NLP, Tumblr and To Do List 03

Hi there,

NLP module 1 complete. Yay!

I loved it, as I knew I would and I'm now feeling the effects of a large burst of concentrated optimism. I'm happy to be happy.

My Tumblr page is clearing of emo inspires quotes and gothic artwork to be replaced with inspiring quotes and artwork that would have driven me mad only a few weeks ago. I am happy to say that I know feel actually positive!

I am alone in these feelings it seems because the rest of my family carry on grumbling like the traditional British adults they were raised to be. Everyone is making an effort though and soon I will convert the whole world to feeling good about themselves... (insert evil cackle of your own choosing here)

Politics is depressing though, for me at least. (and every other poor person and anyone with a conscience.) As I was saying...

I respect other peoples opinions to the opposite but please, please double check your facts. :)

Back to the optimism.

The depression/ bad feelings/ down phase/ whatever is slipping away slowly but surely to reveal... a blank canvas, a fresh page to doodle on. I hit rock bottom for a moment there and now I'm heading up.
So I highly recommend reinventing yourself sometimes. It just needs to be done at least once in your life.

I also have another To Do List entry completed, sort of. I died my hair black (not blue) but for me it was just as big and important so I am crossing that off the list.

thank you universe for the support and I will write again soon.

bye.

Adventure Time (at last)

Hi there,

so for a while now I have been excited about my course and the adventure it will bring to my life, and today, finally, I will be leaving to go to Gloucester to study NLP.

I am so happy!

After a year of on and off depressive feelings and bad moods lasting months at a time I am feeling hopeful and much better.

I would make an acceptance speech but I have never been good at public speaking. I am happy to accept this new positivity though.

I want to thank my wonderful family who have helped me through these hard times and who have patiently listened when I have talked. I want to thank my brother who has always been happy (because nine year olds tend to be) My mum who always lets me talk, and my dad who always makes sure I know I can talk. I want to thank my two younger sisters who have surprised me by becoming my support system and my best friends. I no longer see them as 'little' sisters, they are simply 'sisters' and they are wonderful (as I'm sure they already know) but surprisingly, most of all I want to thank Deepak Chopra, Kate Bush, Joni Mitchell, Sam Smith, Alice Cooper and Fall out boy for being so supportive through my headphones and my books all this time. You have all made such a difference and there are so many more people I haven't mentioned but I appreciate so much as well.
thank you.

So now I embark on my journey of self discovery, self improvement and connection with other people and I have only one thing to say.

Allons y mutherf****er!

bye.
