Nananana nanana nananana nana... So so what!

You know that feeling when you open a box of crayons and the smell of it reminds you of art classes in Grade School and the wars that raged between you and your sister over a coloring book and the work of art (your name in bright red) written on the pristine white walls of your house? Or when you smell a whiff of cologne (Victoria's Secret's Strawberries and Champagne) from someone else, and you remember that you used to wear that too during one of the dances (with your high school sweetheart. hahaha eew) in High School? :P I love that feeling :D It doesn't matter if you'd rather not reminisce that distinct memory attached to it... you'd still end up in fits of giggles after remembering right? I do. Haha! :P

The best thing about these kind of nostalgic attacks is that the trigger of the attack always comes unexpectedly. While flipping through dresses and tops on a rack, the store's background music will suddenly play THAT song and by the time the intro is done and the first lines are being sung, you already have a smile on your face :D You suddenly remember the silly tears you cried, the fake smiles you put on, the mean things you thought of at that time, the touching conversation going on at that distinct moment, and you go on singing along with the chorus. By the time you've made your purchase, the song's stuck in your head.

Anyway, the whole point of this is: At the end of the day (while the song still keeps playing in your head), you are reminded that the past is not so bad after all. You can even smile about it now :D Then you go home and do the laundry and forget about the whole ordeal. A week after, while vacuuming the carpet, the song plays on the shuffle playlist...

Nananana nanana nananana nana...

And now you know what'll happen next :D
