Y'know... a year ago I would've laughed if someone called me timid. Now, though... I realize I was timid. I was always very careful about what I said, what emotions I should show, how I should approach things. If I couldn't find a good way to say or approach something, I wouldn't say it. If I thought showing an emotion would be perceived wrong, I wouldn't show it. I really kind've locked myself into a box and tried to be what I thought was best for the situation. I'm not entirely sure what or who pulled me out of it, or if was a combination of events and people at the end of last year and the beginning of this one, but I'm really starting to become my own person. I actually voice my concerns about something, instead of worrying to myself and keeping quiet. I'm less likely to do something just cos a friend asked me to do it. I'm willing to speak my mind about something. It's quite liberating, really. =) I'm trying to not let these changes get in the way of friendships but, I'm not the same person I was a year ago. That's really all there is to it.
