Wow ... sorry, it is all I can think to say ... Life is just so ... "wow" ...
I am not sure if I am attacking a positive or negative connotation to the word, but either way, I stand in awe ...
I stand in awe of how radically different I am ... and how much I have completely and utterly changed. For the better? Probally not, to be honest, I was better then. I am not some horrible person now ... but I am just not the same person. But honestly how can someone be the same when they are in a new town, a new school ... when they have new friends, a new team, new organizations, new classes ... when they have a different car, a different clothing line ... when they have different rules, different expectations ...
