When I was in College, I prefer not to talk, not to communicate or even not to smile. Why? because I always thought I am the ugliest among my classmates. I am the ignorant and dullest of them because I came from the province. My color is more like a burnt popcorn and they are as clear and neat as paper. I used to go around myself, eat my lunch alone in the corner of the room. No one ask me why I am like that, maybe because they feel pity on me or maybe they just talked about me when I am not around. But I appreciated their silence.
During class hours, I used to be at the back of everybody because I am scared to be called by my teachers. I am afraid of answering their questions because of my english. I cant speak english well. And I totally have stage fright when I started talking and the worst it will end up losing my idea and just standing there and dont know what to do.. HAHAY what a bad life!!!
One time during our Math class, even how terror my teacher is, even how afraid I am but still I have the guts to answer the questions... And all my classmates were really shocked and they stand and clap their hands and say... Hay salamat nitingug na jd xa! And even I am afraid I smiled at them and say Thank you for the support... They laugh and one of my classmates said naka English pa jd..
That is the biggest achievement I have those time. But mind you, it took me a month to have that courage. And thanks for my Math skills and I was able to get out of my shell.
