    I remember buying a CD and feeling disappointed cause they didn't have the lyrics in the leaflet.. So I had to play the bloody song again and again to learn them

    I remember blown up furniture that I convinced myself I needed and that it was super comfy though they weren't

    I remember butterfly clips I used to wear in my hair.. The black tark pants every girl in Iceland had to own and finally, the Disel jeans we matched with our super cool Buffalo shoes.

    I remember making freestyle dances to almost all of the songs The Spice Girls released and putting on a show in my school.

    I remember writing silly notes to my friends in class and passing them on.. And all the games we made up cause we were bored..

    Oh I need to ring some of my old friends right now and get drunk with them.. Now I'm feeling Nostalgic lol

    Scratching a vinyl record and listening to it skip and repeat over and over again. That sucked when it was a song you liked.
    Tightening cassette tapes with a pencil or pen when they unwound.
