Well, it's been quite a while since my last post, so here goes.
Summer has been exceptionally boring. Just work and sitting at home doing stuff. I did expand my movie and music interest this summer with large investments going to the area of CDs and DVDs. I am looking forward to going back to Tech. The thought that I will be reunited with the place that I belong in 9 days excites me. I don't think that Gwinnett ever had anything to offer me. It got me on my feet and a kick in the ass to the real world where I think I belong. All the people that I called friends, but were more of acquantences no longer took precedence. I have found these people at GT that I thoroughly enjoy spending time with and prefer them over people I went to high school with any day.
To be honest, this summer has made me come to several realizations. All my "friends" from high school were just fillers. I have no affection towards them as friends any more. Sure there are people from high school that I hang out with and what not at GT. I consider them different in the fact that we experience the GT way and in my opinion are real friends now than what was high school.
The greatest thing that this school year offers me is the opportunity to never go home again. From this point forward, my summers will be occupied with either internships or summer school. I will never have to return home again for a permanent endeavor. I hated the fact that I still had to come home this summer even though everything was different from when I left it. From now on, I will remember those people that at least made high school bareable. However, I now have friends that I want to spend time with just to have fun rather than pass time. Going to concerts at the Masquerade and Tabernacle, Wednesday movie nights, Moes Thursdays, etc. All of these things will be more fulfilling than anything I could have ever done with people from the Ville.
Peace, Love, Empathy,
Rob
