This is from a while ago. Know that.
You didn't know how to react to our world. You were young, getting out of high school, and checking your options. Awkward, gangly, uncomfortable with those who had done this for years before.
Perhaps you never really went away from home much, like me. Maybe this was your first time being away for longer. Possibly, we just didn't get where you came from. Your past to us was an enigma we didn't want to crack.
After all, you were visiting us, not the other way around.
Now I see you here. Still gangly, less uncomfortable. You have people around you, you've got somewhere you're going to. College is home now. And you don't mind, one bit.
