Some things never change.. for everything else...

Logged on to my computer at home for the first time since I arrived for winter break and decided it was time for some good old blast to the past. Check it out.

It's scary every time ):

This past week has made me realize that just as the world of SKI(32) never changes, it seems the world of HOME(2008) doesn't change either. Everything remains the same, from the way I spend my days to the way I interact with my friends. Perhaps this is because we've all changed but in relation to different people, so with respect to each other we only know how to interact as we've interacted before. I'm describing high school friends only.
The people I met outside of high school (during my high school years) I've begun to develop a different relationship with. They no longer treat me like a kid - was I that immature before? With them I feel as though I have changed and will continue to do so, but with high school friends it's as though time stopped for us the summer of our senior year. We can talk about what's happened to us in college, but our judgments and opinions of each other have solidified. It's at once comforting and disquieting.

I've become a harsher judge of character, of people. I wonder if that says anything about who I am.
K: Hey M, remember how I was a year ago?
M a lean independent woman with a bohemian air, currently comfortably perched on a tall chair with her legs propped up on another chair nearby: Hmmnn, yeah.
K: Was I really happy and oblivious back then?
M: Yeah pretty much, hahaha. But now you seem to be more aware of things. See people like that girl, what was her name... the one in the student group we were all in. S, yes, S. I don't think I would ever get along with her.
K: Why's that?
M: She was always into looks, and dressing up, and things like that. I could never do that. I wouldn't get along with her. You're not like that. I get along with you.
K: That's funny because, you see, S is my best friend.
