They Say I Say Im Shy

Improved Essays
I hate people saying I’m shy. I don’t like public speaking, that’s so annoying. I like to talk with my friends, but that doesn’t mean I like to speak in front of all the people that I don’t know. Actually, people who say I’m shy are right because I don’t talk to strangers. I’m tired of hearing and answering those stupid questions and advices, like “why don’t you talk?” or “don’t be shy.” Here’s my answer: because I’m shy and I don’t talk to strangers, sorry. I like to be alone sometimes, but I feel lonely easily, especially when there are many people surrounding around me.
I’m also a quiet person, but that doesn’t mean I don’t swear. I love to swear, and I swear everyday. I’m very polite and nice since I don’t swear to someone I don’t know.

    There has been a request from several people to remove books from the curriculum such as Huckleberry Finn and Catcher in the Rye due to some inappropriate language. Although I am aware that foul language is not acceptable inside the walls of high schools, I cannot assist with that decision. Many people out in the real world use that language on TV shows and movies, social media, with friends and family, and definitely in numerous books! A couple of books with a few choice words should not harm anyone. Most likely, the high school students will already recognize all of them.…

    When asked to define myself in one paper, I find it hard to show the details that I want to in the right light. When asked about my future after high school, I also have a hard time describing everything I want to get done because there are far too many things to name. The quote “ _____” (i want to be everyone and do everything and there isn’t enough life to do it all in) describes me to a tee, and I believe this college is the place I could do this in. Being a shy person for most of my life, many things were difficult for me. Specifically, last summer I had the opportunity for a summer job.…

    On a typical Wednesday night in Bloomington, a couple of my old friends from high school, Kasandra Rieckers, Brycelyn Ruddick, and Kourtney Branaman, and I went to the IU volleyball game against Purdue. After the game, we went back to Kasandra and Brycelyn’s dorm room to talk about our Halloween costumes. The conversations of people that have known each other for a long time and see each other often will vary a lot from the conversations of people that do not see each other as often. These field notes will highlight the particular tendencies and patterns in conversation that are typical between my friends, from high school that came to IU, and I.…

    Society tells us that talking to yourself period, let alone in public, is not acceptable. It is associated with psychosis, dementia, and many other mental illnesses. My experiment shows that deviance is a combination of the action of the deviant person as well as the reaction of the audience. People appear to talk to themselves all the time as earpieces to cell phones get smaller and smaller with the technological breakthroughs that we see. My behavior was acceptable until people saw that there was no earpiece.…

    After immigrating to the United States, with virtually no English skills, I was lonely. I recall trying to talk with girls at school and not even being able to share the simplest of stories with them. My every attempt to build friendships failed. As a social person, who is invigorated by conversation, this was crushing. I could not even share similar experiences with them due to the financial struggles my immigrant family faced.…

    The experience that I would use to display all of these personal qualities would be my first semester at Miami University. I chose this experience because it has taught me to become comfortable within the uncomfortable and create an environment where I am able to adapt quickly to my surroundings. My first semester at college has made me become more independent, willing to push outside of my comfort zones, open-minded, and able to persevere through isolation. Throughout my first semester at Miami University, I’ve learned to become more independent, through most of the daily responsibilities that I hold.…

Throughout my week, I would write in my Interpersonal Communication Journal about all of the different types of conversations I came across. Not one conversation was the same. They were all about different topics. Each journal entry I would write, however, had all different aspects to them.…

    In Chapter One of Marriage and Family: The Quest for Intimacy, we are introduced to various concepts, facts, and misconceptions concerning the experiences one may have when raising a family or living their life with another human being. Personally, there was plenty of information to learn and discover in this chapter, but if I had to narrow it down to three things that I found most interesting, I believe I would say that I was most fascinated when I had read about loneliness, and the myth concerning having children for an increase in marital satisfaction. As a child, I was very shy in school and I did my best to stay out of everyone’s way. Granted, Praise the Lord that I had a wonderful family and church to lean on, because if I hadn’t,…

    Gardening was a ‘forced’ hobby for a good portion of my childhood. Since elementary school, I worked with my dad in our back yard; I would dig holes, carry bags of manure, and plant flowers and trees. I complained that it would be easier to go to the store and buy a bag of blackberries instead of toiling in the sun for hours to achieve the same thing. I never imagined that I’d end up gardening for fun. Every year, my brother and I would collect the fruits of our labor; every year, I’d appreciate my efforts more and more.…

    but I was still incredibly shy, solo and ground presentations or speeches at school gave me anxiety. I opted out of a lot of opportunities because of how shy I was and that was very hard to deal with now that I’m older and I now wish I could go back and attack those opportunities I missed out on. Present day I am still shy but not as bad as it was in middle school and before that, if anything I loved growing up shy even if I didn’t get to experience some things because I wouldn’t be who I am if I hadn’t grown up being so shy. It is a personality trait that I will cherish because even though it took some things away from me it gave me a lot more…
