Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    Sadly I couldnt wear my purple top this morning. So purple nails will have to do.
    Some people think I am unhappy. I'm not. I just approach silence in the world that never stops talking.

    June 14th- Fairly neat. History- absolute shit. Haha. Like me.

    June 15th- Yesterday I went Strawberry picking, made angel delight with strawberries in, ate chicken nuggets with chips, shot nerf gun bullets, taught a dog how to dance, blasted Who Let The Dogs Out full blast on Alexa, got licked by a dog, had egg fried rice for dinner and I ate loads of strawberries as I picked about 1.7kg. Today I spent lots of time with my sister as she came back home for good and I have eaten lots of crisps because why not? Oh and I have been on the boards.

    June 20th- Whatever that means.

    June 21st- Lanzarote or at my friends flat.

    June 22nd- What I have when I buy loads of food from the canteen and sit with other people at break time at school.

    25th June- Lemonade. And of course water as well. Sometimes orange juice as well but it isn't very good for my throat as it sometimes makes me feel sick for some strange reason.

    26th June- The Mix, Beat, my counsellor, Childline and my girlfriend. Does the periodic table song by ASAPScience also count as well?

    27th June- Portable charger. I can never go out without that.  And my phone too because otherwise there is no point of carrying a portable charger and a long lead.

    28th June- Chalk because of blackboards in the olden days. 

    29th June- I don't know what that even means so I won't put anything. 

    30th June- My improvements in gymnastics and my fear of balloons being dramatically reduced.
