Little Things You Still Miss...?

I missed the times my family would all fly together and meet up at my grandmas house in Brisbane Australia having all 30+ of us together with all 15 or so of my cousins lying sardine style on the ground, this was a time before my family nagged me about marriage and girlfriends.

 

I miss a friend if mine, I practically thought I was in love with him at one point (which is ridiculous now). I just miss our odd friendship.

Also, I miss my friends I had when I was younger, before I moved. We were so close there was nothing left unsaid, and we were stupid goofy beyond belief. No one like that in my life right now :/

And I miss my step-sister and half-brother, we don't get to see each other as much anymore.

 

I miss having three month long summer vacations, roleplaying with my friends for like six hours and not giving a shit.

Then again, I guess I like having a job and living on my own.

 

I miss my childhood. I spent too much of it in hatred and running. Then all of a sudden in the course of a few months I go from a scared child to an emancipated adult... I just wish I could have spent more of it enjoying myself.

 

I miss waiting up for a special someone.

You sit there, patiently. Yet it feels like years before they show up, but when they do... you just instantly smile, because all that waiting was worth it when you see the happiness on their face at the mere glimpse of your presence.

I deeply miss it.

 

I miss my ex girlfriend. I miss cuddling with her and talking to her about anything and everything.

I miss family vacations. We haven't been on one since I was 12. I miss spending the weekends at my grandparents' house. I miss fishing with my grandpa. Hell, I just miss my grandpa....and this is going to make me cry :tears:

 

I miss my grandpa. The way he'd yell at my sister and I for riding our bikes on his lawn and getting into his garden. How he'd call me a jerk (it's a term of endearment in my family). Going for rides to count deer. The stories he used to tell, even though it was always the same ones over and over. That song he used to whistle. It's only been a couple years but I can barely remember it anymore. And so many other things. Wish I could see and talk to him one last time.

 

It's a really good idea and I like it! It's just been a rough day.

 

The days I spent laying in the grass, watching the clouds with my best friend.

Hooking up game link cables between my friends' and my gameboys, trading Pokemon or playing Four Swords at school. The days when video games were more about the fun rather than the graphics.

I mean, do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America, Australia, UK did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out.

I miss when times were simpler, before social media. Before the pressures of society. Back when my worst concern was beating Ganondorf on my copy of Wind Waker. Not worrying if I'd be alone, if I wouldn't be good enough, my friends, my schoolwork, my future, my job.

I miss my childhood.

 

I still have it! My baby. I'll play the occasional Mario Kart or Banjo Kazooie. :lol:

Windwaker was my childhood.

 

I love Yoshi's Story! I also played a lotttttt of Yoshi's Island as a kid. Those both games bring so many memories back.

Hehe, yep! Rainbow Road! Especially the trick when you'd drive off the edge in the beginning, and land about 3/4 of the track and beat everyone.

Seems like a lot of things in my childhood had to do with rainbows. Hm. :lol:

 

Awwww you just brought back so many good memories, I remember those days too. They were the freaking best. Ugh I this is soo nostalgic now (*hug*)

Rainbow Road.. It was like drugs wasnt it? :lol:

 

I was addicted to Yoshi's Island on the DS at one point, I never played it on N64.

We played so many games on the N64 though. Ocarina of Time, Mario, Smash Brothers, Banjo Kazooie!!! Then we upgraded to Windwaker, Majora's Mask.. So many amazing games lol. I haven't played games in awhile though :dry: Though I have kept up with all the Zelda games, somehow.
