Then I think your life is pretty good. You look back and go, that was, it meant so much to me, though. You know, and I think about that now with my daughters. You know, they tell me stuff that's going on in school and stuff. And to me, I'm like, you won't even see these kids. This will mean nothing to you. These kids, maybe you'll be friends with them for life. I hope. That'd be great.

Four years is like a joke to me.
