8 Things I've Learned This Year...

1. Graduating from school is easier than expected
2. Graduating from school also means, that you learn lots of things you'll never need again (and things I don't want to need again...)
3. Third thing about graduating from school: I learned many interesting things. Especially about the History of the English language, the Islam and Buddhism. I'm so glad that I took religion for my final oral exams...
4. It's impossible to write if nothing happens in your life
5. If you can't write, it's important to talk to someone
6. Discuss your problems with your friends! That's one reason why you have friends - if they are good friends you can talk with them about everything you want to tell them or need to tell them or want to tell them or things you don't want to talk about, but you have to talk about it, because it's good for you to talk about it even if you don't want to talk about it (yes, this is a weird and complicated construction of a sentence, but it was one of the most important things I learned this year)
   
7. Traveling makes me happy (okay, I already knew that...)
