When I walked into the local watering hole last night, I thought I was being punk'd and actually walking into my five-year high school reunion. Who knew so many people go out on a Wednesday night and so many of them still live in Tampa, or should I say "South" Tampa? (gag me).
It was surreal to see most of the people I have not laid eyes on in years, and it's crazy that no matter how much time passes, the same groups still hang out. I don't really know if that's a good or bad thing, but all in all, I think it's quite interesting. Last night was good for me because I got to see a lot of people that I had no idea if I would ever see again, and it got me all the more excited to start this next great adventure in my life.
Also, I'm starting to realize that Tampa night-life is nothing compared to what I am use to. I definitely need a change. I will miss all of my Tampa girls, but like me, their futures are uncertain and who knows where they will be in the next year or so. It's been nice to be home for a few weeks and really enjoy time with my family before the big move, and I am so grateful to have grown up in such a beautiful place. But, life's a changing, and I'm so ready for it. Bring it on.

I def agree with you that friends that stay in Tampa still do the same thing now as they did in high school -- same people, same places, just five years later. Fine for them, but def not interesting to me.
