Isn't it strange how some tastes or smells remind you of the days of old?

[pyonir]

While grocery shopping today i picked up a 12er of Bud Ice Light. I hadn't had it since college (i'm 26 now) so figured what the hell.

I took my first sip and it totally reminded me of my days drinking this stuff ALL THE TIME in college. Good stuff! :thumbsup:

Heh...I've been noticing a lot of this lately.

(If I remember any specific instances, I'll edit it into my post )

the smell from my electric razor reminds me of a kid when my dad would let me pretend to shave with his...even though i was only like 8 or something. LOL.

Smell is the sense most tied to memory

It's because it's the first to develop before you're born



HEY, HOW 'BOUT THAT?!?! AP BIOLOGY IS ACTUALLY PAYING OFF!!

I sucked at biology (or any science for that matter).

I can't for the life of me remember what specific things have been triggering memories for me - but recently, I've had lots of instant flashbacks to high school and even elementary school...

Edit: Some cleaner-type smell reminded me so much of the stuff they used to use at my elementary school...it's so weird, but very cool at the same time.

the smell of cheap fruity white cask wine (goon) reminds me of chuck.

Good times.

Don't worry, I only know that because we just covered that in class.

I'll probably get a 3 on the test and a 680 on the SATII.

I better start studying

Have you been watching LOTR?

The small of the salty air reminds me of a Gay Cruise. ^^

The smell of fresh PCB reminds me of my first Heathkit.
The smell of solder reminds me of my first Dynakit

 

[dighn]

makes me kind of sad when a smell brings back old feelings

Yeah, every now and then when I go outside to have a smoke at night it reminds me of my freshman year of high school when my brother and I would go outside at night after my parents went to bed to smoke before he moved away.

Hmmm... maybe I should at least look at my art history assignment now.... yeah, I think I'm going to do that.

I feel the same way. (?)

Probably mostly because I've been having a lot of "what the hell have I been doing lately?" thoughts...

The smell of Lilac makes me cry. Memories of first 'user' GF.

How many people here know you're a guy?

EDIT: my additional posts indicate that I have still not yet looked at my homework

My gender is ambiguous even in person. :lips:

sh!t man. You have no idea. I quit my job because of those feelings and haven't even started looking for a new one. Money is slowly running out too.

Heh...

I'm still in college, although feeling less and less motivation. I probably should go to class more...

But yeah, even so, I haven't exactly made a whole lot of friends here (haven't really "wanted" to), so it is kind of strange to say the least. Edit: Case in point - I've posted here 1000 times since one week ago...

I hope you do find something you enjoy though. :beer:
