people ask me why i'm so quiet/awkward with them in person than on aim, then see me with certain people & i'm totally bananas.

& well, the answer's simple... these 'people' are called friends for a reason. i'm not the kind of person who can just meet people & automatically click with them the first time. takes me a loooongass time before i reach that level where i'm jumping from lunch table to lunch table singing at the top of my lungs with you. & aim is aim. i'm a chatting maniac on there. i guess it's part of my nature. so when i say get to know me, it's probably a longer process than with most people.
