I found this on a sideblog, and I did a lot of things I wanted to, I did amazingly on my as results, got back into reading, went to a music fest, I did have,,, two girlfriends but they both didn't last very long and weren't serious, got not one but 4 offers from unis, and decided which one to go to! Not made as much art as ive wanted but I have been doing it thought the year, ive not fallen fully in love but, ive also reconsidered the way I think of love and friendship and I did tell someone I had strong feelings for about them and im pound of myself for that. I fell in love with a lot of my friends but in a nice way, not in a horrific unrequited love way, I'm learning to drive, if feeling a little shaky on it, I wrote a brilliant epq on art history and aesthetics which was really interesting and I loved having the opportunity to do independent research. I took my a levels. I have no comment on how well the exams went but I got though it all! I'm really proud of myself. and, most importantly, I was happy- for most of the time. This, despite all the stress, the uni rejection, the slight existential terror of growing up, has been one of the best years of my life. I think the highlight was the trip to London and Paris with my friends, it made every part of me happy.
I suppose I should say something about my goals for 18. I want to get my a levels, move out of home and go to uni, I want to make hundreds of new loose friends and a handful of good close ones, I want to love my course, I want to do well (even though first year doesn't count), I want to cook for myself and others,, a lot of the time, to join societies, keep up my dancing and maybe pick up some more hobbies, I don't know, there are going to be so many new opportunities this year, all ive got to do is take it as it comes. I just want to keep on loving myself and loving life and living honestly in the way I want to
and, to be honest, you guys on here have been part of my life this year, so thanks to all of you!
