So the past couple days, I noticed that #rememberwhen was a trending topic on Twitter. I remember writing a poem in 6th grade called Remember When, so I decided to share it with everyone. Let me know what you think of it. :) Remember that I wrote this in 6th grade, so sorry if it sucks. Haha.

Remember When

When you were always happy.

When you had no idea what was going on and loved it.

When Santa Claus, The Tooth Fairy, and The Easter Bunny were real.

When your most important decision was to either go on the monkey bars or play Tag during recess.

When no one cared what you wore or what you looked like.

When everything was perfect.

When your only drama was when your best friend stole your oreos during lunch.

When the worst thing you could get from boys were cooties.

When Mommy and Daddy were your heroes.

When you wanted to be exactly like them.

When they fixed your every single problem.

When getting high meant on the swings at the playground.

When kissing a boo boo made all the pain go away.

When your worst enemies were the doctors and dentists.

When race issues were about who ran the fastest.

When getting married meant you and the person you liked swung at the same speed on the swings.

When war was just a simple card game.

When school was easy and fun.

When the only fake people you knew were Barbie, Ken, and GI Joe.

When the only way your friends could dissappear was in a game of Hide and Seek.

When life was carefree and simple.

Remember when all you wanted to do was just grow up?

Welll now that you're all grown up, the thing you want most is to be a little kid again.

Do you remember when?

If you have a Twitter, wish @thedanyoung a Happy Birthday or write it on This Providence's Buzznet. 

I'm really happy right now. I had a lazy weekend and I'm perfectly fine with that. I didn't have any homework. I found the charger to my camera so I can take pictures. I just ordered lots of GK Shirts. Yay sales! I can land a flip on my trampoline. ANDDDD. The AP Tour changed their Pittsburgh date from September 24th to November 15th. My mom wouldn't let me go on the 24th because of the G-20 Summit. If you don't know what that is, it's where 20 leaders of the world's 20 most important economies come to Pittsburgh to talk about economic/other problems with the president. There's going to be a bunch of protesters, policemen, and probably a riot down there. My history teacher showed me a video of a riot in Seattle a couple years ago, and it was just complete madness. There were policemen beating people, tear gas, people running everywhere. I think it took like 36 overs to stop the riot. Woww. Maybe it's just me, but I think that it would be an interesting experience to actually see what downtown would be like. So yeah, I get to go. I'm so excited.

How was everyone's weekend? (:
