Nostalgia
 
Is it something you have a lot of? If so, what period in your life is it you're nostalgic for? And if you don't ever feel nostalgic why not?

I only ask because at the moment I've been getting it a lot recently and tbh, I hate it. It's mainly for the clichéd age of 15-17 when the discovery of new music was this incredible journey, I was watching films that consistently blew me away. This is before cynicism kicked and was instantly in the side of "this will be shit" rather actually giving things a try. That mindset is one that took me a LONG time to get out of. Oh, and playstation was a massive thing. Jesus, I was hammering that computer at that age.
And yet I know there was a lot in that I period I wasn't happy about at all. So why am I consistently looking back on it like it was sunny all the time and things was just perfect? Guess that's what nostalgia is, right?

Also, I think it can't be understated the massive difference from before 9/11 to post 9/11. That moment is one of the defining moments where seemingly everything changed.
