Changes
Over the course of our two month vacation I changed my attitude and my beliefs. A good friend of mine and I had an argument that caused me to change my perspective on many situations. we argued about how I constantly changed around different people at different times, and how I just couldn't be myself. I was changing sub-consciously because I felt it was normal to change say when you're with family and friends. I realized that it is normal but to a certain extent. It becomes bad to change around people when you are not able to express who you truly are just to fit in. That is exactly what I was doing. This argument was good for me because it opened my eyes and help me realize that people who don't except me for who and what I am are not worth my time. My friend was there for me and after our small argument we still carry on a relationship. It changed me because now I am myself when and wherever and I like that more, and the rest of my friends that truly know me also like it more.

You are very lucky to have a good friend who is willing to be so honest with you. Likewise, you have displayed your ability to be a good friend in accepting and analyzing her advice.
Again, like many of the changes other wrote about, yours is one where you are learning fine nuances about who are. We do change in different situations, but it is good to know the essence of who you are and to let that shine in all situations.
