Taking over my bedroom wall...

Hello to anyone reading this.

I don't really have much to talk about but, i'll talk anyway.

So last night, i took down an old poster. And i finaly got round to putting up some photos. I now have 18 pretty pictures of me and my friends and some holiday snaps up on my wall. I don't have much more room on the same wall for any more. So i'm going to have to take over another wall. My sister is printing my other photos as i'm typing this, since i can't do anything right :P. As i'm on the subject of my wall and my photos, i thought i would add in a photo...of my photos :P :D.


Yeah. My photos are awesome.

I'm desperately trying to think of something to write about...It's not going to well...

So i will just leave it for now. This was one of the most random posts ever but oh well. I shall say goodbye and leave you with a photo of me right now :D.

Bye byee xx.

A Day In The Life Of Me.

Hey guys.

Why don't you listen to this song while you read this. I love it. It's a bit old, but a beautiful song.

So I'm not going to burden you with another strong point of view...not this time.
I'm going to talk about...my day. Not that it's been any more interesting than any other day...but then again...every day is interesting and full of surprises. Yeah, that's a bit more optimistic. Good.

Ahh...yes. So everyone over the U.K I'm sure has heard that most teenagers have been getting their exam results today. Yes. I was one of them.
Last year we sat our Standard Grade English exam. Today, we got our results. I am proud to say that i got a 2. I have to say that it is what i expected - maybe even higher than i thought I'd get. So i am pleased.
But enough about school.

I went into Glasgow today. Walked around. Looked at shops.
We went to Starbucks. I decided that me and my friends, when we go into town, should start hanging out there more often. Sitting in for a while, having a drink, a snack, a nice chat. Instead of rushing about and just grabbing a sandwich. Even just getting a drink to go. Mmm a nice chocolate frappacino seems like the best thing on warm days like it was today. My sister said that me and my friends aren't sophisticated enough for Starbucks. I don't think that's true. We will prove her wrong...

Every now and again, I'm going to do some daily observations...so here i go...

Daily Observations:

Street performers. It makes me smile to see people performing in the street. I like it. I don't see how some people can just walk past them without giving them a second glance. They're not doing anything wrong. I mean, everyone spends money buying CD's and concert tickets, so what's the harm in just giving a hearty tip to the people on the street. Today, i saw one group of teenagers, must of been just a few years older than me. playing together. They looked like they were having so much fun together. So i just think, the next time you see people playing in the street, or dancing, or juggling...just stop, and admire their courage and just enjoy it.

Sharing the love.

Okay so i got back from hanging out with my friends. I think it's funny how not that many people actually stop to think about how important the people close to you are until it's too late. So i guess this post is just trying to say thanks to all my friends and suggest that you take my words into account and make sure that your friends know that you appreciate them.


I guess the reason i am saying this is because me and my friends had a good chat today, and it got me thinking about how much we have all changed and even though we have gained more friends and, perhaps lost a few, I'm glad to see that my closest friends (you know who you are) are still as close as ever. And this is my way of saying thank-you.

Here's to friendship and love.

A look into my mind...

Okay so...my profile gave you a brief introduction to me. However, i feel you deserve to know more. So here i go.
Yeah, i may not be famous or the most popular person or anything...but does that mean that people shouldn't listen to me?...No, it doesn't, so it would be much appreciated if you actually take just a few moments to listen to what i have to say. Who knows, i might actually bring up some good points and get your attention.
One point that i must bring up, is the growing matter of stereotyping. It is a problem that almost everyone is affected by. One form of stereotyping i find myself being affected by is the label that has been stamped on many teenagers. I'm sick of the looks that me and my friends get from the older generations. I wear a hoodie...Does that automatically make me a "Hoodie"...No, it doesn't. I wear it 'cause it's warm and keeps me dry.
However, it is not only the older generations that are labeling other people. Stereotyping occurs all the time within the younger generations as well. I'm sick of everyone making fun at someone because of how they dress, what music they like, how they speak and for any other reasons. I wear black eyeliner and listen to rock music...Does that make me an "emo"?...No, it doesn't. It just means that i like the style. There is so many labels that are being stamped on my generation, "Emo" being just one.
Stereotyping has been going on for years and happens all the time. It has to stop. It's about time that the younger generation stand up and speak. We deserve to be heard. So the next time you go to label someone, think about what i - and many other people before me - have said.
Thanks for listening to me.
Until next time,
Cara.
