My name's Milos Nikolic (Милош Николић), believe it or not, I'm 15 years old and I started my high school life this year. I'm really ambitious and I want to improve people around me and the world. Before doing that I need to get my own head clear. I use to think 24/7 and I care way too much about things. I'm an excellent student and never had a girlfriend before (neither a boyfriend). My real story is that I often put others' happiness in front of my own and as often get disappointed. You'll found out more about me through my posts (also I'd love to meet new people, be free to message me with any thread to talk about). Here's a picture of me to finish the introduction :)
Let's talk about the actual thread. Finding yourself and tuning your personality. First of all - You won't change yourself, because nothing is as beautiful as being yourself, got it? Be aware that we are not all the same. We are different in physical and psychical ways, and that's what makes the world beautiful. You don't have to be the best looking, smartest and coolest person in school or your friend circle. Walking your own path will lead you to where you belong. People will come and go, but only the ones who stay are those who matter. Is a leaf's only purpose to fall? Probably not. Well, you exist for a reason.
Since we mostly talk about high school, let's talk about how we feel around people. It often tends to be an explosion of hormones and people either laugh because our life is a mess or because we are funny. We all find some person we are bound to but when other people are around we start to talk brainless things which make us look like the last idiot. So, no matter if it's your crush, older kids from your school or simply your circle of friends, here's a short guide that should make you look coolheaded in front of anyone.
-Short sentences <-> Simple things
Every cool thing people say is short and cool. Even the most awesome thread can become an atmosphere killer if you complicate it too much. Talk in short sentences, not more than 10 words. You'll look smart because you know what you're saying
-Voice, expressions and body language
Using your hands while talking automatically make you look educated and people will focus on you.
Even more important is the way you raise and lower your voice while talking. YOU WANT TO SHOUT AT EXCITING THINGS and rather whisper at secrets and scary things, for the atmosphere.
-Improvisation and continuous talking
Don't. Repeat. Yourself. Keep talking continuous, and if you got confused by yourself, keep talking about anything that is cool. Improvisation is key. As long as you look secure and words come out of you easily, you are doing it right.
-Silence says more than words
Probably the most important part. You don't have to be in the spotlight alway, simply keep up your smile and listen. Not saying anything is always better than saying something wrong.
Say much with little words, don't complicate things, be silent when it's the right thing to do.
Maybe I should've mentioned this part before the talking part. Before you talk to people you get known to them. It's important to have a good relation with as many people as possible, but only be close to the one who complete you. Of course, there will be always someone who will dislike you and those people, we cool kids see as challenge. We don't down neither stomp anyone to achieve our goals or to seem cool in friend circles. Be gentle and friendly. You'll eventually take jokes on your bill and people will laugh at / with you. Important is not to headless fight back. Be sarcastic, Laugh with them or say something funny about the person, do not look offended.
Before finishing this kind of short first part, I will have to come back to sarcasm. Remember, sarcasm is a language the coolest people talk. The smart will understand you and look up to you while the ones with no sense for it will just look stupid. You will be able to insult idiots (who you should avoid anyway) without them getting it.
SARCASM IS THE KEY
