Ok, this sounds REALLY silly, but I'm super anxious because this Friday, I'm volunteering at my old public school's Fun Fair, and for an hour I have to do FACE PAINTING.

I am so afraid of everything about it...being around the kids, trying to interact naturally with them, potentially screwing up the painting (even though I'll be using stencils, I can still screw up!)

I've never felt that I'm good with kids, although they seem to be fine with me. It's just awkward around them because I can't really relate to them...my inner child is hidden and only comes out sometimes.

I'm not going to back out because I've already committed my time, and I need the volunteer hours, but I'm very scared. Very, very scared.
