Blue Dude / badboy2007 - Bootcamp Journal - Summer 2007

I'm Back! (Like anybody remember me )

Last time I was here was last summer. Over 1 year ago! Boys, I've crossed miles since then

A bit of history for anybody who like to know a bit of me:
I dont remember quite when I found sosuave (Had another account beside this one, that I dont remember any more.), but its been LONG time now. I amuse my self by rereading some stuff Ive wrote before and I just know, I'm new person now.

Last time I was here, was last summer. Back then I just broke up with my ex and was quite keen on picking up again my PU training. My progras slacked alot due to me not beeing systematic or goal oriented but then it happend. I was telling a friend of mine that he should start doing some of the things I have been doing becouse it has helped me alot when it comes to ladies, and then he told me about that he heard some dude wrote a book on PU and that I should maybe read it. And I did. THE GAME By Neil. Now, when I read the book, It didnt make any diffrence in my PU training but it gave me a kick in the a.ss to get some wings here in Norway to sarge with. And that my fiends was start of new me.

In norway the PU community was allmost non existant, yet tho there was few that have been doing it for a long time. After the game, whole norway community came togather and thing started to get wild. We started to have weekly meeting (we still do), learn from each other and most imortant get some wings to sarge with.

Since then my friend again, I've comed a long way!

Now, after last summer I got back togather with my ex (yeye... long story), and have been with her since then until recently. So once again, your truly, is single. Now, me beeing in a relationship hasent been a problem when it came to sarging. I went out, did my thing with my wings and got back home. But It did have an inpact on the relationship. (Long story short, i broke up cuz she got way too needy).

Back to present.
Since I've started comming here to SoSuave I've tried to do that mother fuc.... DJ Bootcamp but I have never, not once comed further then week 2. I was just way too new to the whole thing, had way too many limiting belives and way too high AA. This time around, I KNOW I can do it. And that it what I will do!

Summer is here in Norway. Weather is beautiful. I have 2 months free. Quit my job, have nothing to do, so, whats better to do then do the Bootcamp? I will be going on summer vacation but there is absolutley nothing that can keep me from backing out of this one.

Now, DJ Bootcamp is gonna be like "the little thing you do when you do your normal thing" becouse I sarge way too much

Blue dude im finally starting today as well i think it would be good for both of us if we kept it up together see who ends up where at the end. Its better to train with a partner then completely on your own- keeps you motivated. What do you think?

 

[Blue Dude]

Ofcourse! Party allways welcome. Start today and write at the end of week how it went. Don't rush, dont try to do 2 weeks in 1 week, don't try do cut corners, don't try to bail out and we'll do fine.

Looking forward to see how we do mate!

Great!

Heres a quick background. my ex dumped me 4 years ago for being desperate, done loads of research on internet and I actually became a DJ for a few months- it was a glorious era! Few months later i dumped this girl i had got with since my promotion because she got needy, and went off to a new town and university on my own, where for three years ive got lazy, overweight, desperate and found no friends, and am now an AFC again. I was unconciously desperate to keep my housemates as friends cos i had no one else so i was nice to them, and as a result by the third year i was being shown no respect, ordered around and nicknamed desperado. I had to rely on getting drunk to have a good night out and approach women. While they are still partying, i couldn't wait to get out of there and start again from scratch.

My confidence with girls at least is rock bottom- i have no problems chatting to other guys- friend or strangers. I want to be a DJ again!

I've got a 5 year plan and this year is more than about women. Its about becoming a man and getting my life straight. I know what career(s) i want and how to get there within the next 2, what i want to do in life (martial arts, learn Spanish and play guitar & piano) and how successful i want to be.

So everything has been prepared. In the past week in terms of fitness i have been working out every morning and cycling. 2nite i will hit the weights. Career wise i have sent out application forms to different universities to study a course for 2 years. Personally, I have started reading a personal growth book which provides golden information on how to achieve a successful, confident state of mind- i will post these tips up when i get the time.

As for the women, it starts today!!

Eye contact day 1

Okay Blue Dude i got about 29 eye contacts today! All 29 eventually looked away first. However i chickened out of a significant number as well. I locked eyes mainly with people i didn't feel threatened by- namely old people, ugly women and AFCs. Many couldn't maintain eye contact, but many didn't look away quickly either.

