Time Travel

Not really. I just looked back on my life and all the changes I have gone through and how we can essentially trace everything we are back to kindergarten. Really because thats when you were your true self with no inner monolouge running through your head at everywaking moment. I think we spend the rest of our life trying to get back that same sense of innocence and a mind clear of everything but jello and the monkey bars. I mean take my kindergarten experience for example: I tried to be friends with absolutely everyone, I was one of the few boys that never believed that girls obtained the ever so gross cooties, I played the drums on everything, I played every sport imaginable for a 4 year old in kindergarten, I drew pictures ALL the time/ invented numerous strange games (which I mean I doodle alot now, but I mean it more in the way that I was creative), I loved talking and using words that I wasn't quite sure if I knew the right meaning to, I would listen (quite well for a 4 year old) and offer some random advice, I loved being the center of attention mainly for my bad jokes (which infact were good for those days...the reason they are bad is they are the same jokes I tell today, I just wasn't yet as quick with the puns). As I sit here right now I take a look at where I stand: Try to make everyone happy if it is at all possible, I definately don't think girls have cooties (though some do, but we just stay away from them now don't we boys...well I guess some boys don't stay away from otherwise they would have never gained said cooties in the first place), I have gone through many stages of music but I love it all the way every time (it has evolved from smashmouth and wigfield to enrique englasis and blink 182 to atmosphere and sage francis and the dorian three and visionaries to my chemical romance and brand new and blink 182 and the spill canvas), I now play baseball, basketball, football, ultamite frizbee, golf, volleyball, soccer, squash and work half at a climbing wall half at a gym, I doodle little comics that I may have published in the sheaf if I so desire and write songs/ poetry/ scripts in and out of class all the time, I am loud and talkative still using big words out of context (which is bad seeing as I have a degree in english), I listen pretty darn good when its the important stuff (which means big things and little things alike) and offer up my random off the wall where did that come from advice all the time, I still love being in the middle of things and as I pointed out I try that with my lame ass humor that gets more loud groans and "did he just say that" than full out laughs unless I am talking with some certian people. All in all I would say minus the facial and body hair, the wrist bands and my ability to drive I am the exact same ruffian hell raiser I was in Kindergarten....and Ain't nothing wrong with that!
