So I'm home.
It isn't what I had expected. People are being childish, and I don't know if it's me who's stuck in reverse, or them. It has been nice seeing people again though.. everyone pretty much looks the same. The city itself, however, has changed drastically since I last came. Or perhaps not drastically, but the changes are big enough to elicit a "What?!" everytime. Ah my little Roch... don't hurry so to grow up. Happy birthday Coco darling! You will be getting your gift.. even if it's a little late... :-D People can be so delusional. I'm talking about Deborah* who persists in loving and is living now with a man who will never love her the way she wants to be loved. I'm talking about Helga* who is so firmly convinced her and her schmoopsie poo share a transcendent sort of love that she looks down on anyone else who doesn't. Really, stop putting on your airs so--you're in college for crying out loud...you think you're such hot shit because you feel like you know true love? Hmm.. now that was me being childish, but damn, it felt good.
i have always noticed how people here in roch are a bit more immature and childish than people at home, and i dont think its their true nature, its just that its fun to be back home with friends you grew up with. that kind of atmosphere can lead to some regression, i would think. and as you found out in the end there, it can be pretty sweet.

Yeah, they always say you can't go home again. And I agree with you that its the little changes in the neighborhood that makes the big impact. One familiar store closing or one new one opening is enough to illicit a "Whu? When did THAT change?" It's worse when you go back to your old school, hehe.

You have a friend named Helga? Oh wait... I guess they're pseudonyms, aren't they. Oh well. -Stevo # posted by : 10:50 AM
