Off To SNC

Ah yes, tomorrow I get to go to good old St. Norbert College. It's funny how much fun I have when going back there. I was hoping that by now I'd have as much fun being here, but alas, that's not the case. I think it has a lot to do with how I am around here. When I'm at school I can be my total self...wild, crazy, insane and all that. People accept that that's just how I am, and I think that they like the fact that I am just who I am and nothing more. Being here though is different. While I can just hang loose and be myself with my friends, it's always been hard to just be me around people I don't know as well or have a real personal connection with. And I think I know why. I have friends at school who are just totally nuts and funny as all hell, though if someone walked into the room that didn't know them they'd think that the person needed some mental treatment. It's all about getting to know the person and understanding who they are. Once you have that then I think those things shine through and you really can grasp how cool people can really be. This doesn't really happen on a first impression basis. And since I don't have that bond I have with my friends back at SNC here, it's harder to just let my hair down. Thankfully there is still a place where I can do that, at least for now.
