Here's To The Nights We Felt Alive

So here I am sitting in my bed listening to “Your Guardian Angel” by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. I haven’t listened to that song since leaving college in February for good reason. Listening to it right now is bringing tears to my eyes and giving me the chills. This song reminds me of everything that happened during my one year (well a tiny bit less than a year) of college. All the good (when it was good, it was really good), and all the bad (there was a lot of bad).

I am reminded of the loneliness I felt when I first got there.

I am reminded of all the people that I met in college, and how much I miss them all.

I am reminded of all the crazy things I used to do.

I am reminded of the classes that I swore I hated but they really weren’t that bad.

I am reminded of my dorm, and how messy it always was.

I am reminded of the tragic event which caused me to leave. I will never forget that day, no matter how hard I try to.

I am reminded of all the people that begged me to stay.

I miss it so much. And now I can’t stop crying.

“And I know I’ll be okay, though my skies are turning grey.”
