Alpha and WAW - part 2

[alpha99]

I'm off to the language 'meet up' in a minute. This is probably the first time in my life I have voluntarily done something like this. I joined the group 2 years ago but my own (well hidden) lack of confidence and general shyness had stopped me going. W, family, and friends see me as really confident, nothing bothering me, tell people what I think. Truth is that's been a front to hide my real shyness. As part of GAL I'm facing up to this for ME so that from now on I can make the most of any opportunity that comes my way instead of ducking out of it.
