I'm in a really thoughtful, reclusive mood.
Here is my last post for sophomore year (be prepared for some serious randomosity).
*My friends are the best, hands down. Not that I'm biased or anything. I never really tell everybody how much I appreciate them, so here it is. You guys are what keep me going and looking forward to life. Without you, school and weekends would not be all that interesting.
I have met so many new, cool people this year (and also reconnected with old friends). I have really "broadened my horizons" culturally and socially. It seems like a lot of the cliques have finally dissipated. As the year has progressed, I have begun to feel more and more comfortable with myself and the person I am becoming. I tend to "let things fly" a lot more than I used to. I'm not nearly as sarcastic and cynical as I used to be. And I like it better this way. When I look back at the way I used to act, I am sometimes disgusted with myself. My whole attitude and way that I approach situations has completley altered from where I was last year. Why all of this change in my persona happend, I have no idea. I feel like my life can be broken down into pre and post sophomore year. Kind of weird, but I'm glad it happened.
In conclusion,

Don't conform to socities expectations. Do what you want. Do not do things to please others, it generally leads to dissappointment. Do things to please yourself. When you are happy, it rubs off. The people around you will be infected with your happiness. This is generally inevitable. And if you are truly, genuinely happy, it is not likely that you will dissapoint/upset others. Here is another one of life's endless cycles.
That's enough for now. |
