I will take you back to last week...
My friend Natalie and I were talking about how wish we could be six-year-olds again. Unfortunately, I doubt that will happen.
I will take you back to yesterday...
i came to school wearing my new sneakers. Natalie mentioned that she had the same shoes, and said that we should wear them on the same day. I decided to take it to the extreme; I said we should dress the same, like twins! You know how people dress their six-year-old twins the same? See! We are six! Well, we're six at heart, anyway. We had big bows in our ponytails, and people kept giving us funny looks all through the day. But we are six, so we didn't care! HA!
You may be wondering why we wish to be six. I will tell you that there is very good reasoning behind this claim: when you are six, you have no worries (akunamatata) and no work to do. When you are six the world is so much bigger, and there is nothing to be bothered by.
Oh, the days of kindergarten, and playing in the sandbox. When I was six, I wanted to be thirteen. Now that I'm thirteen, I want to be six. It just goes to show: We always want what we can't have.

So true. We do always want what we can't have. I remember when I was little, I thought I'd be awesome and glamourous when I was fourteen.
ReplyDeleteI certainly am awesome, but what happened to glamourous?
What happened?

Yes Elle, you are quite awesome. Unfortunately, I have never really noticed the glamourous part.
