So, I have a very interesting story for this blog. Just imagine my friend Megan and I walking around her neighborhood, not particularly dressed nicely. We were just talking and laughing then all of a sudden we hear two cars coming up fast behind us. Of course both the cars were filled with boys and they have their windows down. But us, not knowing they were cute boys, Megan just had to scream "You guys are going to fast, it is a neighborhood for god sake!" We continued walking not expecting anything else to happen until we see the same two cars coming at us. Then, the first car's driver blew Megan a kiss and the second car's driver blew me a kiss. I was confused and shocked but Megan reached up and grabbed the kiss and brought it o her hart. That action made our day and gave us each a confidence boost.
Seeing your best friends get hurt is the worst thing ever, especially being hurt by a guy. What sucks is you know you can't do anything to stop it. Of course you can talk to her and everything but that really doesn't help the situation. All I can do is build up her confidence and just be there for her, listen to her and just understand her. So when this happens again, it will because some guys are dumb, her confidence won't falter.
Today is the day of my business presentation in Econ. I am surprisingly not that nervous. I think that we are very ready and I hope we won't choke. My group is aiming for better than a B. I just have to confident and believe that I am going to do okay.
Okay, so we did great! This was the best presentation that our group have ever done. It was an A and I am very proud. I was still marked down for being too quiet... But I will work on it. In the past, I have had troubles saying no. I always feel bad saying no to people who ask me something. Like in Econ with my group, people ask me to finish our projects and papers. I really have to stand up for myself and say no. Trust me, I will say no to any negative peer pressure. But just little stuff that causes me to work and stress is what I have to say no too.
Having overall confidence is good to have. But having confidence in yourself is very important. It's believing in yourself and having an ability to handle whatever situations that are presented. It means that you believe that you will succeed with anything that comes your way. Most teens have many problems with finding their self confidence, as do I. Remember to just think positive, speak your mind and encourage yourself. That is what I am going to do from now on to build my confidence up.
My birthday is coming up, April 17th for a matter of fact, and I am turning 16! Turning 16 is a big deal because you can get your license and finally drive without a parent. Well, driving gives me anxiety because it feels like I am always to close to everything. I just have to be confident in myself and not be over cautious. I gotta start practicing to build up my confidence.
Being in Florida, has made me feel great and happy. The weather is amazing and just being here boosts my confidence. I mean yeah, you have to wear shorts and swimsuits almost everyday but just enjoy yourself. I didn't care what people thought of me because I was having fun and being myself. Being tan is a confidence booster too. I mean... People are telling me that I didn't get that tan but I feel like I did! And I have tan lines to prove them!
I have been very confident this week. Spring Break is starting and I am going down to Florida. I have to be confident because I am with a different family. Also, I am not going to see my family for awhile so I have to be confident. I just have to enjoy my vacation and not worry or miss my family.
This year, I am going down to Tampa, Florida for spring break with my best friend Alexis. It is going to be a really fun time because her family is hilarious and this is only my second time going to Florida. The last time I went to Florida was when I was like 2 or 3 and I usually never do anything for spring break. But I am excited for it this year. Having confidence is a big one when you are wearing shorts, tanks and especially swimsuits. You should be confident with your body and not care what people think about you. I am going to keep my head held high and just not worry about what the other people think.
I really want to get a job as soon as I turn 16 and start driving. It is a way to get more money to spend and to learn new skills. I will definitely need to have confidence to get a job and to perform the job if it involves talking to people and helping them out. You need confidence either in a interview or even filling out an application. Hopefully my confidence builds as it gets closer to me getting a job.
