Stop being ashamed of being smart.

Yes, I’m smart! Everyone tells me that! But to assume can sound a little bit “oh-how-amazing-I-am” thing. Then I noticed that actually I was ashamed of being smart. OH BOY! I didn’t like to feel that way! Then I’ve tried to look at this as “don’t be ashamed of being who you are” instead of “don’t be ashamed of being smart”. It’s kind of simple: if you’re smart, and you’re not ashamed of being who you are, so… YOU’VE DONE IT! :D

Once again, not a very good way of putting it, but what the hey. You know when you say or do something, and people give you that look….the ‘my god what a show-off’ look, or the ‘wow what a freak’ look. And then you find yourself apologising, when the only thing you did ‘wrong’ was to act in a vaguely intelligent manner…I’m getting kinda sick of that :P I’ve decided that I’m going to become more at one with my mind/intelligence/brain, and accept that I happen to be smart, and that I shouldn’t have to hide it. So there. :D
