Comfortable.

We all have our ups and downs and if i just dwell on the bad times then the good things in my life will never become clear. Time for a new me and a new outlook on my life. 

I am going to be more open-minded, more positive and much more caring. I will listen to people, make decisions on what my heart is telling me and I won't purposely change someone's opinion on something just because I think differently! I need to come out of my shell. I mean really need to!

I had my first ever exam today. Half of it went really well and the other half wasn't too great - but I was expecting that. I felt so grown-up sitting in that exam hall, surrounded by faces that i'd seen everyday for the past 4 years (11 for some!) and feeling so independent. I had been through almost everything with these people. Not many of them knew me, in fact half of them probably couldn't even tell you what colour of eyes I have! But I felt comfortable there, knowing that they were all experiencing similar things. 

My philosophy teacher made a really good point the other day. He said "I don't see the world the way you do, neither does the person to your left or the one on your right. The things that you think about, they will never understand. The way this whole classroom is laid out politically (referring to who was sitting where), they don't see."
