So highschool... That was a traumatic and overwhelming transition. It was uneasy and chaotic, especially have coming from a co-ed primary school and then entering an all girls catholic private school. Wow nightmare, so much bitchiness and competitive spririt at the beginning couple of years. But everyone eventually became placid and tried less hard to try and fit in or prove something of themselves. Groups we're segregated in to race. You either were in a leb, italian/wog, aussie, or asian group. As for me i didnt really fit in to any due to being mixed raced. But i never saw my friends as being a racial division. My real group of friends included
Ashleigh, Ilaria, Jess, Waffe, Laura, Deanna and Danielle. We were a mixed group, full of our varied own values, intentions, morals, views and beliefs. This never interfered in our friendship. We all kept each other in line and we're there in times of struggle and need no matter what. Compared to the other girls in the barkada groups around us there was soo much internal and external bitching and backstabbing going about. It was nice to know I had girls who i could count on and call my sisters. Who held all my secrets and could keep their mouths shut. These girls were my inspiration, I counted on them in times of trouble and they would always be there no matter what. Until this day i am soo thankful they are in my life and even though we are miles away i know when i am back in Sydney we can all kick it as though i never left them. We supported each other through the HSC, studying everyday at Ilarias house or Campsie library with the boys...Each and every day was a challenged we helped one another and made sure each of us understood what we were doing before we entered each exam. Another person who brightened up my school days was
Lucinda, always mucking around n making jokes n getting into troublee for always talking. I remember we would sneak out of school and drive to macca's or wherever just to chillax or what not. Man those were the days... innocence was bliss and we were such a close knit of friends. Even though it has been 2 years or so since then it feels like only yesterday we were in our kilts, rolling up our socks and using a cream ribbon in our hair. I miss my girls for they are the ones who i can always count on and the ones who truly understand me. I miss you all and i love u =) x
Ahh, know how u feel! :) Love ur blog, girl! See u soon
