I really need to get over this fear or embarrassment, or i do not even know how you call it. We started job hunting today, like going from building to building in different places.. it was quite tiring but fun too since i had my friend with me. But i am quite embarrassed since i did not learn much in my previous job, so i felt that i am not qualified in the jobs that i am applying for. 
My resume is no very awesome, i just hope that some of them would give me a chance.

Don't be afraid! We all have to take chances in our lives sometimes. Just go for it and see what happens. You will never know unless you try!

Everybody on every job had to start from the beginning. It's a learning experience for everyone so don't feel bad, you will learn everything that needs to be done on a new job. Good Luck!

Well then just apply via online job sites so you'll have time to consider what companies to apply to and what you'll tell them before the interview. Good luck on job hunting!

Relax and enjoy while you try find the job. When you interview or meet others just imagine that you are talking to your friend or cousin don't be nervous. They not going to eat you, they are human too. Unless you are applying random jobs which is not your expertise, this a bit hard cause you need confident and lie to them little bit haha. Just don't be afraid, just try and take the chances.

I think you just do not know the technique of interviewing for jobs.
You cannot say that you did not learn much in your job.
Even if you are just checking emails all day long, you can say that you have to file the emails, and to backup the emails. You have to sieve out the junk from the real emails.
It is a matter of going through all the things you have done, and find lessons from there.
