I just realized all the kids growing up with Spotify don’t have to spend money on specific music anymore, so they probably won’t have the memory of saving up money to buy their first CD and having it be something super cringy…like I think I saved up $15 for three weeks to buy the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack at Barnes & Noble when I was 9 and I was really proud of myself for that. Add your first CD you were way too proud of buying in the tags
I’ve been doing like a deep cleaning of my room and found a diary from high school and oh my god. I would go back and punch my 16 year old self if I could
also at one point I wrote about this crush I had on a friend of mine and it was basically like, “this crush is gonna make things awkward, and I don’t want that to happen, so I’m just gonna stop being friends with him” which 1. is such stupid teenage bs omfg and 2. looking back I don’t get hoe I thought that would work? well had class together every other day where we sat next to each other, lunch together every day, and the exact same group of friends. I didn’t end up doing that and we’re still great friends to this day but wtf @ 16 year old me fight me
