    It's not too bad if you know a couple of secrets.... Before you get up to talk..... pick out a few friendly faces in the crowd.... look for someone who is a "smiler" or looks especially friendly....

    Great job on passing your test! I agree with Jo Ann's quote too. Sadly, some people are insecure about themselves and feel the need to make negative comments. I try to realize that the issue isn't...
