Listening to the newest tracks from Dashboard Confessional right now. It's been a long and stressful three weeks. It's nice treat that no matter how stressed you are, no matter how much you change or how much your life has taken a turn for the worse, the band still sounds exactly the same.
It might not be a good thing for the band (in terms of progression), but I like the comforting feeling that some things don't change much.
Tomorrow, I'm going on a walk downtown. A few years ago, the excitement from downtown would have been uncontainable. Just three years ago actually, I was getting to know the downtown Queen Street area. Now, the city seems old to me. It's lost most of its charm-probably from visits that are too frequent. The stores seem style-less and too corporate compared to the "cool" it was for me just three years ago. It's strange how things change so fast. How I'm a different person then and now. How I've met so many different people, gone to university and had a million other new experiences.
It's dawning on me now that 18 still isn't that old and that I have a whole lifetime to become many other persons. I wonder what I'll be like at 36, in another 18 years. Hopefully married and at the top of my career with a child on the way.
I'm listening to Dashboard Confessional's "Vindicated", one of his classics, and I have a sudden urge to see the first Spiderman movie again. I want to remember how old I was then, and what my life was like. I suppose I was in middle school...
To the readers: What are a few of your comfort things?
