[usr] One time when I was younger I wore a Halloween costume that I'd been looking forward to show off.  But I ended up covering myself up with a cape, because I was self conscious of how I looked. [sys] Aww- I'm sorry that happened. Why were you embarrassed? [usr] Well the costume itself ended up looking great, since my mom made it.  But I hadn't realized how fat I looked when i wore it, so I felt bad. [qst] [None] [bhv] I'm in a negative mood, please comfort me.
It's always difficult when you feel self-conscious - but I've learned that people rarely judge you as hard as you judge yourself.
I remember one time when I wore a Halloween costume that I'd been looking forward to wearing.  But I spent the whole night covered up in a cape, because I was self conscious of how I looked in it.
