I miss the old days (being a kid in the 90s). Here's what I wrote. Is it interesting? What do you think?
The Way we were. Where did the time go?
Every once in a while, I like to think back on how things were like when I was younger.
I'm getting older and sometimes I hate it because I still want to hold on to some of my youth.
I grew up in the 90s, and things were just a bit different than they are now, not too much. I like to reminsice on days back in elementary school. Honestly, I think that was the last time I was truly happy. Everything was just so innocent and even key. I see kids at the school I'm working at now laughing, playing, enjoying their day and it makes me wish I was still living that way. Being an adult does suck sometimes.
When I was kid, I had less problems than I did now. Back then, my only worry was what I'll get for christmas and was I going to make it to the next grade.I miss them days when I could just be a kid and not having to deal with peer pressure to have sex, only because I'm grown and everybody else is doing it. I miss them days when my all my cousins wasn't out here having babies so young. The ones I used to play with growing up now got a family of their own. Things do change when puberty kicks in.
I look back on all the people we've lost over the years. The holidays don't even feel the same since a few relatives has died. My aunt and my grandmother is gone and that kind of took the spark out of the holidays. Right now, our family feels kind of empty and we have a very few members, in laws and a bunch of kids.
But I think about how I happy and outgoing I was and how life was so much better for me. I miss the events, the music, the movies, the TV shows. I miss them old summer vacations, those thanksgiving and christmas eve nights. My sister done grew up and is living her own life now, but I liked it better when we were younger and pretty close (that was my little buddy). I miss the times when me & my father were close (before the fallouts), I miss being upstairs in my room listening to cassette tapes and jamming off the radio (B96 used to be the ish), and playing video games.
But time has passed, and I feel sad because those times will never be here again. Everybody done moved on, and life had just gotten bad after 6th grade. My 7th grade year was when everything started to go downhill and it turned me into the person I am now, black & blue.
I just liked how things were like before middle school.
