I've been a bad, bad girl.

This song epitomizes my rebellious teenage years. This song came out during my sophomore year, and every time I hear it, I return to some of the best (although most irresponsible) times of my life. I was young, beautiful, carefree, outgoing, and naive; I honestly have never been as happy as I was when I was 16. It reminds me of skipping school and drinking, sneaking out of the house and drinking, going to parties and drinking, etc. etc. In particular, I remember being at Julia's apartment (which she had when she was just 17, so obviously, that was the place to be). Anyway, surrounded by a dozen or so cohorts, we were feeling good, downing beers and sipping from a whiskey bottle, after smoking a fat, juicy blunt. We laid backwards, our heads dangling from the sofa, the two of us belting out this entire song at the top of our lungs. We didn't give a shit who was looking, how bad we probably sounded, or the fact that we should have been home studying (yeah right!). This song reminds me of how beautiful that moment was. Young, irresponsible, without a care in the world except having a good damn time.
