DJ Bootcamp Week 3 (Summer 2005)

[BrotherAP]

Welcome, men, to week 3 in the bootcamp. It's about to get fun, as we are going to initiate 10 conversations with some sexy ladies. Go out there and find yourself some hot babes - and make em smokin! I want your balls to be in your throat because your so nervous! No pressure here, all that is required from you is a conversation - closing is purely optional (but why wouldn't you want to?). After this step, you should feel confident enough to approach any girl, no matter how unfamiliar, and start a conversation. If 10 is not enough, then go for 20! Don't stop until you've had enough.

Some notes I'd like to add: I want you macking these girls. No AFCism allowed. You will masculine, bold, sexual, and dominant. This is your chance to shine without risking anything - your mission is accomplished if they simply talk to you. That's all that is required. They don't have to like you, just talk to you. Go for it!

I want to hear about some HOT girls, guys, don't let me down!

p.s. Sorry about the late post... time escaped me. Won't happen again.

Thursday night i was chatting to a lass at the bus stop... everything went well and I even got her number.

Do you wanna know what the **** thing is? I just left my mobile phone on the bus, and it had the number on... now i've gotta go get some more numbers, cause of a stupid ****ing jerk off of a wank stained **** sniffing member of the over-wieght fat bastard public won't answer my phone.

sorry about the french lads.

Day 1,

I went to gym and talked to guy for a good five minutes.

I didn't get to talk to girls at all. I had one opportunity but I chocked.

Day 2,

I went to Borders bookstore but I didn't see any cute girls. However, I did have a friendly convo with a guy studying. There were two HB5.5 not far from me but somehow I never got the motivation to walk over.

The mall was my next stop but my failure to act meant that no conversations followed.

Well, things have started poorly for me this week.

Metalixia,

Sorry to hear about the phone. I would try calling it who knows maybe someone my answer it.
Good luck to you

Did everybody quit the BC?

Well, here's my progress report so far http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=Tukzulu:

Things haven't been going so well for the week 3 BC mission. I've run into problems with my dog (she needs surgery) and haven't had much time to do anything. I did go out for a brief sarge the other night. I started up a conversation with a 40 year old lady at the grocery store. It petered out pretty quickly and I didn't have any interest in closing. Then later in the gym, I noticed a girl (HB8.5) I had chatted up before kept looking at me. But everytime I would look at her, she'd quickly look away. Finally, I passed her when I was leaving and I said something about how the exercise she was doing looked painful. And she got the biggest smile I've ever seen and then she laughed. It made me feel good because this girl never smiles and I never see her talk to anybody in the gym. I don't know if all the guys are afraid of her or what. I didn't pursue it because I see her all the time in the gym and I really want to broaden my ability to approach girls who are unfamiliar. But HBgym could be good just to practice on and flirt with.

Last night, I was walking with my gf and noticed three or four girls giving me eye contact. Even girls that appeared to be sitting with their bf's were giving me EC and would hold it until I passed. I'm not sure what that's about, and I can't really approach them due to the logistics. Has my bodylanguage/confidence improved so much that I'm catching their eyes or do girls just randomly stare down guys?

Anyway, I'm making slow progress, but it does feel like progress and that's good. I feel like I actually could do some cold approaches on the street whereas just a few weeks ago I had the feeling that was impossible.

Oh, one other missed approach worth noting. I was on the subway yesterday going to a business meeting. I was hoping I could do some approaches on the subway but I didn't see any HB's. Finally when I got off and was walking to the meeting, I saw a HB7 walking towards me. I was going to aproach her, but something told me not to. Then when I finally found the place I was going to, she showed up in the meeting. Whew, glad I didn't approach. That might've been awkward.

Ok, will try to get the numbers up this weekend. I'm going to shoot for 4 by the end of the weekend.

Week 3 has been going mediocre so far. Nothing good yet but not bad. Day 1 I did nothing becuase my parents were being ****blockers the whole day and making me do chores outside like mowing the lawn and **** like that. Then they wanted to take everyone out to dinner (including my older bro and his new roommate) so couldn't go approach girls. Went to go see a movie that night at the mall. Saw a lot of HB's but they're always with guys every time or in a big group.

Day 2 has been better so far. I went to the library to check out a book on a subject I wanted to learn more about. I approached this HB6 while in the library and after 30 seconds or so of talking she said she had to go. I said oh I'm sorry well cya later.

While looking around at various books and scoping out the place for chicks, I saw this blonde HB8 sitting at a table studying something. It took me so freakin' long to finally approach her but I finally gained the courage to do it. I don't know why it was so hard for me today. But I got in a 2 minute convo with her. I asked some questions about the library in general and then asked what she was doing. Blah blah blah for some financial degree. Then asked if she went to [school] b/c she looked familiar. She said no but already graduated. I knew at that point that she must be much older than me if she is in the middle of doing another degree. So I introduced myself at the end and then told her I'll see her around and left. She seemed really nice and sweet ... didn't come off as *****y at all but still chickened out with the number close. Even if she was too old she was hot.

