Closer to New Year

So here we are, 4 days away from new year;s and around this time people start making new years resoultion and what not in order to change themselves for the coming year. It makes me wonder if new year's resolution ever worked out for anyone it certainly hasn't for me, I'm not sure as to the reason why but all I know is that I could never stick to one. It maybe because situations change, the scenery changes making it hard for you to keep to your resolution  sure it's just a year but a lot can happen within a year.

Post to my younger self

Life is going to seem complicated to you at the tender age of 16, you will be maturing as a person, have radical thoughts on how to change the world when you grow up, probably facing your exams right about now. The future looks uncertain, unsure of what you want to do and having the pressure of having to decide right now, you would want to abroad no doubt for your education and you are hoping against hope that you will be able. Friends in school is already applying for colleges and universities abroad and you must be wondering when it will be your turn, don't worry the time will come. But most importantly this is what I want you to understand, from a somewhat matured person. 1) The cool people are really not that cool  Those people that you think are having a great time and you keep wishing are a part of their inner circle are not as awe-some as you may think. Later on you will realize that it was actually a good thing that you are not in their inner circle, all they seem to d...
