Existentialism on prom night!

For an early Valentine's gift, Mr Boots surprised me with the Straylight Run CD, because enjoying EMO is my shameful secret.
The track 'Existentialism on Prom Night' has become my mental-patient-song (you all have them, don't lie) and I have it on repeat in my car.
Sadly, the sweetness of this song will be tainted forever because scads of high schools will use it as their prom song this year. It will become the couples-only dance, the coda of every summer party, the background track of every group of friends hanging out one last time before summer ends and college begins.

But now, I'm really nostalgic for my prom and my senior year in high school when everything seemed like the end of the world. Good Lord, we were so earnest!! I can remember the entire soundtrack of my senior year! And the boy, I liked, and how we met, and graduation, that last summer before college...

Does anyone else get pangs of nostalgia for high school? Who wants to wallow in memories with me?

I dont think I'd like to back to HS. I had some good times, but having better times now.
My prom was pretty good though, I would have to admit. It was at Crest Hollow then after we headed into the city for the night. The whole weekend was graduation party after party! (including mine).
I was on flagline but performing @ Hofstra was the highlight of every Oct.
We had a great time!
Other than that, nothing else! I keep in touch w/one friend who lives up in Mass.
Im in her wedding this Oct.
I do keep in touch via email with some people, but thats about it.
