Would you do anything to be 16 again? I’m not sure that I would. I definitely had one of the best summers of my life back then – young, single and spending time with my girl friends but then the first few months and last few months were pretty rubbish. What I do remember however was the soundtrack to my summer. Some of the songs were new then, some were a few of our old favourites. All I know is that when I hear them now I am automatically transported back to my 16 year old self that summer and all the fun we had. Mind you, my summer aged 17 was pretty awesome too and also had its own soundtrack!
Aged 16, music and friends seemed to be my life. Not yet being able to drink or do much, we spent most of our time round each others houses watching films or going to parties – typical life of a 16 year old, right?
Music played such a big part of my life that it seems crazy that I didn’t actually go to my first concert until I had just turned 21 – madness, I know! I liked so much back then and wanted to go and see so many people – my best friend and I made so many plans that never actually came into fruition!
Whilst I wouldn’t change my life now for the world, there are some things that I’d do now that I wanted to do back then – care even less what people think of me (I was still quite shy and lacking in confidence – it wasn’t until my pub job that I started coming out of my shell). I’d definitely go to more concerts – I am currently considering getting some Basement Jaxx tickets for The 02 and a few other artists too.
I’d perhaps even stop certain friendships from beginning and stop others from ending. But after all is said and done, I can only change back then what I can do now. Would you want to be 16 again?
I would't want to be 16 again, but i would love to have the freedom i had then just for a few hours.
Ugh no, I would never been 16 again! It was a pretty stressful time in my life and I much prefer being an adult.
