Comedian Aidy Bryant Talks About Going Back to the Simpler Times

Remember when your life wasn't consumed with fawning over curated Instagram posts and commenting on upsetting Facebook news? Let's all let out a collective sigh.

There's one person in particular who would surely like to go back to slower days: actress and Saturday Night Live cast member Aidy Bryant. On Knock Knock, Rachel Antonoff's new series from POPSUGAR and Watchable, actress Bryant opens up her childhood journal and shares an adorable entry from a beach vacation she took as a kid. After reading from the pages about collecting shells and peeing in a porta-potty, Bryant comes to a realization: "I've been holding onto [this journal] because it really is so simple, and I wish I could go back to the times when this was enough," she shares. "Just this as an offering was enough to spend my time."

All young Aidy needed was the ocean breeze and a few seashells.
