| 1999 Nostalgia • Core Memories |

My friend gave this book when I was Sophomore I loved it.

I realized how ridiculous it is now to read but this was my EVERYTHING when I first read it. It made me so happy and I was fr cheering for a dog…

Why is a dog having a better love life than me… wtf.

I think I read this when I was getting into my smut phase… I really enjoyed it and it also made me so mad because I really REALLY wanted to see a baby.

You may fkin hate it BUT I LOOOOOVED IT!!! I just wanna say that I felt very relatable to the female lead - mainly because she had these ugly faces and her love would go unnoticed. She was the friend and was going to forever be the friend - I really vibed with that in high school.

Obviously it ended with them getting together (which is when it stopped being relatable) but I liked it a lot. It’s toxic if I try to read it now but it made me feel better about myself back then…

Ahahahaha - this was such a cute read and it made me fr believe I was gonna find a love like this. Let’s just say it played a HUGE part into my maladaptive dreaming

No I did not find a biker and I did not stand in front of his bike to prove myself. No I did not have any mans to give myself as present.

I enjoyed reading this… it couldn’t be me because I was a below average student

I should have not been watching this AT ALL as a child… I saw this on YouTube and I don’t know what the fk was happening half the time. I remember swimming, storms, and break ups….

I actually almost joined swimming because of this but decided against it… mainly because I doggy paddle. My body does not float….

This is probably why I love father-daughter stories so much. My dad was not the best father figure as well so reading these were definitely my solace

Also, this healed my soul after reading Usagi Drop…

I actually stopped reading this (prob around Ch 20 or so) BUT I REMEMBER READING THIS AND THINKING THAT I WAS GOING TO FIND SOMEONE WHO LIKED ME AS MY CHUBBY SELF. Reality is harsh y’all…

I just finished this today…

The chokehold this manga had on me was insane. I can’t believe it has gone on so long. I did stop reading it around Ch 100 or so - While doing this list, I realized I never finished it.

The ending was cute.

IN MY HEART, I know I’ve seen this - I just can’t remember anymore… I saw the title in my book and I was like… this looks so familiar.

I could prob reread it when I get the chance. If I do, I’ll update this again

Ok, I read some chapters and it was a bit confusing until I realized - I watched the anime. AND OMG IT UNLOCKED A HUUUUGE CORE MEMORY FOR ME I miss this!
