Nostalgia

When this happens, I always think about living in South Carolina, the little blue house we lived in for several years, all through my teenage years. I miss it immensely; it was really the first place that was ever ‘ours’. I remember it had that huge, brick-red concrete porch with a roof over it, and so many days like this were spent in the swing with a book, watching it pour down; I’d only get up if I started to get wet too.

I can only hope that this can be taken literally, that they are porting the original Chrono Trigger to DS. Chrono Trigger was a pivotal piece of my youth. It was the first jRPG I ever played, along with the first RPG as well. It was the first video game that made me sit up until nearly 5 in the morning, in my mom’s boyfriend’s living room, playing his youngest son’s SNES.
