Throughout the final term in this school year I have been more laid back and enjoying myself outside of school more than focusing on my schoolwork, which hasn’t really taken a hit, but with me taking more time for myself, I have found that I have become a much more positive and relaxed person. Maybe it is due to the new people that I have met outside/inside of school, or maybe it is just that I am more happy with myself as a person. I’ve found myself searching for people who have just a good vibe/energy to them, people who aren’t fake and like you for the person that you are. I don’t want to write some sappy blog because that isn’t the person that I am, some of the things that make me more positive are very simple. I find myself having these “holy fuck” moments, now these moments can be simple, or just a sudden realization, such as me listening to music differently and going “holy fuck I didn’t know it was about that”, or hanging out with friends and looking back like “holy fuck that was fun”. Looking back at these moments make me laugh and realize that I have started to appreciate the small things in my life, and enjoying the time I have left in high school. The people that I have recently met over the past school year, have been people that I see as friends when I am an adult, people that I can trust, who I know will be there for me. I found out this year that some of my closest friends weren’t truly my friends, which hurt a bit, and left me confused, but ultimately searching for more real people. I think that this experience has taught me a lot about people, but it taught me that I am better than fake friends. This experience will lead me into adulthood and hopefully make me a better man. I don’t think the search is all that difficult, because most of those people have been
there the whole time, you just had to get to know them more. I kind of glad this happened, because if it didn’t, I still be in that same spot, with friends who I was just kinda friends with, and that was it, not people that I talked to outside of school, went to parties with, or did things with, I wouldn’t be as positive if I was in that same position. Now with university and graduation around the corner, I’ll start to meet new people and will have a different perspective when it comes to choosing who I associate with, and who I am friends with. Still, I love my “holy fuck” moments, and when I realize I am having one, I instantly have a slight chuckle, and I hope I have have many more in the future. Jake V

I like at the end of your blog that you said that you were kind of glad this happened. i think it really shows that genuine friends are much better to have than fake friends, even if you have to loose fake friends sometimes to find more genuine people. Great blog!

I liked the part you said "Looking back at these moments make me laugh". i go out with friends back in my country, and even we are normally apart when i look back to that time, i reassure that i could feel comfortable taking to them everything. Great blog,

I really like this post. I think it’s really important to slow down and take a minute to enjoy the little things. I’ve also had a few of those moments and it does feel really good, especially when everything starts picking up and it feels like you have more on your plate.