Then I went to the clothes store to look for some more summer clothes and maybe some nicer clothes to wear. Saw this HB8 walking around. Was thinking about approaching her but chickened out this time. I swear it's so much harder to approach girls in random stores. I have a lot better time at certain places for some reason.

Anyway I need some help and insight here guys ...

Every time I go out and look for girls to approach now, I get this weird ackward feeling like I'm some creepy guy for some reason. I just feel like some creepy guy whenever I approach these women. It just feels so unnatural to me. It seems like a lot of people hook up through friends or whatever these days. Make me wish I had some friends. Anyway, I'm sticking with this. Not going to bail out. I need to realize how much progress I've made with this shyness problem in the last two weeks. It's amazing what this bootcamp has done so far.

Convos For This Week: 1
Total Convos From Week 2 Onward: 9

Going to go scope around while going for an evening swim. Might try to get that one lifeguard's number.

Nothing significant happened so far. I am wrecked 2 days in a row, I did some macking last night but nothing related to the boot camp since I already knew the girl. I'm lacking motivation, because I am going to the vacation on friday so I will have to modify weeks 4 and 5...or even postpone them till I come back.

 

[HypeR]

I've been really busy with work and college, but I managed to talk to 5 girls @ work (cinema) and 1 @ the local bar. No # closes though, wich I think i shouldn't have.

At the bar I was like "oh, i dont know you, who are you?"

At my work I was situational, asking a question about something the girls where talking about.

HB convo's 4/10 ( not 6 because there were 2 sets of 2 included, I count sets as 1 )

Good luck to you all!


EDIT: Where the hell is everyone? How many guys are still in this bootcamp?

 

[Flyer]

I'm still in; though I might have to postpone this week.

Fell off my bike on saturday and open my palms, doctor had to pull off the dead skin and scrub all the gravel out *shudders*.. can't do handshakes.

on the other hand, it'll give them something to ask about..

What do you guys reckon?

Keep at it, or, wait till my hand(s) are healed? (I don't think I can jump straight to hugs as an opener)

Keep it at man, just tell them you can't give a handshake because of that accident.

Two parties last night. One was full of coworkers. I'd talk to those girls and all that but no need to try hard there is no way in hell I would date any of them.

The reason why became even clearer when one of the girls that I've talked to alot got drunk and started making out with another guy who works there who was a total drunken ass at the party.

Almost everybody saw it and was amazed she was making out with this guy who was clearly blitzed. Now I'm sure that will be the talk of work Monday. This poor girl already cemented her repuation as having poor taste (shes new in the department like me)

The guy eventually passed out and puked. Fun for her huh.

The other party was better. I talked to 3 or 4 hot girls including the hostess who invited me. She is real cute but she had to play hostess so our time to talk was limited.

Her friends on the other hand, wow. There was kind of one of each flavor that I like, red head, brunette and blonde and several countries were represented.

THIS ALL BROUGHT UP AN INTERESTING POINT I HADN"T THOUGHT OF BEFORE. When there are 3 or 4 girls that are potential targets and they all are friendly it is important to watch for body language clues to see who might be the most attracted to you. Now the DJ thing is to go for who you are most attracted to, but if you have good impressions of the 3 or 4 and they are about the same ranking, you should try to go for the one that giving you the most indicators of interest.

In this case one was definitely giving me more interest.

BUT WHAT HAPPENED? Well, the bad part was I couldn't isolate any of them. We were all in one room at the party, so I couldn't close for a number.

I ALMOST DID CLOSE THOUGH, a girl needed a ride, and I offered one too her, but she had already called a cab. She tried to cancel a cab so I thought we were good to go, but the damn thing ended up showing up anyways.

I think I'll see this group again sometime though.

In all I'll exclude conversations with my coworkers from this and say I had 4 conversations with hot girls this night. Also one convo with a girl from the internet, but that wasn't in person.

Good night all in all. I wish I could find a good way to isolate and close some of these girls though.

Yesterday was my worst night in a long time and also one of the best in terms of girls.

Bad news: I dont know what the **** got into me, but i just couldnt freakin talk!! I just couldnt even go and approach any freakin girl!! Goddamn it, i was there at this club for 3 whole hours..but No..i guess i left my balls at home. There were atleast 2 easy girls, who were checkiing me out..but **** no..Mr.AFC returns..after a long time, and what do i do ?..say yes to whatever he says....: No dude..she is going to blow you off!!..she has a boyfriend....you dont look good enough...lah..lah...more xcuses.

I felt such a WIMP!..and good thing was i let it hurt me...seeing all the hot chicks make out with Dudes..should i say even geeks....right in front of me.

By the time i recovered, it was almost closing time, but i did go and approach this one HB9, and hit off with her, but she was leaving with her frinds and i didnt do nothing.

Later, i was calling up some buddies and see if there were some after parties going on. And guess what two HB7s approach me and ask if i would like to go to a party with them. I was like whatever, i dont care..and off i go....with two chicks i dont know nothing about....

