Today I rewinded back a few years to circa 2001, when I was concerned with what uni I was going to get into and whether I’d finish my A-level art coursework on time. Perhaps because I was running doing very 2001-esque things today on a grey Saturday; going to Paperchase for art supplies, picking up something from the Chinese bakery, listening to the same music I listened to pre-uni, eating at a cafe that I hadn’t been to in years. Similarly, my outfit reflected those sixth-form days when I was stuck on knee-high socks even in the coldest of winters, had a plaid obsession, ONLY wore flat shoes and of course, layered to my heart’s content much to my art classmates’ curiosity who wondered if I could wear a different outfit everyday to school. It’s not that I don’t do or wear any of the things above anymore….but all of it on one day equals total re-immersion into my 2001.
A bit of 2001-music chunk: was I the only one who was quite into the short-lived band Haven?
