nostalgia

The names of those who’ve walked away from us are the suspension of our time with them—a time which we can’t separate from ourselves, even if it belongs to a past self.

Importantly, 1989 is for all of us feeling youthful and holding onto that feeling of what it’s like to share your life with friends. 

Coming back feels different, and I can’t help but feel like I’m a visitor in a town that’s supposed to be home. The foods I used to eat now recall the past, and I revel in those memories. 

If summer no longer means rest and it no longer means life, then what? What is its gift?

To my friends, you are the most important and special thing I have in this life.

The point is that music really is amazing. Some see it (hear it?) as a tool for dancing, others for pure eargasms. I like music because I like to feel.

While I know none of these movies will offer the same “trending movie theater experience,” I think watching them again, or even for the first time ever, will still offer that same unique Barbie experience

In retrospect, the nostalgia of my sad songs playlist will always bring me back to that space under the loft, feeling hopeless and crying in the quiet after midnight. Since then, these sad songs have also given me the strength to change the course of my well-being.

Sharing this moment felt much more bittersweet, especially realizing how much we’ve grown individually and are all in different stages of our lives.
