"a role model turned friend"

oh, i remember alex way back in the good old days of 2018, 2019, 2020. i was his avid follower and fan back then, and I always looked up to him. i used to see screenshots of his funny yet so brainy tweets on whatsapp that i downloaded twitter just to know who this guy is. when i did that, i always looked forward to his posts and he never disappoints. every tweet he drops was a banging tweet. i had up to 30 screenshots of his tweets in my old phone that i wish i still had. i was even there when he lost his account and tried coming back to x with diferrent names but x kept blocking him out. i've been following him like a role model since 2019 till now and i was so glad the day he followed me. now he is into web3 and i have admired his growth. he is one of the creators i look forward to meeting irl and maybe, learn how to create good contents like him.
