Make Effort for People who Make Effort for You // 365 project // Day 6

Yesterday I wrote about how I was miles outside my comfort zone going to a day out for a birthday of a friend. And one of my reasons for going was challenging myself outside of my comfort zone. Seeking new and unfamiliar territory.

The main reason though was that this year my aim is to make effort for people who make effort for me. And my friend is someone who makes effort to see me, to text. And this year I want to make sure I’m returning the favour. Not just for her but all the people in my life who make the effort.

I’m going to stop putting a lot of effort into one sided friendships. And start putting in effort to the people who can often be taken for granted because they're always there.

Putting in the effort can be rewarding, whither instantaneous like last night where going out resulted in meeting friendly new people and discovering new cocktails bars that I will certainly be returning to. Other times it may take a while to see your effort paid off like with exercise or eating healthier but no matter the case if you put effort into the right things then you will reap the positive side effects.

365 days

It's been a year since the last day of high school. It feels like it was both just yesterday and an entire different lifetime ago we were traipsing up and down the halls from class to class.

I didn't attend the last day of school, instead I went to my college interview. I proceeded to get into that course and am currently a month away from finishing first year. Time genuinely flys so fast and I feel like I say that a lot each time I post. Because time slips away and suddenly I'm months away from the last time I posted and it feels like no time has passed at all. I can't believe we are nearly half way though 2014.

I have to say that the last 365 days have had some of the highlights of my life so far. I turned 18, started college filmed a 3min short and a music video, got a tattoo, met one of my favourite bands Patent Pending, have been to numerous gigs, and had amazing times with my friends.

...10 months later

I keep thinking to myself awk I will update the blog tonight… yeah that’s been 10 months of thinking that, but to be honest not much has been happening… and time has been flying. Anyway I FINALLY! finished high school and was left in a limbo area of education as I had no clue what happened next. When my exam results came in I was upset and further confused about the future… though they weren’t exceptionally bad… I hadn’t quite met my conditions for my course at college. So I went to another college to enrol in night school to get a better grade on my higher English… after waiting in a THREE HOUR queue and getting in to the course I had a missed call and a voicemail to tell me that I had been accepted on to the original course of TV Production. Was just a palava really. But now I’m here and I am enjoying it. And that two-to-three weeks of just not knowing what to do and nothing going right is a distant memory.

The rest of the year has really just been filled with going out with friends, studying and work with the occasional concert inbetween. AND I TURNED 18 WOOP!!!!.... so I’ve found myself with very little to write about… and very little time to write.

So Here's a little glimpse of my year... in pictures
