So, here I am. New year, new start. I guess.
New years eve was as good as any. Party, party, party. You know the way.
But enough of the small talk. I have decided to start a blog. Last year was one of the most amazing years of my life. I met so many new people, my confidence grew and I realised that you don't have to be someone you're not just to get people to like you. No one likes a liar. If I can say anything about my self it would be that I'm honest. Honesty isn't always the best policy, and sometimes a little lie can save someone from themselves. But I also realised that no one can change their true personality, someone could be nice, rude, passionate or just "weird" as people like to say, this doesn't mean that they aren't worthy of friends or just acquaintances because they may be "too nice" or "really rude", they're showing their true colours and that's what really counts in my book. They aren't trying to be some smart arsed know-it-all with perfect looks who just what people to acknowledge they are there. A real person talks from the heart, lets you know when he or she is feeling alone. I admit that I'm not always myself, I can pretend to be someone I'm not, but it is never anything major.
So, I'm just a girl. A southern, middle-class, white girl who has the occasional emotional problem, likes to have a laugh and enjoys her life as it is right now. I want to go to college next year, can't wait to leave school. I have a mix of friends - from private school to state school, from coloured skin to pale skin, from upfront to shy. My friends mean the world to me, I love each and every one of them like they are a brother or a sister to me.
Currently listening to Mmmbop by Hanson, makes me smile. Having watched two Hilary Duff films today I am in the mood to be girly. So that may be another reason why I'm starting an online blog sorta thing. Haha.
Next installent will be coming sometime during the next week or so.
All my love.
