Triggers of nostalgia 

It's 08:00 am and I'm rudely woken up by my loud alarm. It takes me approximately five minutes to be fully conscious and alert. Suddenly there's a strong invading smell of burnt toast my roommate was making and it gave me nostalgia of the mischief I had been in as a child. Back in 2012, 3rd grade, before we had a toast making machine my grandma would use the pan to make toast. One fateful day I tried making one, without anyone's knowledge of course and I almost burned the whole house down and my grandma forced me to eat the coal looking like toast. Immediately after that vivid memory triggered by burnt toast my roommate made, I could weirdly taste the burned toast and it felt as if it was being absorbed by my clothes as well. Good thing I hadn't taken a shower.
