You know the lyrics, of the oh so famous and nostalgic Oasis song…Wonderwall. Whether you had the cassette tape (raises hand), or the CD or digital version (raises hand) today, you can’t help but feel a bit of nostalgia when listening.

The highlight reel
Ever get caught up in what other people are posting, sharing, snapping, and gramming? I know I have. You get sucked into the rabbit hole and all of a sudden you're wondering where the time went.

Remember When…
Remember when we used to watch cheesy teenage shows, record songs on cassette tapes, and hope our favorite song would come on the radio again? The days when teen angst would be wrapped up in lyrics we would play on repeat on our walkmans and discmans. Luckily for us we can relive those moments with Our ...
Going Back
Going back to where you used to be. Whether it's visiting a city you used to live or a neighborhood...it's like going back in time. Transporting yourself to a person you used to be. A place you used to know. A version of yourself you used to know. Memories that cling to you. Bitter sweet ...

I can't help it, it reminds me of my adventure. What I've realized over time, it's easier to collect memories in different shapes and forms (without the clutter). Pictures...I ...
Friendships that Last
There are so many types of friendships and relationships in our lives. The ones that are fleeting and are gone before they began, short stories, the ones that test us, and the ones that stay by us - through the good shit and bullshit. Each friendship makes an impact...and sometimes the shorter ones are even more ...
Name That Tune
Pam and I had a fun girls night this past Friday that included our own edition of "Name That Tune". Seriously, we were giggling for over an hour testing out songs from our youth to newer, popular songs. If you know me well, you know that I am a champ at this game. I think ...
