Aw it's always nice to see old friends. I haven't seen my internet roommate; Stephanie for way too long. I got to see her for only a few hours earlier today which is a shame. We chatted about many things, but one theme that I wasn't able to most of my currently college caught friends, stuck. The question was basically do you feel too old/too mature for Corvallis and generally people who are in college?
I had been feeling this great unspoken divide recently between those in school (even my close friends) and myself. It was as if some sort of strange switch had gone off in my brain where I was no longer on the same level as those in school. I feel like most of my peers at this point see many insights that I see as common knowledge and expected expectations as something that still needs to be clarified or are not expected as the norm. I'm so confused as to how this had happened. Have I simply had more experiences or have my experiences shaped me in a way such as I have a strict view of how things are typically done?
