College

I've realized recently how much I miss college. The theatre department at my school was pretty much a second home to me. I loved all the people, all the fun, the fact that I was doing what I loved with people who loved it just as much...

On Facebook all the time, I see photos people have posted, things they post on each other's walls, new people that have become involved in the theatre department ... I just feel sometimes like now that I've graduated, I'm not a part of it anymore, and that my spot has been "replaced" in some way. They've got new jokes, new memories, new friends. I know it's silly, and I know it's the natural cycle of things for people to come and go, but I can't help feeling this way. I still keep in touch with my friends from college, but in some small way, things have changed. I love not being weighed down by the expectations of college, but I do miss the experiences that came along with that.

I'm going to visit in a couple of weeks for one of the shows. I'm really excited. I hope I have a great time, and I hope that I fit right in like I used to.
