i hate being shy Mood
Thursday, June 26, 2008

So i've been a cashier for 10 years (since i was 15) and i've had customers in my face screaming at me and just letting me know what they think. I don't think there is a reason for MOST of those situations however...there are times when I wish I had whatever they have. The gumption to stand up for myself and say whats on my mind. I was raised to just keep the peace and back down. I was raised to just shy away from it and don't start trouble. I hate it and i want it to stop! i hate being shy and if i want to say something I wanna be able to say it and not be shy and worry about whether or not i'm hurting feelings. i have got to get the guts to for this! not to be rude...but to have STRENGTH!

    Theres a differance in standing up for yourself and being a bitch. Just try and say things in a nice way but get ur point across. You dont' have to yell and stuff but if someone says (and this is just a random example) "your hair sucks" u could say "you have a right to your opinion but if its hurtful you should keep it to yourself around me"
