If you think you're too shy and want to be a little bit braver, try the following. You can make it.

There's no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they'll understand you better. This also helps you feel freer in talks.

When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people have feelings too and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something good to you. Doesn't it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Get your attention(注意) elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. Don't waste(浪费) time worrying about your looks or whether (是否)people like you or not.

Each time after you say "hi" or smile at someone for the first time, say to yourself "I did it"! Or it could be something bigger, like buying yourself an ice cream.

Keep trying and one day you'll never be "shy" when you talk to others.
