When I sat down at work to start on a reserve for a jumper, the only album that came to mind to work to was A Study in Her's "Another Year in Philadelphia." As the first wisps of sound crept through my speakers on my laptop I could only reflect on where I came from and where I am at now. Philly will always hold my heart, 215 till I die. I may not be the biggest sports fan, but Philly teams are always such a wonderful ride to watch from the amazing wins to the astounding chokes (PS - Go Orange and Black!); however, the Philly that I left is not the Philly that is now. The places that I would go to play are different, as related by many of my friends that still occasionally make appearances. Many of my amazing friends have moved on to new places and I love the stories that they relate from their new adventures. I love the new places that I have gone, the awesome people that I have met and the new friends that I have made; they all mean the world to me and have helped shape me further, helped me grow as a person.
There are ruts that I have stayed in, others that I feel myself want to fall into, but I am just living life. Nostalgia for the halcyon days hangs heavy in my mind and heart, but I know that things have changed and always will be changing. The memories are what I will certainly always have, so I hope to keep making more and more every day of my life.
With that all said and done I wanted to leave a few songs off of ASiH's aforementioned album to help share the mood that I am in with my awesome friends; I love you all and miss you dearly. To my Philly friends: get ready for some getting down June 9th-15th. We gonna do it up PROPER!
