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! :)

Relaxing :)

Today, I just took it easy.

I was so feckin' tired yesterday after just two days of school, I couldn't even get myself to turn on the laptop! So, today, I decided to take things easy. After a nice hot shower to wake me up, this morning, I helped clear the guest rooms upstairs &, then, finished the homework I had started yesterday evening.
   I must say, I'm rather proud of my Geography homework! Haha! All I had to do was copy down a diagram & some key terms on the Earth's internal, like the mantle & the core. Easy stuff, but I decided I was totally going to colour in my diagram & outline it in a black felt-tip pen. I'm half hoping I'll impress my teacher, but, also, keep myself interested! If I haven't said it before, I strongly dislike Geography & especially the teacher I have, Mr. C.
   Mr. C is well known for being the funny teacher & he can be. I even find him funny! However, the guy can't teach very well. He obviously knows his stuff, but he can waste a class by literally staring blankly out the window. Then the other half of the time he gets so easily distracted & banters about stupid stuff with the lads. I had him for the previous four years & he only once actually corrected our homework & copies. I'm 100% serious. I had hoped I'd never have to do Geography again, especially with him, but the new timetable obviously didn't go my way.
   So, I'm determined to study hard & to try & keep myself interested, because he sure won't. That's for sure.
   Anyway, after my homework, I watched a documentaries on YouTube. I seriously recommend the Extraordinary People documentaries. I watched The Girl with a New Face (I think that was the name anyway) & The Boy Who See Without Eyes. Both extremely good.
   Ben Underwood, the boy that sees without eyes, had his eyes removed just before he turned three years old, to stop the spread of cancer. However, I had found, just after watching the documentary that he had died of a brain tumour, just before his 17th birthday in 2009. I felt like crying. He was such an amazing lad, learning to "see" using echolocation from the clicking sounds he used to make. 

May Ben Underwood Rest In Peace.
