<em>Di Da Di Da, the melody plays on, of the psychedelic sound of yesteryear.</em></span></em></span></p>
<p><em>It&#8217;s been raining on and off the whole day, gloomy clouds and blue skies alternate in the space up above. Sitting by the window, the droplets of rain caught my eyes. Every single one of them seemed to be the same yet so different, forming dots that dazzled under the rays of the occasional sunshine.</em></p>
<p><em>As I was mesmerized by the psychedelic dots, a song started to loop in my mind. It&#8217;s not particularly special, yet seemed so fitting on such a day. The melody brought me back to those innocent years of youth, when everything was much simpler and free of worries. For a minute I lost track of time and space, I seemed to be back in those days, feeling the droplets of rain falling on me once more, round and round I twirled in the rain like I used to, into that golden year that seemed so faraway.</em></p>

<p>A song has been playing in my mind for days. It is a song that reminds me of my adolescence years. How I wish I could turn back time, back to the time when everything was still simple as black and white. It was a much simpler time, when hardship of the days were homeworks and exams; when serious business meant fueling between friends; when the true ugliness of the world had not been dragged into the picture.</p>
<p>Tapping with the melodies, for a minute I thought I was in those naive years again. But it was just a memory lapse. I&#8217;m still here in my living room, listening to the song, over and over again.</p>
