More risk taking in my personal life. Definitely have found myself seeking friendships and networking. Still pretty stubborn in my ways. Still a pretty open person I would say. I question if I'm more or less carefree nowadays.
I think I was really outgoing when I was very young, but was pretty shy for awhile. Now I'm reserved around new people, but I'm open to making new friends!
Love your picture btw

I am stronger and speak up more than I did as a child. I am still a very good girl, polite, calm, patient and positive but I do not let people walk over me like they did then.
I was incredibly extroverted as a young child! I would actually go door-to-door to say "hi" to all of the neighbors in the neighborhood. Then from about 5th grade until just last year I became socially introverted and shy. Over the past year, I feel I have gotten back to my roots, shed my insecurities, and become more of an extrovert again.
I was a skinny, somewhat dorky kid. As I matured I excelled at sports and gained self esteem and confidence.
I am more of a extrovert now. I used to be very quiet.
I was very shy, introvert and 'insignificant'. I think I have gotten out
a lot more now... the change has been quite large and surprising.

I was very shy and serious as a child and today I think I'm less shy, more willing to reach out of my comfort zone but I'm probably more serious.
I have always been shy and insecure. Now i'm less shy, but still insecure somtimes.
When I was young, I was very naive, believing anything and everything because someone said so. Nowadays I don't believe most anything that people say. I have also come to learn that I am better off being myself and not desperately trying to fit in with people. It's a little late in life to figure this out, but being me is cooler than trying not to be.
I'm less crazed.
If I'm being totally honest? Not much at all. I'd like to say I've grown & changed--but I'm still a funny introvert, still thoughtful, painfully honest. I'm a little more prone to breaking down the social boundary when I want to. A little more willing to be fuzzy instead of precise. But on the whole, I still read & work a little too hard to be different. And I really like a lot of people. So.
I'm much more confident about myself now. Sometimes I still get intimidated by social situations, but for the most part I feel like I can do anything.
My personality has changed just a little.Before I was to shy and didn't speak much around friends or people,now I'm more open and can open a conversation up with out feeling shy or nervous. :}
I act more maturely these days. And yet, I might be more indecisive about action these days.
