How much do you miss your childhood and which parts do you miss?

[Rusty]

I've done a lot of growing up recently and as I've done so I've noticed a lot that certain things that I enjoyed as a child no longer seem appealing, and that makes me sad. The prime example would be Blockland itself (although it is the same with all the video games from my childhood). I miss waking up in the Christmas holidays and booting up my computer, wrapping up warm in a blanket and then scanning the server list for something even as simple as a deathmatch or a City RP. Simple things that would keep me entertained for hours. I miss sharing that excitement with the friends I made on the game whilst playing over Skype and I suppose what I'm trying to say is I miss that feeling of nostalgia.

Nostalgia is a funny thing really, a love for the past that can never be relived. Now I might sound bad saying that the thing I miss most from my childhood was Blockland in the winter but with all of the fond memories of the events and of the creations I'm sure some of you can look back and think the same.

Some might suggest that I should try to have a similar approach to playing that I had back in the day but it will never be the same, and I suppose that is what I miss the most about my childhood; the innocence, the creativity and the excitement of being a child. Something that has been removed whilst I have been growing up and I find this very sad to see.

Tldr; I miss my childhood innocence, creativity and excitement.

I miss waking up on a Christmas morning, being excited, tearing up my presents hoping I got what I asked Santa for. Of course it doesn't feel the same anymore, the childhood magic is all gone now and I'll never experience the feelings I got as a kid during the holidays.

I miss friends being more of a part of your life. I used to have friends that I would see on a daily basis, and were there for you when you needed them.

Now, my friends have become distanced from each other, I rarely get texts from them now.

I feel ya, for me instead of wrapping up in a blanket on a winter morning it was every single morning lol.

But in all honesty, I think adulthood is coming on wayy too fast for me. I'm only 16 in a few months and already feel all the responsibilities, and everything that was previously exciting is now just... meh.
for forgets sake, even Steam and any other videogame for me isn't enjoyable anymore (except TPP and BF4). And along with this adulthood I've also gotten depersonalized from doing the marjunuajuajua which doesn't help it at all :c (the deperson stuff, majrujn's always good for ye). Feels like I'm dreaming 24/7

speaking of which, I'm off to vacation back to good ol' Maine (blogland forum thread circa 2012), and hope that it still feels the same way it did when I was a young kiddo.
