Conversation Hearts are adding some Twilight inspired phrases this year. I had no idea that you were shy. You don't come across that way at all.
Yes, I am. It's something I battle in all social situations. In large groups it can be debilitating. I guess I am getting good at hiding it and/or learning social techniques that make it less obvious. I guess that's one of the reasons I love Scott ~ he's my polar opposite in this area. Most times, my shyness is seen as stuck-up, snobbish, dim (?, yes I've heard that), or people just think I am a little off :o) ...high school was difficult for me, especially as a "new girl" each year.
I loved reading this you stuck up (just kidding!!!) seriously I read it 3 times! I have considered doing this but I can't put that much of me out there...have you seen the 100 things trend on the blogs? Your 25 were much better than those!
Thanks for sharing. and I second M and R I did not know you were shy...guess I just shoved myself in your face and you had no choice but to not be shy with me...I have a little of Scott's personality I think!
PS, I think you are wearing your ugly sweater? Maybe I am wrong and if so MY BAD
And still loves you!!!!!!
