How Song Reminds You of Something
Do you have those favorite old songs?
Today I opened my old phone only to find those old songs I liked to hear during junior and early months of senior high school. How amazing bumping into some memories when I heard some songs. Like a song reminds me of someone, another song reminds me of a place, and the other one reminds me of a happy memory.

Have you ever felt the same too?

Well, this is called "Classical Conditioning Learning Process", in which organism learns to associate two stimuli, such that one stimulus comes to elicit a response that originally was elicited only by the other stimulus. (Yeah, I have a Psychology class.)

I felt a warm heart, also butterflies in my stomach listening to this song. The weirdest part is that this old song reminds me of you (whoever you think you are haha). Those indescribeable feelings I felt when I listened to this song...

It's just another night
and I'm staring at the moon
I saw a shooting star and thought of you
I sang a lullaby by the waterside and knew
if you were here, I'd sing to you

You're on the other side as the skyline splits in two
I'm miles away from seeing you
I can see the stars from America
I wonder, do you see them too?

So open your eyes and see
the way our horizons meet
All of the lights will lead into the night with me

I know these scars will bleed
but both of our hearts believe
All of these stars will guide us home

Hi there.
I have a lot of stories to tell.
How have you been?

Can you see the stars over Amsterdam?
You're the song my heart is beating to

See you when I see you :)
