The Reason

by Amalia

I encountered this song (The Reason by Hoobastank) out of the sudden. I used to love it! I remember exactly when the first time I heard it! It was in the year of 2004 in Brisbane, Australia and I was still living in The Lodge, which was a student dormitory where I had so many beautiful memories. I was in the dining hall (either for breakfast, brunch, or dinner — I forgot) and this song was played. I immediately loved it! I asked my friend Jenny who sang this song but she didn’t know it. It turned out that this song was played in the radio over and over again so after few weeks, I got to know the name of the band.

When I heard this song again today, it reminded me of those beautiful memories I had in Brisbane with Jenny and Mayu. Miss them terribly!
