I set this goal when I was going through this really depressing time in my life. At school I was hanging out with this group of friends who were all really unpopular, but also extremely bitchy and pushy. They were all so loud and I was treated like a wasn’t there at all. If I did the slightest thing wrong they would be this massive argument. All they ever did was make me unhappy. But if I tryed to get away from them they would get really angry.
So i became very unhappy, I hated my life and I hated myself. I was withdrawn and unsocialble and school was hell for me. I blamed my unpopularity for all of my problems and decided that it was the only way out, but really it was alot to do with myself.
So from trying to get popular I’ve found myself moving to a very different place to the one I expected to be. Yes, I’m still not all that popular but I realize now that being popular probably wouldn’t have made me any happier. I’ve kinda moved away from my old mates although I still see them quite a bit, Im just nice to them and I don’t ignore them.I’ve started to hang out with this new amazing group of friends, who are all so nice and kind and friendly. They never have any arguments and I feel accpeted and loved. Two of my new friends are people that I’ve known all my life, and I missed them so much, I’ve realized how special they are to me, and it’s so good to see them again.
So, now I’m like a completely different person, I’m actually happy with myself and with my life. I have some amazing friends who love me for me. I’m nicer to everyone and I just love being happy all the time, I’m even a nicer person myself, I love to laugh and just have fun. This whole thing has made me wanna do things I never thought about before, I wanna stick pictures on my wall and have parties and run and jump and smile…..........yes maybe thats a little too crazy! I’ve found out who I really am inside and life has never been this good!
So for everyone out there trying to get popular, stop and think about who you really are and maybe you’ll realize something amazing
