Vent/rant Spent half of my life with TwoSet, and didn't get a single chance to say goodbye in person.

Guys, I've followed TwoSet for basically half of my life, since 2018. They introduced me to classical music and helped me pick up an instrument and learn. They were my practice motivation and my entire sense of humour and personality. When they decided to take an indefinite break in 2024, believe me, as a hormonal teenager, I felt aches more severe than a breakup. They had helped me in dark times, and all their videos were gone. I searched all corners of the internet to find them. When they were reuploaded, I took an entire day to download all of them onto my device. When they came back with videos, I watched them all.

Being a broke teenager is hard, since my parents don't get my interests and are the typical asian parents who *told* me to go to a med school. So they never agreed to buy any TwoSet merch for me, and never took me to any concert. This time, especially, I told myself, "When I get money, I'll go to a TwoSet show." And now I can't. I literally can't. This has put me in a dark place. I tried searching for concert videos and everything, but it just made me sadder. Now, all I have left is to buy merch. Have a piece of the journey. But right now I don't have money, and I've always wanted the varsity jacket. But I'm planning to start a part-time job to earn that money. It's low-key not even a job; it's just doing some assignments for younger students. I can't get a proper job cuz I don't get time out of my studies. Till then, could ya'll not buy the varsity jacket? Cuz that's all that's left that will make me happy. I don't even know if they'll ever restock the merch.
