Hello, cheese !!! Before u all read my blog, as usual I want to say that I’m not a native English speaker or an English expert so I’m sorry if you girls and boys found this blog is not interesting as you expect and sorry for any grammar mistakes that you found in here because I just want to share my opinion and story that might benefit others and not teaching English. 5555
Before I share about how I turned myself to be an extrovert( well actually not too extrovert), I want to tell you all about the real me a few years ago. Maybe some people will say that I am still the same as I was before but I’m actually a little bit different now. Like SERIOUSLY. So, I was actually an introvert person a long time ago. A girl who love quietness or more known as a ‘lone ranger’ 55555555. That ‘few years’ indicates my primary school’s life. When I said I’m a quiet girl, I’m actually YES ABSOLUTELY very quiet and not very known even among my classmates. From standard 1 to 4, I was in the fourth class which was the second worse in my school but I’m actually not that worse in study 5555.
Even though being an introvert, you don't have to feel bad because an introvert also has their own special ability. I always got first ranked during standard four so when I move to standard five, I was placed in the first class. You know how that feels? It was really shocking and scary because all friends I have( that ‘all’ word means a few ) was from the previous class and I don’t have any, LIKE ANY friend among those smart boys and girls. So, in that class, I was being really really introvert. I didn't speak to my classmates too much. Just speak out my name when they asked and speak one or two sentences when they speak to me. I’m not the one who will start the conversation. When other people talking, I will stay at my table doing my work. Because of that, I always feel lonely at school and took an action of skipping classes. I rather stay at home than come to school because I think there was no benefit, I don’t have friends to eat with during recess, don’t have friends to ask if I don’t understand something, so what for?? This action affects my study a little bit but I still can survive and even placed also in the first class during standard six. The introvert me still the same when I entering secondary school but I got more friends in Form 1 and 2.
FEBRUARY 2014. So, this was the time that I realized that I need to be more extrovert. First reason, I kept thinking that I need to be brave so I can easily get friends when I entering university. Second, this part is really cliche, because I’ve been crush to this one boy and I want him to notice me so I started to join a few debate competition and I even joined singing competition just to make sure that he noticed me hahahahahaha. This is why people kept saying love can totally change yourself 555. And finally, I think he noticed me( I THINK). From that time, I feel happier than I was before and those actions really help me to get more friends. And now, I’m already 19 years old and I really not regret any of my action those few years. I’m enjoying my university life now happily surrounded by many friends but sometimes I feel bad for some students that hardly find friends because I had felt what they feel and really want to help them but I don’t know how. So, here my advise. Dear boys and girls, BE BRAVE. I know it was hard for the first time but it will get easier someday. Just believe in yourself. BE CONFIDENT. No need to think what others think about you because you are the one who lived your life.XOXO
