Wish upon a memory, wish upon a (paper)plane.
Nostalgia is a full body experience—and what’s more inviting to all five senses than reliving the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer? The talent give chase, running and playing and waiting for night so they can catch memories as if they are falling stars.Memory smells like twin sets of floral ribbons on our window seal, spiking hot chocolate with mint tea, mukbang at night, every night, since the night we moved in, flowers in pasta jars, iced water in pasta jars, tide pods and tea bags in pasta jars, chocolate in a metal jar, pastel highlighters on a terracotta dipped paddle, baby’s breath and identical lace socks, all caught in the whirlwind of girlhood.
