Your worst nightmare.

I-In your life you're going to faced with loads of challenges and there are going to be so many obstacles getting in your way, whatever you do, do not think that it's going to be impossible to get round those obstacles and face those challenges because it's not. Yes, you're going to have so many friendship problems, yes you're going to face having boy issues and then you're going to be worrying about what you look like, what others think of you and how popular you are but really you shouldn't be afraid to be who you are, you shouldn't care what others think and you shouldn't ever be bothered about popularity, I've learnt this over the past few months, it's taken me years to realize it but I'm glad I have. I cared about my appearance so much and I took what everyone said about me to heart. It got to a point where I stopped eating and just took painkillers and energy drinks because I thought I could manage. I couldn't. My school grades slipped dramatically, i nearly caused kidney failure, i had nervous breakdowns, i gained insomnia, i have liver problems, i never had the appetite to eat and I dropped weight. I'm still recovering from all these issues, I have teachers on my back and i have loads of people on my but you know what the worst part is? I still drink monster and i still don't eat as much as i should, all because I let what people said get to me.
-Next year you're going to choose your options, don't pick certain options just because you're friends are taking them, it doesn't work like that, choose what you enjoy and what you want to do, it doesn't matter whether you have to make new friends or not it's you that matters. It's you whose going to be doing that GCSE and getting the qualification, not your friends.
-It's been said that you find out who your real friends are at some point in year 10, it's true who your friends with now in year 8 probably won't be as close to you as you think in year 10, you'll have fights, you'll fall out and say everything you don't mean to one another, but just bare in mind there's 7 billion people out there and in sleaford theres only roughly 16,000.
-Don't think, oh yeah I'm in year 8 & 9 & 10 I don't have to do any work at all my exams are in year 11 so I'll just wait till then, pfft yeah right, don't give up now just because you think it isn't cool, truth is it isn't, but you need qualifications for everything, i know because I gave up i said I couldn't do it my grades went from A's to B's then they gradually made there way down to D's but now I've realized what I've done I've picked up my work and I've gone back to A's and B's.
-Listen to teachers advice, no matter how much they nag you and how annoying they can be, listen to them remember they're only trying to help you. Everything they say could help you later in life.
-Finally, oh my this has 15 minutes, don't give up because what you do now in school will affect you for the rest of your life, what you put into it is what you get out in the end x
