During spring break this year, I spent my time at home in East Cobb. Being back at home for a week brought back memories of living in this town and what all went down. I was especially reminded of this while sending my twin little sisters off to their junior prom. We find ourselves doing the same things over again, even years later. Here are 10 reasons you knew you grew up in East Cobb:
1. You are well aware of the nickname "East Cobb Snob" and you hold that title with pride.
2. High school football games were as intense as the TV show Friday Night Lights (Go Trojans).
3. Prom was a time where everyone was suddenly entered into a beauty pageant.
4. The moms are always involved in all of the gossip, and there's no escaping it.
5. You always run into someone you know at Target, Publix or Trader Joe's.
6. You went to Cancun for your senior spring break and took pictures on the beach.
7. You ate at Asahi or Fuji Hana for every birthday and topped it off with dessert at Menchies.
8. When you wanted to be granola, you went to Kennesaw Mountain to go on a hike.
9. As you got older you began visiting places like Old Roswell and Buckhead, where you still saw all of your fellow snobs.
10. Sometimes you hate how small the bubble you grew up in is but, in the end, you'll always be that East Cobb Snob who thinks of it as home.
