I went home this last weekend for a friends farewell. Its weird because the more time I spend up here the sharper the contrast between my hometown and my collegetown becomes. I'm starting to think of Monroe as more of a podunk town than I ever have. Which I know that it is, but deep down I've never really seen it as such.
Another interesting thing I thought about was how much the enviroment we live in affects our memories. Driving around in Sevier county this last time I was there, I couldn't help but notice all the changes. New buildings going up everywhere, they put a new street sign in the boonies along Brooklyn road. Stuff like that. I guess I was surprised at how annoyed I was about it too. I don't like coming back to somewhere and having it be different.
