I don't miss dial-up internet, I just don't. I don't even like the sound because it's just digital screeches and it's a sound that makes me cringe a little upon hearing it. Because I remember the times when I'd be listening to music with headphones with volume high and then that fucking digital screech just blares into my ears.
I don't miss waiting 30 minutes to load a page. I don't miss a bit of it.
You see movies and TV shows romanticising middle/high school a lot, as though it's all about parties, friends, hanging out, and getting into relationships. It's not that. Just an endless barrage of busywork with the occasional holiday.
Meh, this one depends on where you lived. We had parties, lots of time with friends and hanging out, plus relationships...it wasn't until Grade 13 (which was a pre Uni course year) where we had so much homework, especially 3 uni level math course...just doing calculus for hours after school.
