These days, I’ve been feeling a lot more optimistic. I’ve made a lot of new friends in college, and my old ones (the ones that left me feeling drained and depressed…) I don’t hang out with that much. Trouble being, when I DO see them, I’m reminded of the difference in feeling from them and my other friends.

I don’t let them effect me as much anymore, though, and even though I still have bouts of negativity, overall, it’s a upward progression.

ETA: I’m not blaming my old friends for my negativity, just saying that when I’m around them it’s a lot easier to fall into negative behavior.
