So I thought Songs of The Day would be fun. I did this a long time ago and I wanted to do this every week at one point... but I don't think I ever really did.
But anyway- this song used to make me sad as a kid thinking about the future and growing up... now it kind of makes me think of the past and how I never really grew up... so that's weird.
I think the scariest part of this song is in the beginning it mentions "Always thinking about we'll be when we turn 25." I'll be 27 next month... so that's super scary to think of... I thought I'd have something to show by now... like a movie that I wrote or starred in or something... ugh. That is really scary!
Anyway... so am I friends with the people I was friends with the first time I listened to this song and it made me sad... no... I mean it's easier to catch up with people now because of Facebook... but other than liking a post every once and a while and seeing how cute some people's kids are- I don't really know these people that I thought would always be an important part of my life anymore.
I guess that's sad... but at the same time- other stuff happens when you aren't just in touch with the same people you've always known... so there is always something to do or something fun. Life changes and things change... and it's just something you need to get used to I guess.
So... yeah. I guess this song isn't as sad as it was when I first heard it. I guess I can kind of know how to handle these things now and even though I thought "what? I'm older than 25- young Shannon would be disappointed in this." She probably really wouldn't be. I'm a pretty cool badass person and I admire myself.
Bye!
