American Graffiti

• Nostalgia is a sense of longing for some aspect of the past
• This song made me think of college-aged students driving in a convertible along the West coast.
• Many of my childhood memories took place on my preschool (Central Christian) playground or Maxwell Elementary's classrooms. Sounds I remember include a kindergarten teacher speaking slowly in Spanish, and a first grade teacher (Srta. Swilski) speaking in fast, Peruvian Spanish. A smell and texture I remember is that of the slimy ham we ate in preschool.
