In High School I wrote a lot of poetry, and quite a few short stories. Most poetry about unrequited love and love in general. What would you expect from a hormonal teenage girl? I've been on a mission to find my lost writings. I want to relive those memories, and see if I've grown in my abilities and by how much.
As for the short stories, most were based on people in my life at that time. Some of which are still in my life, via social media and a select few are still actively part of my life today. I will be on an archaeological dig tonight to find lost artifacts of my past. I hope to find the stories most of all, they've been lost for many years, and were so enjoyed by my friends and family back then. We'll see what I can find, and see if it inspires me now.
I've longed to find my old scribblings from the past. I used to be on the journalism team. I've submitted short stories for contests that I never won. I've written poetry that pleased the teachers and caused ridicule by my fellow classmates. I'd give almost anything to have all of that back.