Some interesting participants- I locked eyes with one girl (7) who was with her man and she locked on confidently for a very good few seconds. Eventually though she lowered her look and seemed to go in deep thought and shock- she had obviously got used to winning these sort of locks with men. I haven't felt that confident after that lock since i can remember.

One man, equipped with a smile, reacted by saying 'hello' to me. Perhaps the most memorable of the 29. I immediately smiled back and returned the greeting. I guess that is what i'll be doing in a few days.

I am struggling to lock eyes with nice girls and confident guys. Understandably though, this is a confidence exercise and i am lacking it. I only locked eyes with 3 nice girls, thats including the 7. The other was with her friend (both 7/8) and she looked down quickly- but if she hadn't done then i would have. The other girl i caught her eye but had to look away immediately. I noticed she kept trying catching my eye from there on until she left (i work in a cafe)?! Most of the other time i act as if the girls are invisible (grrrrrr AFC!).

I also feel my eye contacts are more threatening then inviting. I am challenging my opponent to a duel- boy or girl. I am struggling to present a smile cos in the heat of the moment it would feel like submition.

One more thing (i know, i know- i've almost finished!) cycling back home i saw this really nice girl walking past my road. I strongly considered approaching her A) i liked her a lot B) she must have been from around my area. Surprise surprise i regret i didn't do it. JUST DO IT BADBOY! Hopefully in a few weeks it would be second nature to approach her.

So for the next 6 days i need to work on locking on more nice hot chicks, being less threatening i.e getting that smile in, and integrating a 'hi' to the interaction. 2moro i am travelling back to my old town to collect the rest of my stuff and have one final lash up with my housemates. This city, and this particular night, is a) filled with fit, hot student girls and b) a foreign city so i can and am going to do WHATEVER i want without fear of any reprecusions!

Week 1 - Day 3

Nice to see you take this seriously Badboy. EC's are hard for unconfident guy. It feels like you're saying, "you wanna fight?" But you must just stand on your ground, tell your self that you're all that and a bag of chips and don't care. "Don't care", beeing the motto. We'll make this!

These 3, or should I say last 2 days, I haven't done a jack. Well EC I allways do. So i've looked numberous hot chicks right in the eyes but the more hotter the chick, the less she wanna lock EC with me. Anyways, got no problem at all locking EC with nobody. Even AMOG's on the street. Alltho sometimes it can be a bit much up to point where they pass you buy, still looking at you, then they turn around stop while still haveing locked EC with you and say something like "what you looking at?". I show no sign of weekness and say usualy somthing like "I just think I know you from somewhere. But maybe not". They say ok, turn around and walk away and I get to be the one that wins

1-2 hi's? Not sure, tho. Haven't started counting or realy trying hard. I think I started this thread on monday, and then tuesday I was way too lazy and today is wedensday so I guess maybe I'll be starting soon with it. It realy shouldn't be like "ok, I start now and Im finish in 1h". It should be like breathing. The thing you do normaly when you're out. Anyways, gonna report back on how it goes.

EC day 2, 3, 4

Blue thats what stops me from locking with nice girls and guys. They would prob hold the EC and ask me what im looking at. But like i said this is a confidence thing so i need t start doing it so i get more confident at it. I don't think this exercise should be that critical for you since you can pretty much look people in the eyes no problem.

I easily passed 50 ECs by 2 days, BUT most of these were shy men and ugly women, and there was no 'hi' involved. So by tuesday night i decided to start another 50 EC, this time only with nice girls, and including 'hi's.

I did about 2 during the last 2 nights- BUT the story does not end there. Pook's two posts for this week have really played on my mind. I danced with 5 girls after stumbling into them and simply thinking 'KILL THAT DESPERATION!'- one was an 8 who i had never met before, and three i had always seen around for the last year but been too shy to approach and talk to. I've also dreamt of banging my mates girlfriend for about 2 years and last night decided to BE A MAN and embrace my testosterone. I liked her and her ass and let her know about it, and to my surprise she refused to resist all night. If she was single i would have completed the night with a kiss and beyond.

