Everybody knows that awful moment when you meet someone new; the nerves, the empty space in your head that just kind of appears all of a sudden because you can't think of anything. I don't know about you, but I seriously hate those moments. I hate not knowing what to say to people, and I hate not knowing what to do to break the super awkward silence that always falls when I'm introduced to someone new. It's always the worst when you're an adult on your own meeting new people. Cue the collection of sighs.
If you're like me, then you know this all too well. You've search through the depths of the internet to figure out what to say, but nothing has come to mind. Well, search no longer!
