I found a mud puddle! I've never played in the mud, and I really want to! But it's right off a busy sidewalk at the beach, so I'm obviously afraid to get muddy in public. But maybe I'll "fall" into it, should I do it? I'm certainly getting my white shoes muddy!
Be the first one on the dance floor. Be the first on in class to give your book report. You'll be awesome. Everyone will wish they had done it. I had a chance to play in the mud in middle school during P.E., opted not to because I was afraid my mom would be mad that my gym clothes would be ruined. Regret that. Go for it. Be yourself!
