Wattpad

So this may entirely throw you off, or a ton of you may not even care, but my absolute favorite app is Wattpad (although it's actually a site too). For those of you who live under a digital rock (jk! maybe?) it's an app where people post stories or poems or rants and it's just a beautiful, beautiful place where creative minds get to join together and rejoice in each other's creativity.

I am writing a story on there tentatively titled Seemingly Famous, and I have a couple parts up already. I update every Friday or Saturday and alright I'll shut up 'cause let's be honest... self promo everywhere. Although, if you're interested enough, the summary is down below!

Averie Wyld is your average high school student, even if she is a little on the clumsy and awkward side, and a blogger loved by thousands. She has no clue what she wants to do with her life (what teenager does?) and is absolutely terrified of social interactions (again, what sane teenager isn't?). When one YouTube video suddenly gets her in a whole new spotlight, Rie decides to start making videos full time along with her blog. She doesn't bet on new friends, hate from total strangers, finding her passion, and even falling in love along the way. And what happens when Miss Student Council President (aka the queen of gossip) stumbles across her channel? A whole lot of running, avoiding, and corn dog fights, that's what.

If you like the sound of that then definitely be sure to check it out! Download Wattpad from the App store or check out the site, then search for Seemingly Famous. Hope you'll check it out!

Enjoy!

Being An Introvert

So chances are you're one of two types of people, an introvert or an extrovert. I myself am an introvert and just really wanted to share some things that I think need to be said about introverts in general as I often, often, OFTEN, have these issues, whether people realize it or not, and sometimes these situations can hurt.

I'm okay. Really.

I know my face always looks serious, and that I usually look a little ticked off, but this is my face! Like, genuinely, I feel fine, I'm okay, this is just my normal face. I always have this problem when people are talking to me and I'm either deep in thought or just listening, and they as if I'm alright but then won't except that I'm fine as an answer.

Hanging out with lots of people (especially if I don't know them) can be hard.

I am super shy and extremely scared of what people think of me, so talking to more than 2 or 3 people that I don't know very well can be really hard. Yes, I really, really want to hang out with you, and I really want you to invite me to hang out again, it's just that I'm typically quiet. I do like you, and your friends, I'm just an extremely quiet person.

I truly need my alone time.
I know that sometimes people think that when I say I need alone time, that I really need to be away from them and that I'm just making excuses for myself. But it's honestly not true! I cant speak for every introvert out there, but I need some time just for myself to recharge and kind of calm down from a day at school or work or even at the mall. If I tell you I need alone time, I'm either stressing, not feeling up to social interactions, or just want to be alone for a bit. It's not your fault, it's just that I get an urge to be alone.

Pushing me to talk to someone won't usually work.
Although sometimes this actually goes great, and can make me feel so much better, it doesn't always. Asking anyone a question, especially if it's for help, can be super hard because I don't want to seem stupid, I don't want to bother them, or I don't know how to make the words come out. Please realize that I'm naturally awkward at some things, just like you, and that they're not the same thing for both of us. For me, talking to someone I don't know well can be stressful. I can feel like what I'm saying is uninteresting or borderline stupid, and I'll have a moment of regret right after speaking, especially if no one replies to what I just said. It's not always how I should feel, and I know most do care what I say, it's just something I can't control.

So from all of us introverts here, we do love you! We love your friends, we love being with you! We don't know what to do without you, even if we don't express it well, so please don't leave us.

I hope at least some of you agree with this, and don't just think I'm a total weirdo! Anyway I kind of wanted to write this after being asked how it's hard for me to talk to people or be social, and my answer was that I'm an introvert. They didn't really understand that not all people are extroverts, so I gave them this explanation, but in a smaller form. Anywho, I hope you all enjoyed!
