Nostalgic Memories from your Teenage Years

Have you ever taken the time to think back about the nostalgic memories from your teenage years?

My teenage years were fun to the core, and I feel good whenever I think about those days. Even though there was so much challenge and ugly moments, I still feel happy whenever I think about my teenage years. However, there are many things I had allowed to go just like that, which could have been great if they were saved for days like this. I had met a couple of great friends in the past and some of them are now in other countries. Would I be able to meet any of these people again? That sounds like a mirage.

Unfortunately, I can’t remember much of the things that happened when I was in the high school. This is really bad and now I see the reasons why most people save their great moments in time capsules. You may ask, why time capsules, and not uploading it online? Of course, my teenage era was without most of the technologies we have today. Clearly, Facebook, Instagram, Dropbox, and other technologies that allow people to upload files are still very young. Now you see the reason why time capsules are the major means of saving memories.

Nostalgic memories from your teenage years may be quite different from mine. However, if you belong in the same age group with me, the following might be true in your case.

Where are my lovely poems?

I have spent most of my day in different places, and mixed with different people. My teenage years were full of memories. I remember that I wrote a couple of poems when I was 14 and can’t even say anything about those poems again. This is a big knock on me. If I had known, I would have saved those lovely poems in my time capsules. Obviously, I didn’t have a time capsule then. Who can I blame? No one!

Assuming I have saved my lovely poems and that of my friends, it would have be a great joy for me to read what I and my friends have written in the past. It’s sad I did not save any of them, and I don’t have a way of bringing those memories back. Are you feeling the same way?

Did I lose my teenage voice?

How will I know? I have no record of my teenage voice. The only thing that I remember is that I use to sing. Sad enough, I didn’t record my teenage voice. Now that I feel concerned about my voice, I could have listened to my teenage voice and compare it with now, but that’s not possible. Of course, many things have changed, and nothing can be done since I did not save them.

Pictures

Fortunately, I have some of the pictures I took in my teenage years. Wow! I wasn’t plump when I was young. If not for the pictures I have, I won’t agree that I was slim. Now that I see my teenage pictures, I feel optimistic about getting a perfect shape.

Are these some of the nostalgic memories from your teenage years? I have many of them, but can’t remember everything at a time. Now that I see the importance of saving memories, I always make sure that my time capsules are always updated. Feel free to share your nostalgic memories with us.
