I'm Back, But, I Never Left

My first year of college is done. I'm now back in the home I waited on the acceptance letter in. The home I did high school homework at. The home where I was scolded and given curfews. Have I changed much? Have I evolved a great deal? I would love to say yes. But I don't necessarily feel as if I have. I feel like I had an a pretty strong grip on life before I left and I was just exposed to different situations, not necessarily new ones. I met different people, not more evolved ones. I had high expectations for college, especially at a UC, and its attendees. They were broken down by Winter Break. Soo.. now I sit & reflect. Academically, I enjoyed first semester. Gained some basic knowledge in introductory politics (things I should have learned if I paid any sort of attention in AP Government senior yr), I finally found the founding of American history interesting. & I quickly learned the ropes of how to interact w/ professionals on a collegiate level. I don't feel like a brand new college going human being! I'm still a virgin. I still haven't been in that serious, committed relationship I seek so vigorously. I'm a person back home w/ new stories to tell the friends I've acquired over the yrs. Hmm.. have I hit my evolutionary peek or do I give myself too much credit?
