CTY withdrawal (also known as ACW)
ACW: acute cty withdrawal
Currently, there is no cure. It is the period that can be a couple of days to several years after you leave CTY in which you miss your friends very very much. Symptoms may include hacking cough, the "sniffles," and a horrible cold, as well as randomly thinking of a great memory and breaking down crying. The most noticable of symptoms is the tearing that occurs (even in the toughest of men) whenever one hears any High Holy Canon (Forever Young, Stairway to Heaven, and American Pie), however American Pie has the most noticable effect. Also can induce the sufferer to listen to Canon repeatedly for the following month after CTY, especially all the songs which were not played at the dances. ACW is the reason for the various canon lists on the internet. The most effective treatment is that one either return to cty, create a cty boarding school, or spend lots of time with ctyers.

Acworth, Georgia
An even wealthier suburb of Paulding County, samller city/town that is in 4 different counties. Where the kids drive nicer cars than most adults and the adults don't drive, they are driven (or, just as often, the women drive H2's and the dads drive insanely small sports cars.) Most guy teens choose to drive insanely large jacked up AMERICAN trucks for offroading and girl teens prefer more lexus/BMW/mercedes. Jeeps are also seen EVERYWHERE. North Paulding High School has everything from their preps to the stoners. Their school also looks like a college campus. No good places to chill, most of them end up at Town Center Mall, fishing, off-roading, relaxing in Acworth's fine houses (Bent-Water & SevenHills) with hot tubs/pools/indoor movie theaters, and eating at all the good places. Chick-fil-a is the fast food of choice and the other popular spots are Menchies, La Prilla, and La Bamba. They can definiatly be stereotyped. White, rich, christian, and part redneck. Definitely southern, yet rich as hell and classy. If you've lived here all your life you know every backroad, Black Acre Trail, and your way around Harmony Grove Church Road like it's your job. Everytime you decide to go anywhere, you might as well roll your windows down and blast your kicks 101.5, you'll also want to keep your hand out the window to wave to all the people you'll pass, you're going to know 75% of them. There's no place like Acworth :)
Acworth, Georgia, is pretty much the shit. North Paulding is like a way of life. And if you go to Allatoona or East Paulding you mine as well keep out of Acworth because you're not going to be liked. AT ALL. NP BETCH.
