So I haven't really told you much about who I am. Well am alishya, 18 and study Fashion Business at Glasgow Caledonian University. Not really that intelligent but for some fluke reason and well going a little psychotic at revision time, I managed to secure my place at uni.
So I moved to Glasgow in September 2010, only being 17 and well lets just say not very house trained, ( in the sense of washing, ironing the usual domestic goddess traits not the toliet department like a pet) so moving alone to a big city was daunting! To be honest coming from the very small village of Aviemore I never thought I would miss it, I imagined that I would never look back, that life in the city would be perfect. Well its far from it, I do miss Aviemore and I miss the people.
So bringing me on to the title of todays blog, 'The important things.' After my 7 months of city life and being snatched away from my family and friends, (snatched being a little over exaggerated) I realise that they are the important things in life.
Of course there is my Mum and little sister Chelsea, these two characters bigger than life, who I never imagined I would miss this much, those stupid arguements about not doing the dishes and wearing her clothes, I miss those! But on the bright side, this separation that has been strange on all of us has made us much more closer than ever before, and frankly I cant wait to move home for the summer so we can bond, argue and well probably be pulling each others hair out!
I have the most wonderful friends in the WORLD! I dont care if you the reader think yours are better because theyre not! (Rather violent but am trying to make a point!) I always thought that going to university you would meet loads of new people and make lots of friends instantly, and it would be amazing, like they make it look in the perspectus. Not that I havent got a fabulous group of people on my course that are the funniest, most interesting, some a little strange people I can be thankful to be sharing the next 4 years with; but well its just not the same. I remember the most difficult bit for me was nobody laughing at me when I fell or did that lisp thing by acciedent which I know at home they would be ripping the piss for hours, I wanted people to take the mick out of me. Some of you probably think its a strange thing to miss but to me it wasn't. I miss the gereral chat about nothing, and always having somebody to do something with, even if it was walking down the street or meeting for a fag! I love my friends always, and what I've learnt is well they're not replacable, you may go on to make new friends but the ones you hold closest do your heart will never be recycled. ;)
AHHHH did i mention am moving home for 5 months in 6 DAYS!!
Your friends and family are the people that make life happy, that make you smile and dry your tears. Its them that you can always rely on to be there when you need them always ready to pick you up when you fall. Some may not appreciate them, well I can truthfully say that I didn't not until you dont have them by your side and thats when it falls in to place whats really important!
With Love
Alishya.
