Hey everyone, Alex here. Know how the entire town is practicing for the big show? Well, I guess I understand why – I mean, they all want to be famous, right? The thing is – I don’t. I don’t want to perform ANYTHING in front of ANYONE. And it’s almost like no one understands that. I tried explaining it to Sparky, but he just said, “C’mon, Alex! Don’t you want everyone to know who you are?”
No! That sounds terrible! I don’t want that at all!
You know, unless it’s because I discover something amazing or come up with a new theory or formula. Then, sure! But how many scientists have to perform in front of a live studio audience?
I think I’ll stick to what I’m good at: rocks, science, and cheering my friends on from a safe distance.
I am a HUGE goody goodyand i do not want to go an stage in front of a camera, and sing or dance. The only thing I want to be known for is being a good person and making awesome things out of polymer. I know EXACTLY how you feel. ~Thunderspark17…soon to be NarwhalPower17
dude im like totes glad that ur gonna like NOT follow the crowd i mean like if u wanted 2 do that it would b 1 thing but u dont so dont let ur friends push u n 2 doing somthing u DONT wanna do!
It’s OK, Alex! You don’t have to perform if you don’t want to! I can sing with a few friends, but on stage, I’m not the best at projecting my voice.
Por Alex. :( Some people just don’t understand how other people feel. It is O.K. to be shy, even I am sometimes (maybe even a lot :) ) I hope everything works out!
Alex its your desition and you do what YOU think is best!
Good for you, Alex, for knowing who you are. Scientists do sometimes have to speak in public, so it is a good skill to hone, but do not force yourself to do something you do not want to do. All the best! MDIChickadee
Do whatever makes you comfertable!!!!!!!!1
thats okay tell your friend the truth if you want you could preform a cool science trick in front of audience
alex its okay to be afraid! and, i’m very sorry no one understands what you mean. i don’t like performing either…… so alex, if you don’t feel comfertable doing something,thats cool. but you should at least cheer your friends.
I was once in a play AND a talent show both in the same year and in the play I got a main part with LOTS of solos and my act in the talent show a was a big hit (magic show). But that was in my heyday, I guess I kind of “retired” to being shy again. Don’t worry, I’m sure eventually you’ll have your heyday, too. But in the meanwhile, just lay low, I guess. You’re kind of like me, not outrageous, and like to study. Except I’m not really into geology, just flora, fauna, art, literature, and playing my clarinet….you know, fine arts.
