Things you really miss.

I miss my weekends from between September 2011 - June 2012.

Finishing college at 12:30pm on a Friday, sitting around with my friends until 14:30pm in the 6th form common room, going downstairs from the common room and getting changed to play football on the astro at 15:00pm. Playing football no matter the weather. Finishing at 17:00pm, walking home, getting in about 17:30pm, having a shower, having dinner and heading out at 19:00pm, collecting my friends along the way and all arriving together at my other friends for 19:45pm. From there we'd play FIFA and Halo until midnight, watch two films until 04:00am on Saturday and go to sleep. I'd wake up around 11:00am on Saturday if City were at home, get home for midday and have a shower and be downstairs, dressed, fed and sat on Facebook by 13:00pm. Then me and my mum would drive to get my cousin from Cheadle and get to City for 14:00pm. We'd watch the game, drop my cousin off and get home for 6:00pm. From there I'd either go to my friend's again or spend the evening on FIFA and waiting for Match of the Day. I'd stay up on here until 04:00am on Sunday, go to bed, wake up and then do nothing until college rolled around again.

My weekends were great.

What happened to them?
 
I miss that feeling of invincibility that I had up to the age of about 16. I, really felt there was nothing I couldn't do if I put my mind to it, and that I'd just keep going and achieving things at the same rate forever. I think it all ended when I faced my first real rejection in life, from my first choice university, then I realised how easy it was to build up a barrier and stop yourself from thinking something is possible.

Now I'm at the back-end of university, 5 months left, really struggled through parts of my degree and can't find a job, or pass an interview, for love nor money. Things don't just fall at my feet like they used to, I have to go out and fight for them (and most of the time even that's not enough). Feels like, for the first time ever, I'm going to be in a position where I don't know what to do with my life... which is quite a scary thought to be honest.
 
I miss going out at 9 in the morning and playing football until it was too dark to see, going out on the lash every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday when I was an apprentice earning fuck all, not getting any kind of hangover from the above (this may have been purely down to being in a constant state of pissedness tho) eating what the fuck I wanted without putting an ounce on, Garry Flitcroft, my mums steak dinners, the ice cream van at school and Denise Van Outen on the big breakfast before school.

I think that pretty much covers it!
 
Me late mam's Sunday Dinners (and her and me dad, of course).

Being able to run for a bus or tram and not just let it go for the fear of dropping in a convulsive heap on the floor.
