Fonder Absence The Heart Makes Grow.


Continuing the nostalgia trend, take a quick look back at past times.
Have a jog through your memory.
And think about all the times you hated.

Yup, think about all those times you did something you regretted, or think about previous failures, or even think about long lost loves.

Done?
Now I'm betting that when you look back at those times, you're not feeling bad about it all. In fact, I'm betting you're sat there maybe even smiling right now.

Because even though at that moment in time, those events that happened made you think it was the end of the world, now, they just seem quite funny.

And do you know why that is?
It's because you were having fun.
....By living

It may not have seemed like it at the time, but for every second you experience a terrible, and strong emotion, you are having so much fun!

Because you lived through it. And well fucking done you.

So next time you leave the house, do something absolutely crazy that you know you're gonna regret.

Because to live through it, is awesome.

WARNING: NOSTALGIA CAN BE DANGEROUS.

A lot of people have said to me, that I need to make my blog a bit more personal.
Because otherwise it's not really a blog.

So I've done this.
It's the last 3 and a half years of my life. In picture form. With accompanying music tracks, that have had an effect on me at that certain time in my life.
And it's fucking long.
52 songs. 425 pictures.


It's not perfect, but that's because it's not done as a film. It's done as a memory. One big long, imperfect, messed up, choppy memory.
I've also missed bits out. (I dont seem to have one picture of when Markus came over!!)

The music quality is also a bit dodgy at times too. And I gave up on fitting the tracks together very early on.

However, it is personal.
