CHUCK PRIDE, Photo and Caption by Elisa Fabian
Nine more years and it’s the 100-year anniversary for Chucks. Amazing, right? They first came out in 1917 and were originally worn by basketball players. Now it’s 2008 and they’re worn for casual wear.
It’s crazy how so much changes in so little time.
Like love, for instance, it used to be something so underrated and now it’s overrated. It used to be marriage and then a baby; now it’s the other way around. So many high-schoolers think they’re in love, but it is actually just lust. The words “I love you” have become trendy. They have no real, significant meaning. We say “I love you” to get things we want, for greed even. So, the next time you say “I love you,” make sure you really mean it.
Nowadays, Chucks have no laces.
You can have a baby without a marriage.
No strings attached.
Real love still reigns.
