Im a sailor. I have a mind and mouth to prove it. Every weekend from June - October Im out on the water doing what I love with the people I love.

My real dads an alcoholic, so I disowned him. Now I have one of my sailor friends as my dad. He takes his job seriously and I love it.

I have the reverse of you lol I'm more self concious with strangers than with people I know. I think you should definitely go for it & just push yourself to do it. if they're your friends nothing bad will come out of it! & you have no idea how many other people there are going to be too concerned with themselves, feeling the same way as you that they won't even notice your insecurities or flaws. everyone has them & tends to not focus on others but just sees their own.

So my friend tinkerbell (her nickname, not her real name lol) is making me do swim team at my school. I kinda wanted to do it anyways, just not alone, and so shes gonna do it with me. We signed up yesterday and everything, and practice starts on monday.I started to get like reeeeeally excited for it....but I just found out who is gonna manage it. They are my two best guy friends. and I am gonna be sooooooooo self conscious. I know me, and im like totally not self conscious in front of strangers, but my friends (espesially these 2) i am sooo sooooooo self conscious aout. i know im gonna be freaking out about every little thing I do cause i think they will be watching me. I know they wont be most of the time (they both have girlfriends, and Kyle's gf is tinkerbell....) but im still really worried. anyone else get this same self conciousness as me?? (like when it dictates your life pretty much.) What can i do? I reeeally wanna swim. but i also dont cuz i dont think ill have fun cuz they are gonna be there. What do i do? Any ideas on how i can control the self consciousness some so i can swim?
please help!!!
