when I was in ottawa in april, my dad and i drove all over… and it felt kind of weird how much hasn’t changed. there’s always a lot of change in that city, but it was the things that stayed the same that stood out the most. but even when we’d stop to eat in a familiar spot, it didn’t really feel like home at all. My dad only moved into his current home after I was living in Guelph full time, but it feels the most like ‘home’ compared to anything else in Ottawa.. and I think it’s the smell and the feeling of comfort… but when I leave the house I feel so out of place and like I don’t belong ;P

i’ve always been a big believer that home is where my cats are, after all…

Thanks for commenting, ladies! Yes, home is a pretty weird subject, I’m never really sure how to feel about it. But you’re right, you can never really go home.

Next time I’m just bringing a crapload of friends and we’ll drink our faces off for a few days.

Ahh this post just gae me an extreme case of nostalgia. I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing but i always get a similar feeling when i go home. I have my 10 year reunion next week and it scares the shizznizzle out of me! I loved this though!

I miss the place that I graduated from high school and it’s been 20 years since I’ve been back. I think any places that holds deep memories always calls to us in different moments, just a reminder.

I guess it is like they say, “you can’t ever really go home again”. Once you’ve left, things will never be the same. Mostly that is a good thing.

Home always does odd thing to a person’s brain. You’re normal. Also, it’s good to realize that sometimes there are “echos” of emotions that make us THINK we’re actually feeling those emotions…but honestly, they’re simply constructed from memory.
