A Traumatic Experience

I am an introvert. It has led to numerous awkward situations for me which in turn make my life stressful and more frustrating. Many examples can come from stores or restaurants. I can say my order, the person will not be able to hear it, and it will make a completely awkward situation.

In hindsight, it was not a very good idea, nor did it help me get over my shyness.
I remember this for the reason that it was possibly the most horrific event that came out of my shyness. My friend and I, now 8th graders got to sit on the back of the bus. However, some people on the bus did very horrific activities. One day, a person brought cigarettes onto the back of the bus.
