just stumbled across my ratty old jean hoodie
I can't remember too much of it, but I remember loving this thing to death, and wearing it for years.kind of giving me a "back in the day blushu *///////*
think it's time for some remminissicing
I remember the sahe of the little woodsy area behind the hosing complexes, walking along the path, and that feeling of quiet and detachment for the suburbia that surrounded me,all those grassy back alleys and that soft cool labrynth of green and brick, all the secret ways to get onto the garage roofs and the veiws they granted you.i remember sneaking into the public pool at night to go skinny dipping, and how sacred it felt to swim naked in the dark
I remember that feeling you get when you run down a hill,and start hopping as you go, so it feels like you are flying,the feeling of coasting across the pool underwater, crawling on the bottom and the glory of launching yourself up for air.the amazing feeling of solitude of the path in winter, covered in snow and silence.I remember the long but worthwhile bike reide up to washington rock,and how amazingly hidden the world i grew up in looked there
I remember the train tracks,and spraypainting with steve,i remember running around the mall with Schmit,those long talks with Anthony on the bridge and passing out in front of the tv with Roe. I remember when going on an adventure was it's own reward, and a goal was really just a bonus.that feeliing of being a part of a family,in a world without a center
i think at some pont in these next few days I am going to go on an adventure of some sort
perhaps I'll trek out and spend a night at the beach.or a day at the mall.maybe i'll just go see a movie. I'd try and see if someone wanted to hang out and play games or watch stuff, but I can only think of one person to invite over here, and I don't feel right inviting a female over without Beth, even though nothing horrid could possibly happen
I have a craving for water park,I think those had to be some of my faveorite experiences ever,nothing can trump it. The smell of pool water, the warm wet concrete, the refreshing mist in the air,the feeling of your body cutting the water as you eject from a tube, and that explosion when you break the surface.swimming upstream on the lazy river like a salmon
that water themed jungle gym,sneaking out to hit up a grease spot at the board walk
a decent cheasesteak sound really fucking good right about now
I miss my early twenties a bit. not exactly the people or anything, but the mood
evryone was able to put their self conscious bullshit to the side and just enjoy themselves
being unproductive never felt so productive,no sense of competiton or inferiority,no real discrimination, just doing things together,sitting down and watching a few episodes of an anime,then the anticipation of next week, when you would continue where you left off
The world kind of sucks now that evrything is readily available.even knoladge seems less sacred these days. I remember when hunting down a forgein word was kind of like exploring a grave, and that feeling of triumph when you found out, or that feelingo f acomplishment when you were able to enrich someone else life with the answer to the question they had
I really pisses me off when people constantly pull that GOOGLE IT bullshit,like it's so fucking rude to ask someone to explain something,seems kind of stupid to me if people want attention to turn people away that they could hold an impact on
anyhow,yes, the feeling of soft worn denim on clean skin,and that clean old clothes smell
nostolgia old denim shirt
