Everything's changing...

Without a doubt, yesterday was emotional to say the least. After having spent the past six years of my life with the same people practically every day it was hard to face the fact that yesterday was my last official day at school with them. Of course, I shall see them again and with Facebook and Twitter it'll be easy to see what everyone is up to as we move on (stalking is good occasionally!) but yes, yesterday was particularly hard for everyone. Today, on the other hand I keep smiling at the memories and pictures we all shared and I can safely say that, without sounding too tacky and obvious, that these six years have been better than I could've hoped for. It would take too much time to include every single picture, so I include the video that the wonderful Anna Marsh produced for everyone to see which sums up my time at Belvoir so well. If you want to hear more from Anna, herself, visit buttonsmadeofbrass.blogspot.com and a big thanks to Anna for this video. It really is wonderful. By the way, if you're wondering who I am, I am the girl with the vibrant red hair who casually pops up once in a while! Some quotes can be seen underneath.


"Everybody's changing and I don't feel the same."

"You were only given this life because you were strong enough to live it."

"You are not boring or vain or simple or mean. You're colourful, complex, and have a beauty that's all your own. And, for the record, you are infinitely nicer than you give yourself credit for."

"I don't know if we each have a destiny or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze. But I think maybe it's both. Maybe both are happening at the same time."

"You judge a book by its cover and you might miss out on an amazing story."

"Happiness comes in many forms. In the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy, because you never know how fleeting that happiness may be."

"There's a story behind everything: how a picture got on a wall, how a scar got on your face. Sometimes, the stories are simple and sometimes they are hard and heartbraking."

"At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out; they fence you in. Life is messy, that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them. If you're willing to take the chance, the view from the other side is spectacular."
