every day i'm shuffling...

so university life....
it's entirely different from anything i have experienced in my nineteen years of being, and i cannot express how much i love it. also, how much things have changed in these short few months...

friendships have shifted quite dramatically, and those who remained constant are somewhat unexpected, but most appreciated and loved.

those with whom i now feel at odds, well...let's just say i'm not too terribly surprised.

there are a few however, who i thought i wouldn't grow apart from, at least not for a while. but sadly, it seems that i have, for whatever reason. and so i have my constants, and the new friends that i love surprisingly a lot, and then the renewed/revived friendships, which are all amazing. and then there's those who faded suddenly into the distance, and others who were never meant to remain. it's sad in a way.

it reminds me of autumn. autumn is the somewhat unpopular transition from summer to winter (i love autumn actually, a lot of people don't though), a time in which some things fade away, some disappear suddenly, and some remain to tough it out through the winter. evergreen trees are great like that. consistent, resilient, there to provide when all the other trees have shed their leaves and faded away. yes, it's a bit of a lame nature metaphor, but i think it does sum up the point i'm trying to make.

anyway,
new friends are amazing.
old friendships renewed are even better.
the ladies' at parties/clubs is the best place to meet people.
never underestimate the bonding power of getting ready to go out with a friend.
metaphors relating to cheese are genius.
always listen to your constant/s, they're usually right.
don't apologise for being you.
