Week 1, Day 2

Did better today than i did yesterday, i got about 8 hi's and i'm guessing 15 or so ec's. The ec's really make me feel confident since so many people avoid it.

I need to work harder on getting more hi's with less chokes.


Got another exam tomorrow so i'm off to bed

Week 1 Day 3
So today i actually did eye contacts... today was a much better day
i didnt count any bc it wasnt all perfect (ALL Perfect Eye contact,smile, and hi)...
i gotta work on the smile tho...... well ill only smile at chicks.(i just nod at guys). But it seems weird cuz i dont want to smile at a chick i dont like.. and then her think i like her.. u know? Maybe if i do one of those lame half way smiles ? so they know im just being polite but not interested?

but anyways today was much better than monday and tuesday.
unfortunately i only have tomorrow and thursday left for this week(since i cant go out on weekends)... so ill have to get in those smiles and hi's and start counting.

I dont know, eye contact is not a problem and i feel weird doing his but i got about another 17

 

[comic_relief]

yesterday night, 5 hi's

Going out tonight up to Berwick for a while. hoping for 5-10 and eye contact is easy for me to give but hard to get.

Also I smile at myself meaning I smile at anyone. who cares what others thought because I am always happy. If they have a problem with it, tough sh!t!

Total 29

P.S. this is tough not having a license for a car but I think I will manage. Just have to be fun and creative with it.

My update:

I have about 12 hi's so far. However, some of them were in the mall where clerks worked (does that count?). Most of the time, if I say hi to random strangers in the store, I got no response. O well. I'll pick it up more tomorrow and Saturday.

One on One, isn't the goal to make eyecontact and say hi to 50 people, rather than GET 50 hi's?

Week 1, Day 4

Yeah, the goal is to say 50 hi's. I didn't get any today, unfortunately so I'm stuck on 4. I may have to extend week 1 because I've been so busy.

Dudes, I will try and say this nicely...

FVCK BOOT CAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just go to a bar/club where there is the highest per capita of tail anyway and open set after fvcking set after fvcking set. You will never get over the Approach, but at the very least you'll become somewhat inured to it.

It'll be around 200 sets when you feel you have some butterflies, but all you need are a few sets that night to warm up for the real thing. That's sets with 2 to 10 people, guys or girls. If you're under 21, get a fake ID. Hot girls congregate to these areas for a FVCKING reason whether they admit or not.

Field Experience is KING.

Ok well... I would say on Monday/Tuesday I had maybe 10 His and maybe atleast 20 eye contacts around school and in the mall and gym.

I started a new job at a hotel where i walk around all day and am doing all kind's of hi's and smiles and eye contact. I would guess I did maybe 40-50 today, if not then tommorrow I will certainly crush the goal.

My question is does that really count? Or could being so comfortable talking to people as my job not count? With over 300 employees in the hotel I figure I should talk to as many people as I can and figure em out.

 

[CGE333]

I am at 17 but I have the next 2 days off of work and school. I'll get there.

You have a great idea with working through 200 sets at the bars/club. Might be even better if all those approaches aren't just limited to that one location. I think taking out those 200 sets/approaches would make for a great post bootcamp experience...perhaps we could call it "Bootcamp graduate school"

I think your view on bootcamp is a result of your misunderstanding of it. The purpose of bootcamp is to take someone with no or little experience (AFC) and help them become a DJ. It's also good for people who want to brush up on there skills.

Not only does it take baby steps, but it stresses the fundamentals of DJing which are very important, and it also has articles from the bible which help at getting people in the right mindset.

Any how your suggestion would most likely be a huge leap for someone with little experience , but the idea is great and i'll take the challenge and do the 200 sets for a post bootcamp experience!

Week 1 Day 4
Today sucked again. It was kinda like tuesday. Went down from yesterday ;(

EFFORT where the hell are you???? youre never ****ing on AIM....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Microphone Fiend]

Week 1, Day 5

Another crappy day of only 3 Hi's. I found the perfect spot for doing this first phase of BC, but chickened out for the most part. I'm at a grand total of 7, whoop dee do. Definitely not giving up, though. I'm going to be out of town most of the next two days and busy so I doubt I will make much more progress. I'm not going to advance to Week 2 until I finish Week 1 though. I'm thinking of it more as Level 1 so there isn't really a deadline (although I'm not going to be satisfied saying 1 Hi for 50 days, of course!).

I am definitely sold on the partner idea. I plan to head out to Reston, VA to finish up this phase of the bootcamp so if anyone in Northern VA or even MD is interested, hit me up. I'm 22 so please be at least 18, and hopefully closer to 21 or 22 so this can work.