All in all a goods night work, however this is irrelevant to the challenge despite its significant confidence boost. Twice i found myself parked in front of a nice girl driver by the red lights and i could not bring myself to lock EC with her through her rearview mirror. Im heading into the mall tomorrow so hopefully there will be progress then. Must smile and say HI!

EC day 5

Crap day.

Didn't go to the mall and didn't really do much at work. I am finding my motivation waining a little. Unconsciously i don't believe i will hit 50 by Sunday- im on 14- and as a result i am letting the challenge pass by and preparing to give it my all for next weeks challenge...

f**k it tomorrow i will try as much as i can. I work in a cafe so i got no excuses.

 

[badboy2007]

okay i didnt hit 50 but i did get thru 25 or so ECs and 'hi's. I plucked up the courage to look in the eye and say hi to this girl who i used to pretend was invisible whenever she came in to the shop. She smiled back and said hi almost as if she was excited i finally plucked up the courage- or maybe im still over-analyzing every action like a standard AFC. Either way the moment i did it i felt a wave of confidence grip me and soon i was saying hi to loads of people.

This is not the last of EC though. 75 strangers isn't bad but I will continue to lock and say hi for the following weeks because i feel there is much more room for improvement regarding hot chicks. ? How are you getting on Blue?

Convo Day 1

This hi and eye contact thing have really boosted my confidence. I no longer feel inferior- rather i feel slightly superior to the majority of the general public. Here I am looking people in the eyes, while they pretend im invisible or something. Im pretty selective though. Im only looking in the eyes of people i dont think i normally would lock on. This means old women, Milfs, and retarded loser lads my eyes have no time for.

The 'hi's are also coming along nicely. I am slowly realising again that its no harder to look into the eye and say hi to a nice girl then it is to fatty one. All my returns have been warm smiles and hellos back. In fact that confidence and air of superiority is coming into play here as well- I am starting to look down on a lot of these hot girls when greeting them i.e. knocking them off the pedestal.

Today i had no conversations. Actually, i had two- one was with a guy i was stuck with in some waiting room; i decided to talk to him after we sat in silence for a a minutes. We spoke for less then two minutes but i learnt more in those few sentances about the nature of his job and how hard life is for poor, low paid and overworked workers than if i had simply sat there in silence. The other was some old guy asking me what was happening next door to my cafe after the shop was closed and raided by police. Both were men, both lasted less then a two minutes, and both are irrelevant. But hey its better then a day where i would normally wake up, keep my self strictly to my self for 7 hours or so, come home eat and then sleep?

Today i also cried for the first time in a few years. My mother told about something that happened to her cousin BB a few days ago in another country. He is my age, 21, had just finished uni like me and was preparing to celebrate and start his career. His car had broken down on the day of his last exam so he took a taxi to uni and back. He finished his exam and had planned a night out. On the way back his driver tried to overtake a car but did not see the bus coming from the other side. The car was flattened under the bus. They took him to one hospital but they couldn't treat him so they took him to a better hospital. The driver escaped serious injuries but he wasnt as lucky. His body was fine. They shaved his hair off and found every inch of his skull was wobbly. His face was bloody and unrecognisable. He was in a coma, on life support and no one knows if he will live, walk or talk. His mother came to his bed, held his lifeless hand and cried; and then she felt his hand trying to squeeze hers.

How quickly and suddenly your life could be taken away from you. Tomorrow someone could walk into your store or school and shoot you dead. Tomorrow you could crash you car to work. Tonight you could die in your sleep. And here i am worried about starting conversations. I will live my life to the fullest. I will fear nothing. I will get to where i want to be in my life. I will make people proud. And i will do it for BB.

Hello gents,

Sorry to intrude, I was interested in beginning bootcamp too, and it looks like from the other threads there are a couple of other people thinking the same thing. Would you guys be interested in consolidating?

I think it would be beneficial for us all to be on the same page and begin with a large group, rather than having maybe 1 or 2 other partners that drop out in a couple weeks. Here are the other threads I found. I was thinking we should consider joining forces. If I was you guys, I wouldn't want to slow down, so perhaps we should just catch up with you guys really quick? What do you think?
