Picture for the Day : - So this is a picture clicked by a new photographer I learnt about, named Jessica Hilltout. (Her website link is somewhere on my blog page btw :P If you bother checking it out, it's really really cool.) She clicks pictures of the Imperfections she sees in Africa, which is where she is right now, working on her AMEN project. If you go onto her website, her biography is pretty cool! I don't think half of the photographers out there even realize the amount of beauty and emotion they are capturing while they click the simplest of things. The picture above is (evidently) a pair of worn out sandals alone. Makes you feel a bit lonely, don't it?
Okay, So on to the topic on my mind for today. There's this girl who used to be one of my best friends until last year. She was the kind who was always judged by everyone around him, and sometimes by me too, but for different reasons. Bottom line - I can't STAND her anymore, but I'm still quite grateful to her for a lot of shit he taught me. Like, after his millionth attempt to fit in with the crowd by being fake and not-herself, I learnt that my own year of trying to make friends in my hellhole of a school was a freaking waste of time. Nobody has a heart in that place, and I'm doubting how much of one I have myself.
I've found a limited amount of people like my twin sister (not biologically my twin, but amounts for the same thing in reality) and a few others who I think will last forever but I'm not too sure. I've learnt the hard way recently that the more you expect from something, the harder it's going to hit you when it decides to get bored of you and fuck off. Expectations really ruin things, and I've been thinking about that a lot lately. I think it's impossible not to expect, but you gotta do it sometimes. At times you're in too deep. I expected most of my now ex-friends to last 'forever'. I don't think I know how long 'forever' actually is. And not a lot of people do...
I'm not too sure of what I'm saying right now, but I'll leave you with this - People in your life are OBVIOUSLY gonna come and go, we've established that a long time ago. But the ones who're gone now still do or once did affect who you are. Some taught you to be bitchy, some made you get into music, some made you bitter and some broke your heart. But each one of them is a part of you... So hate em, but acknowledge that they were learning experiences. That girl made me perceptive and bitter, but it's who I am now so... I'm good :)
