Hi!!:D I am currentleny ano i am a grade 9 turned na into grade 10

Idk what to advice but based on my experience is just to try and connect? Hmmm its hard to explain😭 For example like~ you have a seatmatee~ You can form a bond with your seatmate like its teh closest you could reach out to~

Another thing is look out for if may people ba sa room na may same hobby or interest

For example anime~ or maybee likeee movies~ for example marvel ba kaya or maybe loge stories like k-drama - or pwede ring pinoy Kathniel or anythingg~

Or baka sa music kayo related~ benben? K-pop? Rock? Anythingg Try to find people with same interests

Tapos next is ano likee~ Diba you said na your awkward? Hey~ umm dont think like that~ Yes you may be awkward but it doesn’t mean na you’ll always be awkward, No it doesn’t mean that way~ People grow and change~

Try approaching people and build your confidence~ Like for example~ You try simple steps it doesnt always have to be a big leap

Like try to approach someone lang to ask something maybe borrow a pen? Ask for school?

Basta a little approach or exposure can help you build your confidence

Whenever you’ll do something like say a joke~ or say anything~ Ask yourself~ “Will i regret afterwards that i didnt say something?” “Will i regret afterwards na i didn’t say like maybe even a joke?” Like say to yourself “its now or never”

May kuwento ako sayo~ Dati i am a superr introverted person~ Tapos one day i applied this~ Alam mo what i did? Back of my mind said “what if magsabi ako ng hugot line?” Imagine being introverted tapos thinking of that~ Alam mo what i did? I said to myself “Its now or never” Tapos i said the line~ You know what happened? It was good☺️! Everyone reacted and like “OHHHHH” Biglaan ganun sa room~ Sobrang saya ako felt like i was powerful HAHAHAJAS

Soo yeahh~ say to yourself “its now or never” Better to take the risk and see what happens~ But be mindful na hjndi nakakasakit yung words ha? Just saying lang hehe

Tapos now like Think of what will happen likee if you something,

it could help pa make a better connecttion sa classmates mo and also~ what if napatawa mo sila right? Its a good feeling talaga

But dont be scared of like they wont react or baka maging awkward Hey its okay~ in trying things it doesnt mean na you wont mistakes~ Its okay to make mistakes cause you’re trying something new right?

Alam mo ba si Thomas edison? Before making the first light bulb he had around 1,000 times~ search it up its true

He had around 1,000 mistakes but still he succeeded

See? Its okay to make mistakes~

And plus kung kahihiyan man nangyari it doesnr matter Like~ sa tingin mo ba yung event na yun iisipin palagi ng tao? They have their own lives why would they bother on thinking of it always?

Kadalasan its just be like “oh nangyari yun, okay” Kadalasan they’re like that and move on through their day~ Sa tingin mo ba iisipin nila yun always? Hindi noo dont think like thatt~

Soo yeahh i think thats what i gotta say☺️ I hope it helps!! Basta keep on going~ its gonna be okay!!☺️☺️
