Hi! I'm PurplePudgyPenguin and I-! ... My name is a mouthful, and PPP sounds funny. Sounds like peepee with an extra pee in there. t hehe, pee...
Sorry! Anyways, I'll be your advice giver today! Now, down to business.. *clears throat all professionally*
You completely remind me of me. I'm always shy around new people. I tend to look down when they talk to me, and I'm never one to add my opinion. In this case, I really need to listen up too (even though I don't mind the shygirl label, people leave you at peace a whole lot more ^.^). It sounds like you just need to open up a bit more. When meeting a new person, don't just give them a simple 'hi' or 'how are you?' ask them more complex questions. Act like you're really curious about them. Ask them their age, if not obvious or informed previously, or where they come from. Note: Don't ask them these things if you've already been told them. There are other questions out there to pick from. Just open up around people more. But as previously stated, don't overdo it so you're not you. Giving up your behavior and the way you act and even your posture can change what makes you you. Be careful not to get hyper or anything, I've ruined my chances with a couple people because I was hyped up on like 20 nerd's ropes and laffy taffys. *Nods*
That's honestly the best I can do for you right now. I'm in a brainfart stage. I'm sorry if the advice I've given to you hasn't been of your liking and/or approval. You've got a bunch of others to choose from. Remember advice is just an opinion and suggestion hybrid. Something I like to call a suggion! Sounds like a fish... t hehe. But anyways, there are other AGs out there who would love to help you out. I do hope I provided some assistance in your problem. Take care!
Luvs,
~PPP~

I like that you try to be yourself.
:)
If you want to stand out and quit being shy, just voice your opinion whenever you can.
Talk about music or movies. Tell some jokes.
If that doesn't work, it's all good.
Most boys/girls I know really like shy people.

If you're about to meet some new people, you have to be confident in yourself. You have to come in the room like you have no care in the world, and people will notice that too. Don't pick at your fingernails or look at the ground, just jump into the conversation and add anything that you can connect to. If you can't connect to anything, say something random like "God, love your bracelet... did you get that at the (so and so) Mall? I could have sworn i saw one just like that in (so-and-so) Store. I don't like that store that much, but that bracelet caught my eye as soon as I passed the window.' Be as talkative as you can, even if it's just a bunch of details. Ask a lot of questions too. People love to talk about themselves. But DON'T BE SOMEONE YOU'RE NOT. Stick to yourself because that will a mess.
That pretty much sums it up. Now get out there!

Let the new people see you being friendly and chatty with people you do know, then talk to them when you're with one of your mates. Don't ask them questions but let them join in and soon you'll be chatting.
I was once in your situation, and trust me, it works.
