Bah. Why do I have to get so nervous about talking to new people? I really hate it. I mean, I know it's illogical for me to get so nervous, but I do, and then I start worrying even more about how I'll come off. Because, y'know, I'd really like people I meet to think of me as a confident and capable person, since I usually am. But if I can't think of anything to say, or if I say something really stupid, or if I get all gross and sweaty from nerves... I dunno. It's irrational. But it happens anyway. And I hate it. So many of my friends (seem to) think nothing of going up to a person and introducing themselves and starting a conversation, but I always have trouble doing it. I want rehearsal time, which isn't really available that much in life.
Argh.
Argh.
