Ok, so you may or may not know that my blog ‘title’ includes the word shy. Most people, if they’re shy, are shy in every aspect of their life. Not me. I’m really weird. I don’t get shy talking in front of crowds, or while I’m playing sports, or when talking to strangers. I can’tContinue reading “I’m A Weird Sort Of Shy”

Happy, Happy, Happy
I really don’t understand my brain. How can I go from the lowest point of my life (self-deprecation, self harm etc, read my posts titled Going Down and Nothing Really Matters)to where I am now, which is…almost HAPPY.

So it may not come as any surprise that I really dread parties, or even going out anywhere where there will beContinue reading “The Peril of Parties”
Music vs. People
Most people quite like music, of one sort or another. The difference between them, and me, is the amount that we like music. I love music. Like, I really love music. I can’t play any instruments, and my singing angers people(not a jealous anger, more like an anger that fills them with dread), but withContinue reading “Music vs. People”
My ACTUAL First Post – Phone Calling
My life often hits me with weird encounters, and strange abnormalities within my own psyche. My fear of calling people on the phone is one of those. There’s just something about dialing the number of someone and hearing it beep agonizingly until the phone is picked up at the other end. And then I haveContinue reading “My ACTUAL First Post – Phone Calling”
