Whenever I see a movie from my past like Breakfast Club or Sixteen Candles I am reminded of how quickly life is moving. Just yesterday I was a teenager with my whole life ahead of me and endless possibilities. I woke up today, 44 years old and realize that I will never be younger than right now. I actually get sad at the end of those great movies because I long for the carefree days and great 80s music. I really did have the last best childhood. Kids today will never understand how a lot of us grew up. I sound like I'm 80, I know. What a fantastic time it was to be a teenager. The Cure, REM, 10,000 Maniacs, Duran Duran. Techno at its finest! Music was our outlet and our wardrobe was crazy! Name brands didn't matter as long as it was bright or all dark. Great times. I'd go back.
