Here.....you can be anything......
so, here i sit -- making eric a CD for his week in Germany without me. i'm mostly putting cheezy songs we like or classic rock that he likes. i decided to put in Jimmy Eat World's "Clarity" - a pre-popularity/MTV cd and then... i decided that i wanna cry. instantly i feel like i'm sitting in my jeep. i feel like Nichol is sitting here with me. i feel like i just got my tongue pierce. i feel like i'm going to Haunt for the first time. i feel like a senior in high school.
its like this cd is directly related to all these memories, to that time in my life. it's weird. on the one hand it makes me so happy that i had those experiences and that i can remember them and that i shared that time with the people that i did, but then ...on the other hand it makes me sad that that time is over and that those people aren't as much a part of my life as they once were.
time flies by so fast and you never notice it until you stop and reflect.
everyone has heard that your life flashes before your eyes when you are confronted with death - i believe that it is the highlights of your life, the parts that take you to a happier place so you don't think about the impending doom. in my final moments, when my life flashes before me, i know that that part of my life will def. flash before me, like a movie of some of my best memories with some of the best people i've ever met.
Nothing that makes sense ever works out...
