[this may be a little cliched but oh well...] This year has been terrible, and yet so eye opening at the same time. Not only has it taught me a little more about myself, but also a little more about who is actually my friend and who just wants to help a charity case. I've learned about what I can and can't stand, as well as who I'd want to surround myself with as opposed to who I would not want to. I learned who in particular I can't stand, and how certain people react to my not wanting to be friends with them. I've learned...well this is getting a little cliched so I'll leave it at this: Despite the fact that this year hasn't been the best, I've learned a lot about myself, who my real friends are, and who I should surround myself with, seriously realizing that the people I once surrounded myself with are not those real friends nor are they the ones I should surround myself with. [woah for great english skills too tired to care about grammar at the present moment]. Basically, sophmore year has been the biggest learning process ever. Hopefully, I can put what i learned into good use
