Congratulations Duke and Duchess of Cambridge....

I thought that baring in mind what i happened yesterday it would be appropriate to talk about love....

All through life we're taught through films and tv programs and books, that our "one" is out there, somewhere in the big wide world, waiting to be found. But what they don't exactly show is that the only way you can get to them is if you open your heart and are prepared be honest about your feelings. I don't know about other people but i'm scared that i'll never find that....i'm scared that i'll never find that person who i want to spend the rest of my life with and whom i'll love forever and will feel the same about me. I believe that everything happens for a reason and that the people you meet in life help to shape who you are as a person, and your past experiences determine your personality and whether you are an openminded person or a scared person who chooses to run away from a good thing when it's staring them in the face. The constant idea of what if that person you love the most in the world, doesn't love you back? Often puts people off from living their life to the full!....When Kate Middleton and Prince William both applied to St Andrews University in 2001, St Andrews saw a huge increase in applicants and 9/10 applicants were woman. It's been reported that Kate used to have a picture of William on the back of her door, no doubt like a good percentage of all the other woman applicants of St Andrews that year, but unlike all those others William loved her back and decided that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, what we didn't know then is in 10 years they would get married, for the whole world to watch on their tv's. And on the 29th April 2011, Prince William of Wales became Prince William, Duke of Cambridge but more importantly Catherine "Kate" Middleton became Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. It shows that a member of the Royal family can fall in love with a "commoner" and it doesn't matter who sees it, because it's true love, and surely that's all that matters?

What i'm trying to say is no matter who you are true love will always shine through, you just have to be ready to open your heart the day that it arrives and to not be afraid to be completely honest about who you are and how you feel, because if that person loves you then even your worst secrets won't be too much for them to overcome. Follow your heart, you'll have less regrets and it could lead you too your "one" true love....

Dreams

When you ask people about what their dreams are you get the typical responses, singer, actor, dancer, doctor, footballer etc. As children get older they tend to lose sight of what their dreams are, they either lose interest in what their desired career was or they realise how easy it is for their dream not to come true. So instead of giving it their all and pursuing that dream, they focus on their education and try to get as many qualifications as they can to better than chances in life. Right now i don't have a specific dream, when i'm laying in bed asleep, that's when my dreams have the opportunity to be alive for a few hours. I often wonder if there was one thing in the world i could do for the rest of my life as a career, it would probably be a musician, just because of my love of music, right now i have 8271 songs on my ipod which says a lot about my life....yes, my ipod is pretty much my life, music is a huge passion of mine, i love the way one single song can change your whole mood, it can turn you from upset to happy and vice versa. My music taste ranges from Britney Spears to Coldplay to City and Colour to Justin Bieber to Jackson Waters to The Wanted. All i can say is that if you have a dream that you really want to come true then pursue it (unless it's something insane like to become an ant or something because that is probably not ever going to happen, sorry) if it really means something to you then what do you have to lose? At the end of the day, if it doesn't work out at least you can say you tried, right? Never have regrets, they will always be there to remind you of what could of been.

Head or Heart?

All around us are people, people that we know, people that we don't know, people that some day we may know, people that we will never know. The one important thing to remember is to appreciate everyone in your life that you love and could not live without. Life is too short to be worrying about those that don't matter to you and vice versa. So if the difference between a loved one of yours walking around with a smile knowing exactly how you feel about them or that feeling of being complete pointless to your life, could it be that they just need you to tell them that you love them? if it is then do it. You only live once and for all you know everyday that occurs could be your last day, who would you wish to spend that day with? is it someone who is a huge part of your life? family member? best friend? boyfriend? girlfriend? is it that boy from the back of your classroom that you've always had a thing for but you've spoken to once or is it that girl that your completely in love with but has a boyfriend who happens to be your best friend? You just have to decide what is more important to you, is it that girl? or is it your best friend? It's easy to make decisions by using your head, often those decisions include an easier and smooth journey which eliminate you getting your heart broken but it don't necessarily mean that you'll be happier. I feel that if you go with your heart then you're more likely to become a stronger and more passionate person throughout your life, you're more likely to hold less regrets and you might just find the love of your life by taking that risk of choosing your heart over your head. If there's any doubt, i suggest you listen to both and decide exactly what you want at that exact moment in time and then make your decision....

Really we're all the same....

Life is ‘like a box of chocolates’ it's cheesy but it's true. You really never know what you are going to come across next, and i guess that’s what makes everybody different and special, because you get to see how they’re dealing with living life without knowing what could happen next. I see people day to day expressing their opinions and feelings to so many things whether it’s our country’s pm’s who ‘think’ they know what we want as a country united but really we just want to live a fair life, where everybody has the same opportunities as every other person living and working in this country. It’s similar to what teacher’s and people to do with education. They think they know whats best for us, and some times there right but a lot of the times there wrong. It’s not entirely there fault, cause they don’t see things the way children do. Our main priority that i think everyone feels is that we just want to feel like we’re important not just the 'brainiacs' or the people that struggle with education but everyone that is part of that school. Schools should be seen as one giant dysfunctional family i guess, everyone spends approximately 6 hours together everyday 5 days a week, they go through various things as one and deal with the normal pressures of life. But instead of fighting against each other which is often the case between student and teacher, they should be working together as one to create the best future for that student and give them a life they deserve, but this tends to get forgotton in class. A lot of people think that the relationship between a student and teacher should have a line of ‘power’ and that the teacher should be the ‘strict’ one and the student should ‘obey’ everything, but who are they kidding, i dont know about everyone else but i’ll work my arse off for a teacher who i get along with and that i can basically treat them like just a friend instead of this line that draws a 'line'. Kids don’t want and don’t need this, the just need guidance and some help along the way whether it’s teachers teaching students and sharing everything they know and making it in some way understandable or whether it’s just that they give advice to do with school or just life in general. People are often misunderstood of what they need and want from someone like our prime minister or their headteacher or someone that has the ability to make a difference.
