the best day when I leave this school

Camp
I’ve been going to a camp called Crow's Path since third grade.

Grapefruit Spindrift
There's a grapefruit Spindrift on the kitchen island where I’m sitting. The digital clock at the top of my Mac Book Air screen reads 9:16 p.m.
