Literally my title reflects that I have not written in ,well, forever, and the fact that that song is my ever so depressing grad song.
ugh, I wanted the littlest hobo theme song, or great big sea, walking on the moon, but somehow my excellent taste in music was KICKED OUT OF LIFE
Anyway, I am graduating in a few days, woo!
I actually can't believe it, it's actually nuts, prom is tuesday, and grad is thrusday... geez
So as I sit here whitening my teeth, I think about my future,
what it will be like, and what in the world I will be doing in even a few short years.
I guess Boston kinda got it right
"There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it."
but at the same time...
HOW DEPRESSING IS THAT!
Honestly, I will be bawling my eyes out thinking that I will never do what I really want to do in life. What that is at this point however is unknown, I was thinking princess.. or rockstar... but I decided a family life would be much more rewarding somewhere along the way.
Imagine this
Graduation night, you are sitting there, and you look just like every single one of the people sitting waiting to graduate.
You look around and notice this and think, "who will be successful? who won't be, and will their current popularity in high school make ANY difference in the future. More than likely the answer to that is no. The most popular girl in school could end up falling in love with the nerd of the class in 5-10 years or so, time changes people, in the way they look, and how they are as a person.
"Well I get so lonely when I am without you
But in my mind, deep in my mind,
I can't forget about you
Good times, and faces that remind me
I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me
You're comin' back to find me"
That is what Boston could mean here. In the future, you will remember certain things, and certain events about people, but it doesn't mean that you will look at them the same way, you could perceive them in a completely different light.
The more I think about this grad song, I see it as a sad song, but I also see it as a moving on song, a future song that talks about how the people and things will be "deep in our minds" but won't totally effect who we will become as people in the future.
To my grad class, think about this song ( no matter how much you hate it or love it ) and know that it is just a song, and in our future we may not even remember what our grad song ever was. .
That is all,
