Putting on a Show

If you know me well you know that you can usually have a good idea what I'm thinking based on what you see, if I'm pissed, you'll know it, if I feel wierd also equally obvious, or when I'm happy I'll be making you laugh all night long. Before I jump into the rest of my post I would first like to say that sometimes it's good to put on a show, pretend you feel different than you really do, sometimes it's the right thing to do. Most of the time it's just stupid. The reason why is this: most people aren't good actors. I've noticed that in big groups girls will pretend to be having the time of their lives, hey and there's nothing wrong with having an awesome time, but when you're faking it it shows. Just be real. Same goes for guys it just doesn't happen as much. Well, with guys it's more like their show is how little they care about what's going on. Maybe someone there actually wants to talk to you, but when you're too busy showing everyone else what a good time you're having, or how much you wish you were someplace else, those opportunities to talk steadily dissappear. But maybe your reason to be there is to party, well dang girl, go party, but if it isn't stop pretending it is.

I have met some awesome people that are really fun to be around, I can think of three in particular where if I had been putting on a show i never would have gotten to know them. Take some time, slow it down a notch get to know some good people.
