Challenge: Day 2 FR
Well, today didn't go according to plan, but I still got my 2 approaches in even though there was nothing really groundbreaking about them. This won't be that exciting of a summary.
I ended up having an hour long dizzy spell at work and wasn't even sure if I would be feeling well enough to make the approaches today, let alone make it home, but it finally let up and I felt better.
After work, instead of going out, I decided to go home and take a nap just in case my dizzy spell was caused by lack of sleep.
After my nap, I went to the driving range with a couple coworkers.
By the time we had finished, it was already 9:20 and I was running out of time.
Go to Whole Foods with one of my coworkers to pick up some dinner. Walk around there and see a target as I walk in, but she's like 3 inches taller than me and my limiting beliefs won't let me approach her. Oh well. Walk around some more and there's nothing else around. Leave and go back to my apartment to eat.
After eating, I head over to the local bar that has karaoke night. Great idea. The place is pretty bumping and there are lots of girls out. Grab a beer and make a round of the place looking for possible sets. I see a few and just chill watching people sing karaoke.
Go back downstairs to the bar and get another beer.
Approach 1
After getting my beer, there's a decent 2 set next to me. I open them with a "cheers!" They cheers me. The girl furthest from me whispers to her friend, "well, that was cute" or "he's cute." I'm not much of a lip reader, but I definitely heard the "cute." Very Happy
After that, I decided to just sit there and not say anything else. Again. Evil or Very Mad Oh well.
So anyway, ch0n60 shows up and we're at the bar waiting for him to get a drink.
Approach 2
A 2 set strolls up and comes up to the bar next to me. I'm chatting with ch0n60 and then it seems like we've all been waiting awhile for the bartender, so I ask the 2 set if they had gotten their orders in yet and they said "yeah, we have." Just then, the bartender comes in with their drinks and plops them down. I don't know how I missed them ordering, but no big deal. Again, lame, but I said something after opening.
I feel like I'm learning how to crawl/walk all over again. Ha...I need to stop being afraid to fail.
So ch0n60 and I just chill around the bar for a bit, check out the karaoke which ends up breaking, then go back down to the bar to look for girls.
I want to approach this really cute brunette direct, but she's surrounded by her 4 friends, so I decide to wait for better positioning.
We go back upstairs to the karaoke are and ch0n60 wants to sing. Now, I'm not a big fan of karaoke nor am I a good singer. I usually am scared to death of singing in front of people, and I ended up giving some pushback. But ch0n60 really wanted to do it, so I figured, hell, if I'm ever going to get over my fear of failing, this would be the first step. We end up singing a song and boy did we suck, but it was awesome. Haha. ch0n60 even had to sing the first part acapella since the music wasn't on or something. I'm glad I sang though since it pushed me outside of my comfort zone. I will definitely have to go back next week.
That was it for day 2. Hopefully, today I will get beyond the opener. I don't have any plans after work (i.e. gym, driving range) so as long as I don't get another dizzy spell today, I should have a lot more time to get in some quality sets.
