I haven't posted in a while, I would love to say that I have a really good reason for not posting, but I do not. To be honest I have just simply been enjoying this time, I have no set schedule (although I have been waking up at ten past nine most days) each day and I do whatever I want, when I want to. I have been loving spending time with friends, relaxing, going to the beach and just in general building great relationships with all the people around me. Last year was the most hectic year of my life and I have just so badly needed this chill time. So much has changed in my life and this year is like a complete fresh start. Ooo I got my school results and can get into whichever university I decide on.
I never got to talk about leavers. I explained it a little in another post but basically leavers is a week for Australian school leavers to party. Five friends and I rented a house in down south, right in the heart of the partying. It was the perfect leavers house, close to the beach, close to the town and most importantly close to the bus stop which took us to the raves. The raves were not how I had expected, it was basically a fenced off area in a dirty paddock. There were DJ's, dancing, rides and lots of people. It was so much fun, four nights of partying away all the struggles we had just been through. Im not going to lie and say that there wasn't times when I had to rip some of my friends hair out, but through it all I believe that most of us have strengthened our relationships so much. We went through the good, bad and the ugly together and now our friendships are stronger than ever.
Right now I am still just living the chilled life, going shopping and basking in the glowing Australian sun. Although I know this bliss will end, eventually I'm going to have to go to uni and get back into the real world. Im not sure I'm ready for that as I still have no idea what I see myself doing with my life, but for now my plan is to just keep enjoying this amazing life i'm living.
Bye for now

Growing and learning...
So it may sound like a very obvious statement, but as we grow up so many things change around us. Many of these changes we never would have thought would change. It has been send a million times over but the teenage years, I believe, are truly one of the biggest times of growth and change in a person's life. We go to high school, get a little more freedom, make new friends and lose old ones and lets not even get int all the crazy places we grow hair and fat on our bodies. The one thing that does stay the same and which definitely has in mine, is the relentless love and support of our families through all the scary changes.
As a seventeen year old girl I can definitely say that my relationship with my mother hasn't always been the easiest and it will never be perfect. We will constantly clash (as we are so alike), although now after going through all the horrors of puberty and hormone changes I appreciate everything my mother has and will do for me. I have been a complete little b*tch to her at times, but through it all she has always had faith that I would grow to become a good person, in which I believe I am becoming. My mum is seriously my best friend and now I feel comfortable talking to her about anything. The biggest thing that this turbulent, hormonal roller coaster of a relationship has taught me is that MUMS KNOW BEST.
As teenagers we sometimes forget that our parents have already been through all the mean teachers, horrible peers and fake friends. Seriously our mothers are equipped more than anyone to give us advice on anything from friend problems to school issues. I have had to learn this the hard way. For example, two of my friends my mum has never liked, she always said she couldn't trust them and that she thought they were not good people for me to be around. These girls were my absolute closest friends, so as a typical teenager I ignored what my mum said and remained very close with them. It wasn't until things got busy and hard in my life that I realised these girls were not actually true friends to me, my mother was right... To make her even more right the girls she had liked and I had always seen as my second friends, were actually the ones that stuck by me and to this day are still my closest and most trusted friends. This is just one of the many times that I hate to admit but I should have listened more to my mum...
