I'm sorry if it seems as if whatever I write is about one subject but it's the one thing I need to write down and get out. I mean I can tell Raleigh or Ryan almost anything but there are still things I have to keep to myself. So I'm on the topic of friends. AGAIN. And will probably be on this topic for the days to come. Now, it's not so much of What do I do about them but more of analyzing them.
Sydney. I've known Sydney since kindergarten. She's one of my oldest friends. Sydney seems so different from most people at my school but yet she's like them all. Everyone is so obsessed with what other people think about them they don't care what they think about themselves. In a way Sydney's like that. She cares about what people think yet she's got such high self esteem. At the end of the day the most important person for Sydney to please is herself. Sydney is going places. At times she seems so...For lack of a better word she seems plain. Like everyone else. But then you get to know her and it's like Woah! She's so talented in so many areas. When you're in a group with her she takes charge but not in a bad "I'm going to tell everyone what to do" way. She gets everyone organized and goes that extra mile to make the project better.
Sometimes I get jealous of her. She's so talented and is always getting praise from teachers. But when I think about it she deserves all that she gets. Sydney works her ass off to get the grades she does, to be where she is. She may not always be the best at what she does but she always sticks with it and tries her hardest. Even though she doesn't know it, she's confident in herself. It's not a bad thing. She's got such high self esteem and it's gonna take her places. She's not the smartest person in the grade, or the best athlete, or the most skilled musician or whatever but she's got that drive. She's had goals set for herself since she was a little girl.
I don't know. Sydney's a great person and a great friend. I just hope she really does show me how wonderful she's going to be.
By the way the question from the previous entry is still open! Maybe I should make some more LJ friends. Lol. I'm just so busy I don't have time :(
