CarolineQT2774 answered Thursday August 17 2006, 9:19 pm: First, take small steps, like saying "Hi" to people in the halls to become more outgoing. It's best to find a good friend who you can talk to at your sport so you can laugh, enjoy yourself and basically have a good time. Conversation starters work wonders.

All I can say is just talk when you're in groups, give your point of views, and don't be embarassed to do something spontaneous! Just always be yourself though, don't change for anyone.
LiSaxOBaBii answered Thursday August 17 2006, 7:58 pm: Don't force yourself to be someone else. I know where you're at. Maybe you're just soft spoken-always smile and have something to say to lift the spirits of others. People will admire you for that. Being loud just isn't your thing which is good because sometimes really loud people are obnoxious. lol [ LiSaxOBaBii's advice column | Ask LiSaxOBaBii A Question ]

mystical_breeze answered Thursday August 17 2006, 5:53 pm: It's not a bad thing to be shy, don't worry about that. When you meet someone new, give them a big smile and introduce yourself. Say random things to start conversations, and make them laugh. I say the word 'sexy' a lot (weird right?) but it makes people laugh and makes them comfortable. Talk about things you have interest in, and if you feel like you've said something dumb, don't think about it. People don't really care if you mess up, and if they find it funny for a second, they'll forget about it later. Just be yourself.
