This song soothed me, made me cry, made me smile, made me feel everything !! Especially when I was in middle school. No matter what phase in life I’ve been in, this song has found me. I still listen to it from time to time almost six years later.
It’s usually found in spotify playlists I meticulously crafted from 2018-2019, wedged comfortably between other tracks like Engine by Neutral Milk Hotel and New Flesh by the Current Joys. Oh how I miss this music ! I don’t miss most of middle school, but I wish I could hear a lot of this music for the first time again.

in 8th grade my friend megan and i would walk around in the suburbs for miles to each others houses and parks and 7/11 and we’d play these songs at full volume on our iphones. we couldn’t drive but we could pick flowers from peoples gardens and go to the park at night…we stayed within our little neighborhood in our small town but felt so free
today i listened to northern downpour by panic at the disco for the first time in years and i started crying at school! i never thought it would be like this again…that beautiful ass song brings me right back to who i am at my core. nostalgia usually gives me the ick but rn it’s sweet to hold on to. like my whole life is changing so fast but some things will always feel the same

1 of 2 albums I can think of at the top of my mind that I listened to in its entirety. This takes me back to that summer in 2013 when I was listening to this album non-stop along w some indie songs I discovered thru 8tracks (I don’t know if anyone else will know this site, it was a gem). Also it was the time of my life I was just getting to know freedom from being able to travel solo and/or w friends or just discovering life. Akin to a coming-of-age movie. 😅 I don’t know if I make sense.

the title says it all; i spent a lot of my time in grade school in an unrelenting state of self-pity and unspecified despair. i should've reached out ! but i was too humiliated and bedlocked to do anything about it. i've since learned that if you're struggling, just stop . . . haha, just kidding. reach out though ! forreal. love yourself, or whatever. i'm pretty okay with myself. i think growing up is becoming more and more okay with yourself.
thanks for reading this ramble, i appreciate you. comment one of your favorite memories of adolescence.
