Catharisis I

I was with my best friend Jessika, whom I've known since I was in the third grade and we were listening to all of our favorite songs from our freshman year in high school in her room. That year was such a big deal to both of us because we ended up dating the same guy and he was the biggest loser ever. We both learned and grew from that experience and when we heard this song by Something Corporate, it brought back all the memories. Ironically, this guy texted me inviting me to a party that same night Jess and I had listened to this song. I hadn't talked to this kid in months, and out of the blue he invited me to some party. I remembered all the hurt he put me and my best friend through and of course denied his invite, but still I reminisced in all that we were. This song meant so much to me back then, and it still does. I used to listen to it constantly when he broke up with me and cried every time I heard it. When Jessika and I listened to it in her room this past weekend though, we didn't cry, but laughed at how young we were and how we thought we loved him. Even though this song brings back those memories, it now helps me to remember how strong of a person I am, and how I should live my life with no regrets, just learning experiences.
