I don't think it is sad or embarrassing to miss the most carefree time of your life.. I worked a concert for the jazz band I used to be a member of and watching them just be kids in between/after playing stirred something within me. It's a precious, unique time that nobody ever seems to appreciate until it's long gone. I have very fond memories of those years and haven't been able to hang out with friends as often and consistently as I did then. I didn't have the freedom of being an adult yet but the world wasn't nearly as big either, so it didn't feel limiting. Sometimes people put this down as "peaking in high school".. I think peaking is nonlinear and different aspects of your life can be at their best at different times.. There's another thought to be had here but I don't have the words to finish it right now lol.. maybe at a later time
I hated college when I was there but I miss it so much everyday. I miss smiling at people in the hallway and doing homework. I think it’s good to reflect and appreciate things, even if you didn’t appreciate it in the moment. Having something to yearn about will push you to greater places.
recently i have been having a lot of dreams in relation to being in high school or college again. usually it’s an amalgamation of both together where people from both parts of my life show up. and it’s never at my old high school or college, but a better institution with better buildings. it’s been 6 years since i have been in a school environment 😂
I LOVE PHYSICAL MEDIA!! I love doing anything I can to have something in physical form in this age of things only being on your phone. Tickets for concerts and movies and rides, dvds, cds, vinyls, paperback books, I need all of it!!!
I think it is so silly that people that usually prefer black coffee hate on people who like really sweet coffee. The fact we have so many different kinds of coffee is lovely
