I miss the 90s.
I miss hanging out with my friends and being v. young and being the centre of attention and knowing everybody and having everybody know me, and caring enough to do both.
And doing truly creative things and getting accolades for it.
I miss the days when Juliette Lewis was everywhere being her quirky self
And Johnny Depp didn't have lines on his face
and Sean Penn was just Madonna's crazy husband and the not the ultra serious, almost smug, actor activist he is now.
When my best friends were just a local call away, or a bed (on the third floor of a rickety building) away, or a hostel (separated by wild trees) away.
And when all we had to worry about were grades, or coming first in an inter city event, or getting a mural done, or winning an election, or having the right outfit for a night out, or even getting perm for that night out.
And then I remember that the boy was an unheard thought, and random unknown bangla boy getting high and partying with his friends in the 90s, and suddenly I am not missing things too badly.

I don't think I will ever miss the 90's. I had a not-so-great school life :)
I miss the 90s! I do. Why doesn't life have a rewind button?
I feel that way about the late 80s because I had a not-so-great school life then.
D - oh, that would be nice but I then maybe that would stop us from ever truly enjoying the present, eh? :)
