    At gymnastics I managed to sort of do a no handed cartwheel. It was only sort of as it started as 2 hands then I managed to get it as no hands near the end.

    Fought urges, through using the general chat thread as a distraction, as well as texting a friend and listening to a podcast

    “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

    I managed to lead a warm up in dance today all by myself and it went really well. The teacher was proud of me.

    Finished the Physical Development, Intellectual Development, Emotional Development, Social Development and Physical Factors parts of my 1st case study for Health and Social Care. Hopefully going to get a merit or distinction. Just got Social Factors and an Economic Factor left to do before it gets sent to the exam board.

    I'm currently supporting someone I live with, she has really bad anxiety at the moment and she's come to me for support. Today we rang the doctors together to book her an appointment, I sat with her and reassured her through out. I'm proud of myself because my anxiety is wobbly at the moment but I'm using that to help someone esle

    Thank you so much. I also held up a sign during the fire drill to tell some year 10 students where to go. I wasn't doing it at first but everyone I was with couldn't be bothered.

    It might sound like a tiny thing but it was a massive thing for me to actually help with that.
