Wow, the last entry I wrote about this was a year ago. SO much has happened since then. But it’s just within the last month that the most drastic changes have taken place. I’ve met a lot of wonderful people, friends that I really feel comfortable talking to. And it’s made it so much easier to talk to other people too. I can actually hold up my end of the conversation now. I even start conversations now! I’m still not talkative, but that’s just me. When I talk to people, there’s no more of the anxiety of ‘I should be saying more; they’ll think I dislike them; they’ll think I’m boring or weird.” I’m finally free of that. And it seems to get easier everyday, and I’m always glad to find a chance to exercise and build up my conversation skills, which I lacked for so long.

So, finally completed, and I feel great about it!
