Teenage Moments; 2 TSG Tips

Teen Survival Guide ~

As a Teen we have many uncomfortable or as you can say " AWKWARD " moments. Today on Teen Survival Guide I'm going to explain how to avoid these kind of situations. Exhibit #1 Talking to a bf/gf. - When it comes to someone that your going to have to basically text or call like 40% of your day. Your going to run into something so weird and awkward , it's just not funny. Well It usually depends on what the subject of your conversation is. When your speaking about like your relationship with each other & he/she brings up something uncomfortably weird your gonna hesitate and freeze right? Here's what I think you should do . Try not to get into the base of it . Or you can try actually getting into it cause your going to have to at some point . So why not now?
Exhibit #2 Being put in the spot in class or publicly. My Tip is to just make something out of it like . . . if your in class and the instructor calls on you to present something and you begin to speak but you end up messing up one of the sentences. It's awkward because your frozen and the class is staring at you waiting for you to proceed. Here's what you should do think about it but don't take that long. Then make something out of it . Think of it as an award or something that you can be proud of. I know it sounds weird but if you think of it everyone makes mistakes. Everyone does it so make it an opportunity for you to be better as a person. Your avoiding by taking it as something you can acknowledge .
That's it for 2 TSG Tips . Thanks for reading and I hope these will help. Or make sense since my logic was really hard to explain. :)
