A Fresh Start

This fresh start changed my life for the better.

A Fresh Start
Personal

Getting the chance to have a fresh start is probably one of the best things in the world. I honestly needed one. God gave me the chance to have one and I'm so blessed and so thankful that He did.

I started going to a new school this year and it was truly one of the best things that has ever happened to me. When I first started I was scared and nervous for the first couple of weeks. Everyone was so nice and had open arms though, and I have never met people like that before in my life.

I'll be the first to tell you that it's not easy starting a new school when you don't know anyone. You really just don't know what to expect. It's hard trying to make new friends. I have always been a really outgoing person, but sometimes it's hard to be outgoing when all you really want to be is shy. You just have to know that this is the place you need to be.

If I didn't get this chance at a fresh start, I honestly think my life would be falling into pieces. I am so grateful for the people who have come into my life these past few months, and of course, I'm thankful for you, mom. I'm always thankful for you.

These people have made a big impact on my life, even though I've only known them for a few months. I feel like I have known them my whole life. They make me feel that way. I could not have asked God to bring better people into my life than the ones I have now.

A fresh start is letting go of the past and making peace with your demons. It is a chance to make your future the best you can make it. By starting with a fresh start, you could change the rest of your life.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
