1. I am jealous of people who can keep journals. I've tried before. I have tried oh so hard to diligently record everything that happened during my day. Here's the thing though, I would have trouble finding things I would want to record. I felt like most things that I said and did were of no consequence, this resulted in many journal entries that read something like this: "Oh hey, it's me again. Nothing much has really happened." Conversely, if something big did happen, I was afraid someone would read my journal and call me a drama queen. Or if I had a crush on someone I was also terrified someone would read about that and think I was weird for writing about this boy who didn't know I existed. I also may have developed this fear because I once read my sister's diary that was all about a boy she liked.
2. I am jealous of people who have confidence. How cool would it be to walk up to someone and say "Hi, I'm Molly." with a smile and no hint of nervousness in my voice. It would be AWESOME! Wait, hold up right? I can hear your thoughts being beamed to me as you read this: "Molly (or Sunny as some know me), you are NOT a shy person." Anyone who was in marching band with me is certainly thinking this. WRONG! I'm totally shy, most of the time I can fake it though. I almost never introduce myself first. It's a problem, and I'm sure it can lead to having a bubble of friends and not meeting new people, which is a shame because I bet there are some really cool people out there who I have not met yet. Let's fix this, yeah? Yeah.
