Tumblring

I've made a tumblr! And no, I didn't abandon this blog for that one, my tumblr is just for a bunch of random things (reblogs, rants, etc.). I probably won't ever get as personal there as I did here (..I was personal right? I didn't just blog in my head? ..Unsure), I just think it's fun.
So you want, go follow me on : iliveinsideashell.tumblr.com

talking to me..

Do you guys talk to yourself? Because I do. Alot. And sometimes it's even a full out standing in front of the mirror having a partially one sided conversation with my thoughts occasionally responding to the audible me. Most of the times it's in my head though.
And what's weirder is that I can sit at my desk talking to myself in my makeup mirror for like twenty minutes but when I'm trying to have a conversation with the cute boy in my biology class, I can't think of anything to say.
I guess it's because I hate small talk. It's so hard for me. Especially if the other person isn't a great small talker either. Because then your both sitting and struggling to find words. With myself, there's no need to bring up anything relevant. I can say anything and everything that comes to mind.
With other people, especially people in class you're just aquentences with it's harder. Like, what if I don't want to talk about the homework, the upcoming test, or how insane the teacher is? What then?
Seriously, I suck at small talking. The last non school related conversation had with the before mentioned cute boy was about...yogurt? Yeah. Yogurt.
Why am I so socially awkward?
You know those people that are just like awesome conversationalists? I mean, it doesn't even have to be an actual conversation but there are some people that you immediately connect with because they said something funny or witty, like the funny cashier who commented on your candy corn purchase or that guy who walked up to you and just launched into a random awkward story. Those people who are so sure of them selves and actually know what they want to say. I want to be like them. I just wish I knew how.
