Whenever I arrive back to my hometown of Charlotte, NC, I become depressed for about a month. After experiencing greener pastures, Charlotte seems so...boring, lame, and just plain underdeveloped. I feel as if I've been cheated for living here. I feel as though I've been using a top of the line Alienware computer, it breaking, and having to use a shitty E-machine. That metaphor pretty much sums up my feelings of returning to Charlotte.
God, I want to live abroad forever.

Shit, Charlotte IS boring and depressing. Im also from Charlotte.
And yeah, I know what you are talking about. I dont travel as much as I would like to (being a student tends to curtail things like that), but when I do, I definitely dont want to go home.
