I suppose some things change and others don't. Really deep thought, huh. Athens is awesome, still awesome. Just different. The city became a town now that I know what I'm doing and have a car. One of the mystical things about last year was that no one knew jack about where to go, or what to do. We were all blind and feeling our way one foot at a time. Hence there was never a grand scheme. "Plan, what for?" kind of mentality. That and the proximity. Everyone was right there in the dorms. This year, I don't know, it sort of feels like I'm older. If I want to hang with Matt, I call him and drive over there. I don't walk, and I don't have to ask for a ride. The thing of it is that I now have all of Athens accesible to me, so it loses some of it's mystic quality. Now if football would only start...

Actually, I really like having stayed on campus myself. This dorm room is the shiznit. Walkable to all my classes and to downtown, the meal plan (which I like), all the new freshmen girls around . Plus, the room has so much more space than last year. With the beds lofted so high, we seriously have twice the space for sitting, television, stereo, all of it.
