Life / Love life update ?
So I am dropping out of collage and taking a gap year to figure some stuff out and the girl I’ve mentioned before the one who is my friend and whom I have a crush (I hate using this word) on didn’t even say anything on the matter. I mean I didn’t message her directly, I just said it in the group chat but still… I guess I just wish she cared. Instead she just acts like nothing happened and sends me memes.
These last seven months have taught me so much about myself. I’ve questioned who I am, what I want and what is important to me. I’m happy though because I’m finally beginning to answer those questions. This first year at college has been a life changing experience for me, but not in the way that most kids experience it. I’ve learned things about myself that I never knew before. I’ve learned not to follow societies norms just because people say I should. Educations are important, and the college experience is wonderful, but not for all people. I want to dedicate my time to other things over the next year, which is why I have chosen to take a gap year. I have truly discovered the importance of my family and the importance of appreciating life for all the little things it has to offer that many people take for granted. Going to college has shown me that I don’t want to live the life that I had planned when I graduated high school. My mind has changed, my priorities have changed, my attitude has changed, and I learned that it is okay for that to happen. I no longer feel like I have to make everyone else proud of me, because the greatest form of success is happiness and I am finally pursuing what is making me happy. In turn, people shall be proud of me for that.
Now that I’ve finished my exams I can finally start planning my gap year and that is really exciting because it’s something I’ve literally always wanted to do.
You know, the guidebooks all tell you that Pisa is only a day trip. It’s somewhere you quickly pop over to while you’re in Florence just so you can take photos trying to high-five the Leaning Tower. It only has the one thing. You don’t need to be there for more than a few hours.
But you know what? THEY’RE ALL WRONG.
HEAR THAT LONELY PLANET?
I DON’T AGREE WITH YOU.
I HAVE AN OPINION.
DO I STAND…
William at 40: The early years of a future king
William at 40: The early years of a future king
From the moment he was born on 21 June 1982, Prince William’s mother, Diana, was determined that his early years would be as similar as those of any other child despite his royal destiny.
William began school at Jane Mynors’ nursery school and the pre-preparatory Wetherby School, both in London. As he grew, he would go on to attend Ludgrove School near Wokingham, Berkshire, and spent his summers…
