I am usually quiet and reserved, which causes people to think that I am standoffish, but I am an observer. I usually listen more than I speak. I love to listen to people, it helps me retain information efficiently. I will occasionally add my input in a conversation, when I am really interested. I can admit that I do not like to participate in class discussions, but I will if there is a participation grade. The funny thing is that my freshman year of high school, I had a class where participation was required, and I got 70% in participation category.  I never raised my hand, so my teacher would constantly pick on me to answer questions. That would make me annoyed, because sometimes I did not know the answer! Now that I look back to those days, I am just glad that my teacher wanted to help my grade out. I would not consider myself shy. I was really shy in elementary school, and liked to read a lot, but as I began junior high I became confident.  I felt that as I grew up, I became comfortable and talking to my peers became an easy thing. I met the shyest girl in high school. If you compared me to her, I would be extremely talkative and outgoing. She constantly looked down when people talked to her,  and she would have a very quiet soft voice. She sat right next to me, and when I talked to her I found out she was a sweet person! She was even voted to be the shyest girl on senior mosts in our high school yearbook. I think that shy people are really interesting people, they just do not express themselves like other people. I am an easygoing person, and willing to help people I know and even strangers. Today an elderly lady came towards me, and asked me to read what size was on the pajama set she was buying. "Is it medium?" she quickly added before I could even tell her what it said. "No, it is  size large" I replied. The print on the tag was extremely small, so I understood why she was having issues. She said thanks and then added that she couldn't see anything, so she was glad that I helped her. I wrote this type of  blog because I realized that I usually do not write about myself, I just write about things that interest me.
