I don't know if I did the title right but basically, the message I wanna convey is how I feel every time I remember life during the 90's.
As I was watching Natalie Imbruglia's Torn (I got curious how she looked before compared to her glamorous look today as she's one of the judge of Australia's X-Factor), I felt a sudden surge of 1990's nostalgia. I suddenly remember the fashion, the trendy anime shows (Fushigi Yuugi! Yay!) and most of all, the songs that touched my life -- especially my high school life.
The song Torn was followed by Vanessa Carlton's Thousand Miles, then M2M's songs and now S Club 7. Name the 1990 songs, I've listened to it again.
I thought of documenting this feeling, although it's really hard to put in writing, because I want to remind myself someday that I never forgot the feeling when I was young. I wanted to remember how I related myself to the love songs I used to sang, especially when I used to see my crush when I was in high school. Or watch teenage movies and imagine I was one of them. Or rather imagine that I could dance or sing like Britney or Christina. I wanted to make sure that I'll never forget the urge I had to meet Hanson Brothers or the Moffats.
I wanted to remind myself that I was once young and silly, and I dreamt of being in a world different than mine.
Most importantly, I wanted to have this notes so when I grow old, I can show this to my granchildren and they will say, "Granny's cool, though she's vintage."
Grany's cool indeed,no doubt! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a mortal sin not to reminisce one's past,most especailly those significant,for it is inevitably part of who we are now. May it be silly..it's cool to remind how silly we once were.
Memories make life worth reminiscing..for it's the best we can do. We cannot alter time..but we can keep it fresh by reminiscing simple as clicking "refresh" on our computer screen. It's just there..ever existing.
