PS:
“And finally, I must tell you that this year, the third-floor corridor on the right-hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a very painful death.“
Harry laughed, but he was one of the few who did.
Can you imagine how this would have looked to other students?
Dumbledore tells the students that visiting the third floor corridor will lead to a most painful death, and what does the famous and mysterious boy-who-lived do? He laughs.

1. Hold your head high, and look others in the eye
2. Smile
3. Stop apologizing
4. Relax and be quick to laugh at yourself (but not at others!)
5. Dress in a way that indicates you have self worth
6. Use good manners (like saying please and thank you) as this is actually a mark of self respect
7. Expect other people to believe in you, and to see and appreciate your good qualities.
8. Before you know it, its no longer fake
wheRE WAS THIS ALL MY LIFE
It’s here now 😊
Hey there, social incompetent speaking: I have no inherent knowledge or understanding of social cues, so social situations have always been extremely difficult for me to manage, as I have to consciously plan my every move. I can confirm that falling back on my training as the daughter of a Southern gentleman (much as my dad might like to deny it) is my default when I don’t know people. Make cracks at your own expense, smile, keep posture like you’re stacking goddamn books on your head, and throw manners around like confetti. It works. The number of people who like me is vastly disproportionate to the number of people I like.
