Rememories

Music brings so many memories back. There's so many songs that constantly remind me of stuff...sometimes things that make me so happy that I just have to tell someone and sometimes things that make me so sad that I cry as I'm driving alone in my car at night because the song is so powerful. But seriously, music is amazing...I dunno where I'd be without it. My current fascination is Jimmy Eat World and Blink 182. I love it.

But there's so many songs that will always remind me of certain people and certain events.

"Anything but Mine" will always remind me of Lindsey and this first semester at UGA and all the fun we've had so far. She's such a great friend...I'm so glad she lives across the hall from me. "Hear You Me" will remind me of Kyle because we used to be running buddies and one time we were listening to the song in his car and I made him sit in the parking lot so we could finish the song. And we sang at the top of our lungs....and I sounded terrible, but he didn't. Haha. "Sweetness" will forever remind me of Spring '05 when I was getting ready to graduate and being a senior and attending pool parties, cookouts, etc and just hanging out with my wonderful class who I do miss dearly. "Sweet Child of Mine" will always remind me of Taylor's house and playing Halo with all the guys. "Mr. Brightside" will forever remind me of NYC with Brittney, Lora, and Lyndsay and text messaging all the way up there and all the way back...I regret that decision. Terribly. "Collide" will forever remind me of Drew and going to his lakehouse this summer and hanging out with him all the time. "Ignition" will always remind me of Lora and our animal dances and staying up late with and all that kind of stuff. "She's My Kind of Rain" will always remind me of Lora and her mom on the way back from the mall. Haha. "Swing, Swing" will always remind me of Michael and going to Mexico Beach with Abby, Katie, and Erin. Every single Backstreet Boys and N*SYNC song will remind me of all of those middle school crushes...that seem so insignificant now that I look back on them. "Freek a Leak" will definitely remind me of Andrew and that summer when we were ridiculous...haha. We were obsessed with that song...it was like a running joke. "Bittersweet Symphony" will always remind me of A.J. because I used to listen to it while I was on the phone with him....and it always made me cry, but I still don't know why. "Away from the Sun" will always remind me of being broken up with...and how much it hurts....and how much it makes you happy to know you are single again. But, "Memory" will always remind me of that summer when I didn't know what I wanted...but you did...and then I did...and then it worked. Ahh. "Get it Faster" will always remind me of Jimmy...because that was his favorite Jimmy Eat World song. "Screaming Infidelities" will always remind me of Taylor Morgan because he gave me that CD and we listened to it all the time. "Hands Down" will remind me of Andrew because that was the concert we saw together and it was so awkward...it was my least favorite concert ever because everything was just weird. "21 Questions" will always remind me of Lora because we listened to that constantly...I mean...I knew all the words. "Strawberry Wine" will remind me of Shanna and Jessy because that's the first time I ever heard it....and I fell in love with that song. "Baby Cuz I'm a Thug" will forever remind me of my 9th grade PE class and using the machines down in the weight room and pretending like the brown electric chair of a machine was a car...and "thuggin' it out" to some rap music with the girls. "Crash" reminds me of terrible terrible memories. How much I hated listening to someone try to play the guitar over the phone to me. How lame almost everything you did was. How annoyed I became. "As Lovers Go" will always remind me of you and how that song was supposed to make everything so much easier...but it didn't. It'll remind me of late night phone conversations, becoming angry, becoming ecstatic, etc. Man...that was fun. "All For You" and "Change Your Mind" will always remind me of Michael because he told me to download them in like 9th grade....and those songs are amazing. "Cool" reminds me of A.J...but I don't even know why. It's not the lyrics, it's just that it was my favorite song over the summer and over the summer A.J. and I were so close. It was great. But I really miss that. "Bonus Mosh Pt. II" will forever remind me of Niki because that used to be the song that played on her journal and I loved it. "Let's Go" will definitely remind of rebellious summer escapades last summer and how much fun that was. "Let Me Let Go" will always remind me of Lacey in 8th grade right after the Dome game. That was such a long time ago. "This Kiss" reminds me of watching myself grow up...I know that sounds weird. But that is like the first song I actually remember hearing on the radio...because I used to never watch the radio. "An Honest Mistake" will always remind me of Trivia Night at W.K Cafe and hearing that song and thinking that I'd make you feel like you were an honest mistake. It also reminds me of Scotti, because she gave me that CD. "Breakaway" will always remind me of graduation along with "Here's to the Night" and "Last Song." Lastly, "Night Drive" will always hold a special place in my memory.

Like I said, songs make a lot of memories resurface. Some are painful...some are so funny...some are just so sweet, that I cannot even describe them.

I'm amazed that I just wasted an hour doing this. That's fabulous...since I have so much stuff to do, but I just don't feel like it.

I'm out for real this time.
