Nostalgic
My parents recently moved out of my second childhood home - and into their very own McMansion. I think that I've gone over my thoughts of their McMansion before. They now refused to store any of my childhood memories. So over Thanksgiving break I went through all of my old stuff and packed it away to have my mom send to me. Send away she did. I opened up one of the boxes that I got and it was kind of crazy. I hadn't gone though any of the stuff she had send me other than sorting through it as keep or toss. It was a box with my high school diploma, senior year book, and newspaper clippings of stuff I did while in high school. It was crazy nostalgic. Crazy.
It seems like high school was a very very long time ago. I've done so many things since graduation. Looking at the old pictures of me and my friends was really strange too. I remember doing things but not every moment. I forgot a lot of the stuff - it was interesting to be reminded of it.
So many things have changed since May of 2001. Six/Seven years later - I've graduated university, I've had a few jobs, I've gone through ups and downs. I've gained and lost friends, I've dated and dumped guys. I've learned a lot and gone through a lot. I no longer depend on my parents financially or physically really. I still talk to them - but they act more like friends and confidants than parents anymore.
I have my own life, some friends are the same some new ones are in my life, my interests have definiately expanded, I don't read nearly as much as I used to and I've learned a whole hell of a lot of things.
I would encourage all of you to go back through your senior high school yearbook a be a little nostalgic this christmas. It's kind of interesting to see how life has changed since that earmark in life.
