ok guys, hows it goin? this is Rocko postin up mine and Ken88 progress on our own little bootcamp.
We are now on week 3 and its harder then it seems. We decided to go to third street promenade today and although the pickins were slim, we found a few cute girls. We were experiencing some approach anxiety at first, so we decided to push each other, he would find a target for me and vice versa. As we were walking Ken88 pointed out a HB8 in a two set walking our way, unfortunately, i saw her too late and when i approached her, it was from the side so it was already up to a bad start (realized it as i approached, but practice is practice). I talked to her, opened up by saying:
Me: "Hey, im not really from this area, do you ladies no of a good place to eat around here?"
Target: "Oh, were not from here either (turns to some random guy), do you know anywhere good to eat around?"
From there on it was down hill, I tried to keep it going but I didn't really see any IOIs, so we kindly exited ourselves from the conversations. We then saw a Urban Outfitters store that would not doubt have some HB, so we stepped inside. We went to check out the sunglasses there and immediately saw a HB7-8 salesgirl folding clothes. So I opened up:
Me: "Ken88, those glasses look sick on you! (turned to target) What do you think?"
Target: "Oh for sure, aviators never go outta style"
Me: "That's cuz i always wear em, haha. I bet you have a pair like that don't you?"
Target: "Haha, the exact pair"
Me: "So, do you go to school around here?"
Target: "Ya, i go to Santa Monica College, where are you guys from"
BLAH BLAH BLAH (for like 2 min)
Me: "Hey Ken88, I'm gonna go check downstairs for some clothes, I'll see ya soon..."
Here is where he worked his magic (this is now Ken88 talking)
Well somewhere in there Rocko accidently let out the fact that we were in high school. Anyways I just kept pretending to tryi diffrent sunglasses on even though their were jsut 4 diffrent types on the rack. The whole time just making smalltalk. I thought she wasnt interested so I steeped away from her table and looked more at the sunglasses, and all of the sudden she continued the conversation asking what we were doing out in Santa Monica. I kept talking to her asking if there was anything new in the store she thought whe was cool and she showed me a few shirts. Finally after about 5 min had passes I figured f*ck it. I would go for the number even though she was in college!
As soon as I said I had to got and asked for her number I realized I had forgot to ask for her name, but she immideatly said im "name" and gave me her number (with no hesetation).
Questions or Comments on the whole thing, feel free to PM Rocko or me, or you can simply leave a post. :cheer:
O ya, if anyone leaves in the 818 area code, we're gonna be doing this next week (unless one of us can't make it), PM us if you want in...
