The quiet-in-public, loud-in-private personality and his/her (its?) opposite.

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I'd describe myself as the latter, in that I like to make myself known in the classroom but become considerably less extroverted outside of it. I'd wager that my actual persona is reserved and that I simply enjoy masquerading as a typical teenager at school when I'd rather be around children or adults (especially the elderly). </p>

<p>Anyway, who else behaves in a manner similar to the one described above?</p>

2

<p>for me I am pretty reserved in public, but when I am with my friends I go crazy and am one of the loudest people there. I don't know exactly why, maybe because I'm scared of what ppl will think? I dunno.</p>

<p>im just weird period</p>

<p>bipolar maybe?</p>

I'm the same way!</p>

<p>certain ppl see me as the loud and not-shy-at-all smart girl while others see me as just being Ms.AP (idk how i got the name). so i guess i'm more extroverted in my classes but w/the ppl who i'm not so comfortable with, i tend to be more introverted and less talkative. i'm not afraid of what they'll think of me but i just don't have the time to encounter them, given i don't have any classes w/at least half of the students in my grade.</p>

7

<p>I'm the same as a lot of you guys. I'm always really shy and quiet in class and around people I don't know, but with my friends I'm usually extremely loud and crazy. :)</p>

8

<p>I'm loud in class but tend to be more careful with obnoxiousness when with friends.</p>

9

<p>outspoken in class, public, etc. i act crazy when i'm around people</p>

<p>but when i'm alone i'm a very calm and relaxed person</p>

10

<p>I'm quiet most of the time. I'm very mellow. But when I do talk, I have a lot of cheeky wit. Insults seem to be my special skill. :)</p>

11

<p>^ I'm like that, too.</p>

12

<p>quiet in public, loud at home</p>

13

<p>Same as snoopy, I'm moderately loud in some classes depending on the teacher.</p>

14

<p>I'm the same way as the op. In school I am very outspoken and social but when I am outside of school am extremely to myself. I like going on here cause noone knows who eachother is (unless you know me. Then you can tell in an instant by just about anyone of my posts). I also hate parties, but I love reading and sitting in my room thinking about random things.</p>

15

<p>I am very outspoken in class, and have (I believe) a vibrant personality around my friends. But I would rather chill, like going for a run, staying on the computer all day, or sleeping than go out 'shopping' or something. </p>

<p>Yea, I waste my life, but at least it isn't costing me too much. </p>

<p>I do like parties though, there just aren't any good ones near me.</p>

16

<p>I'm only outspoken where I feel welcome. In certain classes I'll be the loudest one there -- at parties, I'm the kid who stares out the window quietly waiting for something interesting to happen.</p>

17

<p>^That pretty much describes me.. I participate a lot in class and am outspoken around my close friends.. I only join in conversations of big groups if I think it's going somewhere interesting. Overall, I would consider myself calm in most situations, even when I am outgoing and "wild and crazy" at parties.</p>

18

<p>In situations where I'm comfortable (or intoxicated :o) I'm usually talkative, but I never get loud. I've been told that I "talk endlessly," but I'm not the type to yell or dance or spontaneously burst into song or anything like that.</p>

19

<p>I am loud (or so I have been described) but that is only because of my blaring voice ( my whisper sounds like other people's normal level).</p>

<p>But other than that ppl know me as calm and composed except when it comes to grades. In school, I am known to have two behaviors - anger and no anger.</p>

20

<p>In large groups I act completely ridiculous. Especially at concerts or parties. And overly flirty/sexual.</p>

<p>Then when I'm just with one or two people, they usually describe me as "boring". Hm, thanks, lol.</p>

<p>I feel awkward when I'm around just a few people, like the pressure is on me to entertain/hold up the conversation or whatever.</p>
