I remember talking to a friend about how we were going to make a webcomic (we never did) and how I was laughing my head off as we plotted because you know oranges (inside joke ok)
I remember fighting about if cats or dogs were better in an insta chat with some of the coolest peeps (shout out to y'all!)
I remember being talked about on another person's blog for the first time and thinking I was famous
I remember really starting to like blogging
I remember learning that some foods I ate all the time weren't actually eaten by most of my friends and that they (the foods) were Egyptian
I remember that one month I stayed at my grandparents place over the summer and how I really just used pinterest like every second of the day

I remember getting my phone and immediately texting my mom in all caps
I remember getting angry at that same best friends, friend when she accused me of stealing her friend
I remember one of my first school friends moving away and feeling devastated and also just kind of confused cause I didn't understand what was going on
I remember two of my friends saying they liked each other and had then started dating BUT LIKE DIDN'T TELL ME

I remember actually volunteering for a improve exercise in theatre and feelings so proud of myself because I'm not that great at improve
I remember when I got my old kindle which was my first electronic. I was crazy happy and I remember possibly just touching the screen which was probably so weird but I was just so happy

I remember when I absolutely hated reading and only did it when my parents forced me too
I remember when I first learned how to swing and I was with some people I didn't know that well at a park and I was struggling so they told me like the secret and it probably blew my mind

I remember each passing year and how they seem to get shorter and shorter
I remember when I was absolutely obsessed with the Pokemon card game and I would even collect cards until my dad got bored and we moved on to Magic

WOAH I really love this poem, Nabila! It's so creative, but so nostalgic. I love delving into my memories and remembering all the things that used to be...it can be super sentimental <3 I loved this post!
ReplyDeleteAwwwww yay I'm so happy you like it!! :) :) :) :)
Deletemmmm, this is really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteand lol, I think we all remember our first Hamilton listen :)
Love the format of this- such a great idea!
Aww thanks Elissa! The first hamilton listen is pretty important haha. :)
DeleteOkay. It's been a LOOONG time since I've commented and I'm honestly so sorry! I'm trying to catch up.
ReplyDeleteMan, these are all very vivid memories. Hopefully your friends don't mind if you write some of these up xD If they read your blog. I think you mentioned before that they do.
Also, friend drama is the worst. I still remember when I had my first friendship breakup. Still bothers me to this day. Never knew why she abandoned me and my male friend.
It's totally cool!
DeleteHmmmmmmm yeah I should have probably asked them haha. I think only one of my friends actually reads my blog though. Everyone knows about it but they're probably to lazy haha.
Yeah no friend drama is just ahhhhhhhhhhh like whyyyyyyyy???
This is such a wonderful writing idea. I might use this in my journal! (I love the classic I remember when two of my friends started dating. That is always a funny story.)
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Vanessa! You totally should! Yeah haha.
Deletethat was super cool! I have so many memories from when I was like, 5 or 6 and most of them are very random.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ali! Haha same. :)
