Writer's Love..."Before there was Love"

There was diapers, mushy food, Philippines, gifts that weren't money, half-day school days, times when grades didn't exist, subjects were different, language arts was the subsitute name for English, bowl cut haircuts, monochormatic sweat suits, VHS, light up shoes, tucking in your shirt was cool, wrapping your jacket arms around your waist was fresh, knock knock jokes instead of "that's what she said", calling eachother "gaylords" instead of ass?uckers, when and1 streetball, hot sauce ?igga, jerseys, headbands, wristbands worn not on our wrist, all-round spikey hair, or the little flick in the front, long straight hair hair split in the middle, dorihna jeans, stiff-grinding at dances, boners when girls gave guys hugs, "i heard so-and-so likes you", when you could ask a girl out without getting to know her first, late nights(10pm), dial-up connection, ONLY msn, when noone would put thier actual name as their display name, when we all had emails like "azndragon94, FlipBalla604, shortysofine, xox_angel_xoxo and so on and so forth, bikes and rollerblades instead of cars, unemployment, when we thought that drinking and drugs were a death sentence, ring pops, pop rocks, 5 cent candies from 7 eleven, slurpies, popularity, highschool, yan-yans, pocky, highschool, drama, bra's...Oh shoot, nevermind, that was after Love. My bad. - God is Love
