It's strange to reflect back on how I used to be. Just a few months ago I was completely different. Hell, I've changed a lot from who I was last week. Looking back, it's almost shameful of what I used to be like. Such a child, such a fool...it'd be more suitable to describe me as a sophomore back then, rather than the freshman I am now. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a fool now. I'm just more conscious of it than I was then. There's always more to learn, both about others and about yourself. Anyone who thinks or acts like they know everything is only a living reminder of that. Living with a perfect example of such has enabled me to learn that lesson very well.
The physical changes aren't so important, though they are happening as well. People place way too much importance on that stuff. It's almost humorous to think about...
How I used to be...it's kinda scary. If the me of today met the me of last year, I don't think they'd get along very well.

Righto, Socrates.
"I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance."
That's what sets people like us apart.
Well whatever change you've had, be happy you didn't change into a bad person. And nothing really changes who you are. It's not like your name is suddenly Ray Jones or anything, you're still that cool Will Tangney dude.
People just need to adjust to changes because nothing changes the fact that you change. What matters is how you use your new knowledge and self-consciousness. It's good that you notice change, but always think of it as a blessing, not a curse. You never change your true self, tho, and thats what makes changes a beauty.
