Blog Entry: My self confidence.

Entry

Blog: THIS IS A BLOG. THE END. <3

My self confidence. As some of you know, I have had a rather low self confidence for at least a few years.

Today, I went into town wearing my rainbow leg warmers.
This may not seem like much but to me it was a big step towards being myself.

As soon as I walked in the shopping centre, a random girl laughed at me and decided to tell me that I shouldn't look like that and you know what? It didn't hurt at all.
Then a random person in a shop was like "I love your leg warmers! They must keep your legs so warm!!" Which made me smile.

Throughout the day random people looked at me like I was crazy. It didn't hurt. I just knew that they'd never be able to look good in the outfit I was wearing.

My self confidence is growing. I now feel like I'm able to wear my rainbow legwarmers to school and not give a fuck what the bullies say.

Tomorrow's school and you know what?
I'm looking forward to it.

Cause the same designer that made my legwarmers makes rainbow hatscarves.

That's awesome! Emoticon: Grin :D

I would wear a rainbow hat and pants Emoticon: Tongue :p I'm not the rainbow leg warmer type. But not because I don't think they're cool- more because if I put them on at school, I'd be tempted to dance in the middle of a crowd of people, like one of those 1980s work out videos! XD I'm just weird like that.
Possibly nuts :P

This made me smile so much =)

I love that you're gaining confidence and becoming more comfortable with being a bit more out of your shell. It's truly a beautiful thing to see in someone. =)

Even if every day isn't this good, knowing that days like this happen can make everything worth it. Stay strong, love. <3 =)

Certainly made me smile and still makes me smile that I'm coming out of my shell slowly but surely.
