Male Female

It may sound simple, but a skill that I managed to learn recently is communication. Back when I was a child, I was really lonely and didn't have friends around me, and somehow I managed to enjoy this loneliness. But now I'm working on my communication skills by approaching strangers, sharing jokes, and I try this technique with my friends as well. I don't have close friends, but I hope that in the future, when I study abroad at university, I will improve my communication and the lifestyle I dream about. I believe in myself and my communication skills, and I am optimistic about getting better. I can motivate myself to do better.