It was an awesome party though!! It was a very mutlicultural crowd...at someones very nice and expensive place. There were people from Mexico, Spain, Argentina, Portugal and the U.K. Very few americans! Seems like these people are here on various jos, studies and meet up regulary and party European style..means the party STARTS at like 2.30 and goes uptill like 7/8.

There were many hot chicks, but most of them were already hookedup, and being the AFC didnt pursue. In the end , i did make out with both the chicks, that picked me up. One of them was too drunk and crashed. The other later drove me back to my car. She was Mexican and was a lil too old for me( Me: 22..she: 30). She gave me her # and we made out in the car again..i didnt care ..she was cute..plus she promised more parties in the furture so.

It was my worst night in the past two months..i am too broke for now to go out anytime for the next two weeks so, i just want to spend time and improve my game a lil..chat up with more chicks in school etc.

Later guys.

Managed to get in a convo today while at the gym. She was reading a book while working. So I came up to her, got my gym card back, then asked what she was reading. Some book about Africa, blah blah blah. I said oh wow is that for a class or somethin'? She said no. Then I said I was about to say ... that looks like an awesome book to read for a class. Then went on more about how Africa would be a great place for a vacation, etc. Then told her how I see her at the gym almost every time I come, blah blah. Then finally introduced myself at the end and said cya later and walked off. A little over 2 minute convo or so. I need to start trying to make these convos flow a little longer.

I missed like 2 opportunities while at the gym. I'm just glad I got at least one convo in before I would've went home depressed. There was this hot blonde getting some water. Couldn't help but notice her hot legs then I ****in' shyed up. Apparently left my balls at home too.

I've noticed that when I make a goal for myself to talk to people before I go somewhere (like seriously say to myself you must do it), I actually do it. But if I go without boasting myself up before going, then I don't end up reaching my goal but instead half-ass it. It really does have a lot to do with attitude when I'm talking to these girls. Like if I'm not firm about my goal of talking to chicks when I go somewhere, then I only approach them sometimes.

Convos: 2
Total Convos: 10 (OK so now caught up from week 2.)

Forgive yourself and make it better next time. Just remember to bring your balls next time. I'll do the same next time I go out.

Two things that got me down a little - loosing my phone... and getting a barstard haircut! I used to have shoulder length hair... then got it cut to look rough (ended up looking girly), but I'm getting it cut tommorow to look alot more contempoary and neater.

Also the loss of my mobile phone... i had a few numbers that I was relying on for dates, and confidence boosts. In the end though... I guess I've learned that I must rely on game, not results.

Just something you lads might wanna hear... I've sorta figured that the easiest time to chat with people is if you are both in the same situation... ie, both at a bus stop, both getting water at the gym... both standing in a cue, etc. It seems people act a little funny if you plain right approach them.

I've found a centre in my small town that does kickboxing and general martial arts workouts... i'm gonna give that a try tommorow... i'm sure I must meet some new people.

Day 3,

Today I went to the mall and saw an HB7.5 brunette working at GNC. I didn't really need anything, but she looked like she could enjoy a friendly convo. I iniatiated the convo by saying simply hi and asked questions about various products. I eventually shifted the conversation gradually on her and see if she work out, and it turned out that she did. I felt that she enjoyed chatting with me, but I was about 150 miles from my home so no # close.

My second approach in the mall was with another HB7.5 but this time it was blonde. The conversations was minutes max and I wasn't feeling her too much.

As a master student I guess I better work on my thesis and what better place to study than at the coffee area of Borders bookstore. I was there to study but then I overhead two chicks talking about math and having difficulties so I joined in the conversations. The chicks were probably HB4.5 and HB5 and in their low 30's so too old for me...
I joined their conversation by my making a comment about math then I moved the subject to where they were going to school and who was that evil math teacher. It turned out I went to their community college five to six years ago.

My lesson of this day: Always try to sit by girls as it is really easy to jump in the conversations.
My other lesson for myself is to remember the 3 seconds rule and if I do go beyond it I must not overthink and just say hi.

To Redshift,

I can relate to you about the club scene as it can be really tough. I don't have any friends that go out to the bars or clubs so it's tough as I don't want to be the "lone psycho".

I felt like saying to you that you were lucky!

However, this wasn't luck. The fact is, if you have stayed home then nothing would have had happen.


To Metalixia,

When I go to the gym tomorrow I will try going to the water fountain more often and see if I can start a few conversations. In fact, this may actually be a great place to talk since people who go for water are actually taking a little break and they might just enjoy a friendly chat.

 

[redshift]

Kamikaze_R6: Hey man..you are thinking exactly the same manner in which i was thinking before. You DONT need any friends/wingmen to go to clubs! (Although it does help). TRUST ME ON THIS.

I usually go with one of my buddies and his G/F, but last week and the week before that i went in alone and should say did pretty good (apart from saturday's fiasco..that is).

Even before entering the club, while standing in the line, you can make friends..i ended up talking with this group of 2 girls and 3 guys and i was automatically included in their group for the rest of the night. + the fact that you can always go alone and approach pairs of chicks..it doesnt come out as psycho..trust me i used to feel the same..but not anymore.

Try doing it sometime..its a good learning experinece.
