The mind!
I'm often ashamed of how poorly I've developed my brain.
I'm not going to blame myself for how little I learned in school since it's reasonable (or at least excusable) to expect the system to do an effective job of teaching.

In the few years that I've been out of school, I've learned so little.

I know I'm a smart kid. The problem is that I've never really taken it upon myself to take advantage of that. There are always opportunities to learn, regardless of how trivial the knowledge may seem... it frustrates me that I've been so lazy.

This noggin' needs some substance.

I've been really enjoying myself in Montreal. I've missed my friends and it still hasn't sunk in that I'm not only here on a visit.
Whenever I've come to visit in the past, it's been a struggle to fit in as much activity with as many people as possible into a limited time. The fact that I'm here indefinitely hasn't really changed that.
I've been having a lot of fun :).

It's good you feel that way... if you felt you had learned it all, clearly you would have learned nothing. As your friend having spoken to you so much for so long, I have seen the growth in you. Of all things, you have really developed and honed your innate strength, and I think that's key if you're going to withstand all the substance yo. You're heading in a good direction, Evan, and the fact that you can see you still have much to learn means you're just one step further along a great path. This country kid might not have her own loft in a big city, but she's awfully proud to be your best friend. She's really glad to hear you're having so much fun with your friends, and wishes you the best of luck in all the endeavors she cannot partake :O
