| Ever Feel Transparent?! Like People Sometimes Look
Past You And Instead Focus On Your More Outgoing Mates?!
Were gona tell you that
you don’t have to show loads of flesh, be outrageous,
outspoken or change who your are completely to get noticed
- you just need a little confidence boost.
- GET NOTICED
IN COLLEGE/UNI -
What a joy it is to
walk into class! The best seat (at the back, by the
radiator) has your name on it and no sooner has your
bum touched bae than all your mates are by your side
giggling about some guy, who just won’t stop staring
at you. Sound familiar?! Thought not. College/Uni can
be tough, tough with a capital VERY. And if you’re quiet
it can be even harder. So the best thing to over-come
this, is to start it with by “Faking it” Stand up, stick
a smile on your dial and catch someone’s eye. If that
person notices you, look happy and you’ll not only brighten
up your own day but theirs too. Smiles are contagious,
so pass ‘em along. After a while the positive messages
you’re sending out will make their way back to you and
suddenly your self-esteem will shoot up. Before you
know it, you won’t have to fake it anymore .
- GET NOTICED
WITH GUYS?! -
|
With
guys, isn’t it great how they flock around you
anxious for a second of your time?! Oh, that doesn’t
happen eh?! Getting noticed by boys is pretty
much the same as getting noticed by girls - they
appreciate sincerity. When you’re feeling shy,
it can be misinterpreted. And you can’t just wait
for them to come to you - being proactive is the
name of the game!
Because guys are
slightly, eh, dim when it comes to reading the
signals we send out, they need lost of gentle
nudges. Enter the confident goddess that is YOU!
Forget the fluttery
eyelashes just make an effort to smile, laugh
at their jokes and show an interest in their endless
boy babble- “Oh yeah, FIFA is nothing compared
to Pro-Evolution..” And don’t forget boys generally
big ladies who aren’t afraid to make the first
move. When you get chatting to that hottie, have
a giggle at his attempts and humour and you’ll
stand head and shoulders above 10 putting princesses
who count hair flicking as on of their main hobbies.

GET NOTICED BY
YOUR FRIENDS?!
Ever sat in your living
room on a Sunday afternoon and decided you want out
of your house, pronto, before your brain dissolves from
watching to much TV?! Yup, us too. But how annoying
is it when you sent the “anyone wana do something?”
text and all you get back are replies like “we’re at
the cinema”?!
Friendship is the ultimate
game of give and take. It’s about observing, listening
participating and being genuine. You’ll generally find
that you only get back what you give. For instance,
the next time nobody seems too bothered about your latest
news, or asks you how you’re feeling , ask yourself
when as the last time you took time out to listen to
what’s going on in their lives?! Being the friend who’s
numero uno on everyone’s speed dial means making an
effort to be there through thick and thin - not just
when you need an ear to bend. If you ask questions,
listen and have a face-to-face chat every once in a
while you might be surprised to find that they’re suddenly
more available than they used to be.
GET NOTICED IN
A CROWD!!
Getting noticed when
you’re out in a crowd or in a massive group doesn’t
mean you have to dress like Lil’ Kim. Getting noticed
is all about putting your own stamp on things. Red and
pink can be really eye-catching as an accessories like
stripy scarves or a cute hat. And don’t forget, there
is such a thing as getting noticed for the wrong reasons.
If you want to show
off your legs then don’t wear a skimpy top, and if you
do want to wear something tight on top, team it with
jeans.
And above all, make
sure you feel comfortable, If you’re a jeans girl, wearing
a mini will only make you feel awkward, stick to what
you feel comfy in and you can concentrate on more pressing
things at hand - like making eyes at the crowd of lush
guys!
