Stand Up For Who You Are!

If someone tries to bring you down, hold your head higher & smile

People get picked on & bullied for many different things. It could be something as simple as the clothes you wear or your style of hair, to the colour of your skin or the person you choose to love, whether it be a man or a woman.
I'm one of those people. However, I just think I have a flashing neon sign above my head saying "Pick On Me!" as I've no idea why people choose to bully me. I'm just trying to be myself! And that's just it! No matter what you do, how many times you colour your hair, or change your clothing style, some people will just walk right over you.
So, what do we do?
We have to learn to stand up for ourselves, because it's our right to have the freedom to live as we are. We shouldn't have to change ourselves in any sort of way, except to gain a bit of confidence & build on our self esteem.

My blog is about how I try to be me, trying to be the best I can be!

I promise you this is not a super depressing blog, because I sure as hell ain't a depressed person, though, I do have my moments, just as everyone else does.
This is where I will be 100% myself, expressing my thoughts & feelings on different matters & also my daily life.

What I hope to do here on this blog, is to put a smile on your face &, hopefully, let you know it's okay to be yourself; to be proud of who you are!

If you do read my blog & you find that you find what I say has some truth to it, or my wackiness & randomness of my true self puts a good smile on your face, please don't hesitate to comment & let me know! Putting a smile on someone's face is always the best thing! It'd make my day! :)

Well, I hope you enjoy my blog... Have a good day! :)

Best Birthday In A Long Time

I had such a great birthday yesterday!

I had woken up early to catch the bus into the city, to find it was pouring from the heavens. All I thought was, "Typical," but I turned around & continued to get ready - not even the Irish weather was going to ruin my day!

As I walked down to the post office (the bus stop), I rang D to see if she was waiting for the bus at the top of her road. I had this horrible feeling that she would sleep in or something. I've no idea why! She was already in the local town, waiting for the bus there.

When I was at the post office, A, the girl I had met at the Gaeltacht, texted me, saying she had gotten me a birthday present & would like to meet up for a few minutes to give it to me. I thought this was so thoughtful of her! I love this girl - she's feckin' awesome, so I invited her along on the day out, as it was only fair, as she bought me a gift. Plus, she lived in the city, so didn't have to travel 1hr 30mins like we do to get to the city. I was so happy she could come!

Anyway, in the city , J, D & I went shopping & met up with R (she had earlier appointments with the orthodontist, so came into the city with her mam) & A just before we went to see Ted.

Ted is feckin' brilliant! Very funny! I recommend it if you want a bit of a laugh. I'm so glad that we got to see it - all the girls loved it as well! Ha! In yer faces! Who said they didn't want to see it, eh? XD

After the cinema, we had an hour left, so we did a bit more shopping before we had to catch the bus.
Overall, apart from whatever school stuff I bought, I got some vibrant blue, skinny jeans, a plain, light brown, long sleeved t-shirt & this fecking amazing dress! I'll have to take photos or something on Mam's camera or something some day & show you the dress. It's now definitely my favourite dress - I'm going to wear it the first chance I get!

I was sad to say goodbye to A. We won't see each other for at least few months now, especially since she'll be studying like mad for her Leaving Cert (she's in the year ahead of me in school). She said she's going to try come out to my little rural area to see me some day, though! I really hope she can.

Overall, it was a great day & I was so happy to see everyone!
My best birthday in a long time!
