I hadn't really thought about the fact that a new decade was starting until all these damn twitter memes started up with "where were you" and "what have you done" and "photos of you".

I feel like if I graduated high school in 2009 this would be a fun meme because it would be like teen to adult stuff. But as an adult who has had a bit of a messy few years, turns out I don't really *want* to go back and look at things from 2009 or think about things from 2009 and the stuff that has happened in the past ten years, because some of it was great yeah, but there were a lot of shit storms in there. Well, two really big ones. I do not wish to revisit them.

In the words of Ford Prefect - time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so.

I remember a meme like these went around earlier this year as well, I think it was posting a picture from 2009 and this year. It drove me a bit mad, so I decided to do my own positive take on it in my bullet journal. I’ve been writing down things I have managed to do and achieved over these years. As a way to focus my brain on good things instead of crap. It’s been a nice way to break away from only seeing and remembering the bad and glum things.

It's mostly remarkable to me to realize how little attention I paid to the new decade back in 2009. That's probably because I graduated at year's end so the milestone for me was much more personal -- and also rather poor timing for various reasons.

It's remarkable to think it's been so long already.

LOL--okay, I have to admit I've been feeling nostalgic for 1999. Because that's when I was in high school still, and yeah, that's a properly long enough time ago to actually feel like it's worth remembering. To ME. Sorry you're having a rough time with the decade memes. Is there a way you can turn that off or mute it or something?

I'm not really interested in re-living the last 10 years (also felt pretty messy to me, but in a quicksand kind of way versus shit storms lol) but I've enjoyed seeing how much (or how little) people have changed with their appearances!
