- Sports related injuries. (In my case getting hit in the face a lot when playing sports that involve balls.)
- Slightly uncoordinated.
- Has albums full of awkward junior high photos (as mentioned above)
- Trips over oneself frequently
- Talks before thinking (foot in mouth)
- Embarrasses self frequently, often thinking it's worse than it is.
- Can be shy
- Unique sense of humor
Now here are the counterparts of what makes Awkward kids cool:
- Cool scars and heightened tolerance of physical pain
- Often finds out later that they can be incredibly suave in other areas (i.e. dancing) and that they look smoother than they feel.
- Has photo's to look back on to use as stand-up comedy routines and realize how good looking they are now.
- Still trips, however less injuries and embarrassment are sustained.
- Has learned when to speak and when to listen. (Depends on the person)
- Has learned not to care about other people's opinions=less embarrassment, more self-confidence.
- Befriends shy people. Compassionate to others.
- People finally appreciate their unique sense of humor. Also enjoys other people's quirks
Although some are more awkward than others, everyone has been an awkward kid at some point in their life. I hope you can see how awesome, unique, and wonderful your awkwardness has made you. Go awkward kids!
