Confedience

[-Soph-]

I was like this in yr7ish and before that.

You just eventally come out of your shell, You've just got to learn not to care what people think of you..
Make your presence known.. But in a good way obviously.
Try to talk more to people.

Basically alot of people arent really confident.
They fake it. Lol I do just pretend you incharge of the situation.
If you really shy take it slow, Sit next to some random person in class
or talk to someone at the bus stop.
Every little bit helps

Goodluck!

I used to be fairly shy compared to the people I doss with but im starting to get alot more confident. I just stopped caring about what people say and just get on with thing and speak your mind, but didn't go over the top :]

I doubt that'd help, but all suggestions are welcome I guess... :rolleyes:

The only real way you can become 'confident', is just by gradually coming out of your shell. It isn't an overnight thing, and you don't suddenly just wake up one morning confident.

Exactly. I'm just starting to come out of my shell now, because I'm starting to get older etc.

Do somthing exseedingly random, come in dressed in a stupidly over the top costume on a chairty day, or somthing. Once yourve done something like that you dont realy have much of an exsuse to be shy anymore :p

Drama, Drama, Drama!! It brings you right of your shell. Especially when you think, most of the people who you preform infront of you won't know you, So if you did anything wrong. They're not likely to tease you for it?

In year 7 i was like OMG i cant preform infront of my form, now i've preformed infront of the whole school, year 11's parents/family. All the teachers, which came to about 1800 people. and i'm in year 10. It took me about 3 years, so it's not an overnight thing :-P

Be a LITTLE bit naughty at school, and have a laugh with the people around you. But don't turn it into a habbit.

I HATE drama! I get all nervous. Last week, we had to learn a line something like 'Tis is art though' blah blah, I didn't learn it properly. So I got my book, which had the words and focused! When it was my turn, I remembered all of it! But I guess that was ok. Then, we done a story thing, so if someone throws a ball, you say 'It was a summery day and all of a sudden..' then you pass it to another person then you sit down once you've had your go. Miss told me to start first, lol. So I said 2 lines, forgot something like 'It was a nice morning..' and then People started pointing at me, but I didn't care. You see, since primary school, Whenever in class a teacher asks me something like 'What is 103 x 29' I go red, and I say nothing. Nothing, at all. Then everyone laughs and go 'SHE IZ GOING RED!!!!1!!!11' I get frustated sometimes, but now I hardly go red, so I think I am improving something.

I do have a laugh with people!

Thanks for all your comments! On thursday (2 days ago) I started weirdly talking to my friends! All my friends started saying 'Oh my god. Lauren is talking!' and then there like 'yeah, I spoke to her earlier!' I felt really proud of myself, I was achieving something, and now on I carried on talking. So next week I am talking more! Thanks guys, and if you have any comments, please say!
