As my first year in college slowly draws to an end( only two more months to go), I have realised that i have lost something very important....
I have always had people in my life who didnt like me or couldnt stand me and I really didnt care about them
Then i came to college....
For the first time in my life everybody seemed to like me ( probably because they havent been exposed to my mean temper). The feeling gave me such a high. I was the favoured one in all my friend circles.
But i reacted very differently to this situation. Throughout school life i was very forthright about what i felt was correct and what wasnt. In college when you are liked by all it becomes very difficult to actually disagree with anyone. I mean the thought of getting my point across to somebody would mean hours of pondering.
It was as if i just couldnt be firm anymore . I would feel that one disagreement and nobody would like me anymore, my real side would be exposed.
Now i have realised the importance of having your opinion. I dont want to lose it. What i just need to learn is to calmly get my point across..after all they are my friends...

happy u realized dis...hav been observing it sum time nw...its gud 2 b liked by other ppl...it was as rare 4 me as 4 u..n v prolly landed up in similar situation in coll...but neva compromise urself...u ll not only lose ur opinion but also ur identity...
totally going thru the same situation here!
i dont know about being liked by all in my frend circles, but i have never got into any arguments in colg. thats coz i used to argue mostly with boys and such arguments have often been resolved by bishoom-bishooms. but now the yes-i-agree-with-you-and-even-if-i-dont-agree-i'll-not-show -it thing is getting really boring. all my temper is venting up inside me in the form of frustration. never know when i'll implode.
