Its OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets

23、a little shy sometimes. Its just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy.

24、 go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.If shyness doesnt stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isnt a very big problem.
