Be less shy

for me is going to be college.That’s where I shall prove to myself that I’m not that shy anymore and that I’m less self conscious.
It’s really a great way to meet new people and make some new friends,since everyone is new there and nobody knows nobody,so there’s a more friendly atmosphere because everybody wants to get along with each other and make friends.
But I believe that for me,the real challenge is not talking to complete strangers,but finding people with who I can communicate and be my true self.
See,I’m a rock chick I may say,and I find it absolutely impossible to really bond and communicate with somebody who,for instance, listens to rap,pop or r’n’b music.It’s just that we share different views and opinions.
Yep,because I trully believe that the genre or whatever you want to call it of music one likes to listen to,makes a major difference of how one perceives the world around them.
For me,music taste makes a major difference.
But it’s not like I couldn’t get along with someone who listens to a different kind of music than me,but still has an amazing personality.Personality is definately number 1 priority,so perhaps I should be a little more open to the possibility of meeting people that may listen to different type of music,but still look at life kinda like I do…

There’s really nothing wrong in being a little shy.I actually believe that people who tend to be a little shy, are usually the ones who do have something interesting to say when they open their mouth.At least the shy people that I’ve come across so far.
I believe that a little bit os shyness,is good to have.
People who try hard to be the center of attention and come up to me and talk to me as if they have known me for years really put me off and annoy me.
I’m less shy since I fisrt took up this goal,but I’m not a faker or more-outgoing-than-thou.
I’m still me,but with a little less fear of talking to people that I don’t know well.
I just want to tell to all of my shy friends out there that being shy is not bad.And I’m saying this as someone who had a literal fear of talking to strangers or going to places I did not know.People always criticised my shyness as if it was the most terrible sin and flaw.And they made me feel so bad about who I was,that it made me even more self conscious.thus ending up being ever more shy than I was before!And it was just a vicious circle.
And I needed to break this circle.And I started doing so by realising that there’s really no point of being ashamed and embarassed to talk to others,since we are all people.And I was taking baby steps,day after day.
I’m proud of the progress I’ve made regarding this goal,because it was one of my biggest problems,since I felt that I couldn’t express the beauty of my soul and of my personality,because my irrational shyness held me back.
I’m really close to crossing this off,and I feel more peaceful knowing that my shy self cannot stop me from enjoying my life.

Since I started to work,I noticed I became less shy and less self conscious,and it feels great!
At work,I have to talk to people I don’t know and I believe this is what helped me in becoming less shy.
I feel more open,more positive and more happy.
For instance,5 months ago I would have never left my chair at the coffee house to get up and grab a nupkin or a straw!I thought that everyone would stare at me and judge me!
I know,it sounds a little too much to be real,but trust me,I wouldn’t do it!
Now,I feel less intimidated of other people and I’m not afraid to speak to them.
This is major progress for me,to come out of my shell and start living the way I want to.

When I’m shy,I open my mouth and say really stupid things.
I can’t even look other people in the eye if I just met them.
I think my situation is clinical.xD

I can’t say that I’ve completed this goal per se,but I think that I’m doing some progress here.Really,sometimes I don’t know what’s getting into me.When I’m around people I’m very open and fun.I know this is a good thing,but sometimes,I wonder where did the old me go (far away I hope)?

i think i’m on a good way!i just talk and act relaxed and cool and not neurotic,when strangers talk to me.i try to get to know them better,make them laugh,be calm and funny…ah,it’s not my type to be outgoing and all,but being extremely shy isn’t either.so,i’m somewhere between these two…and i feel ok.afterall,i think it’s plain lame to be outgoing just to be popular and make friends with who you just hung out and talk about … nothing!i want more than that.i want something real,something with meaning.cause i think that those oh-look-at-me-i’m-outgoing-and-popular kinda guys,are fools!and they don’t care about other people’s feelings.why should they?they’re so selfish and consentrated to their goal(make “friends”)...

i’d rather kill myself right now,than become one of them!

i’m usually shy when i don’t know what reaction the thing that i’m thinking about saying will cause to others or how they’ll take it.I’m extremely shy when i’m with a boy!I don’t know what to say,so i end up sayng bullshit and offending himand pissing him off(how do i do that???!!!!).
I just think it would be better for my social life to be more out going and all,cause since i’m shy,i can’t make the first move or make friends easily!
H-E-L-P!
I will probably end up alone and miserable!I’m too close to achiving that!Boo-hoo…
