There's always something that brings you back

So tonight, I was going to a surprise birthday party for a girl whom I went to grade school with. I picked up my best friend and we were on our way. We got there, and she was like oh.. I didn't know you guys were coming. (the girl who invited us never even showed up...). So, in order to avoid awkward situations, we left. Another girl was there, and we couldn't just leave her.......... so she came with. Blah.

After driving around aimlessly to Target, Taco Bell, Mcdonalds.... we went to go drop her off so my bestie and I could just drive around and catch up. We decided to go to our "summer spot", which is a park nearby our houses.

I pulled up, and after taking one look up to the sky, BAM. I was right back to summer 2011. Our summer song was playing and I went right back. I looked up at the stars, and was almost in tears. All the memories started flowing back that I had forgetten about in these past six months. I never wanted nothing more (yes, that is a Kenny Chesney song that does have relative meaning to my life.) And then Paradise by Coldplay played. That song, it just has meaning to me. I don't even know why, but when I listen to it, I feel something. I stuck my head out of the sun roof as The World is Ours Tonight by Gloriana played. I felt so much tonight that I hadn't felt since summer.

It was time for me to be home, so we drove the path we always took to our summer spot. Literally memories were flying out everywhere. Everybody says how much they hate Nebraska, but this is my place. It may not be much, but you have to make the best of it. There's nowhere else I'd rather be.

Sincerely,
This would happen
