Report #1

Well I was going to combine the 2 exercises into 1 but I think I need to take it slower than that - I didn't feel like I could just say 'Hi' to random people. So I went out this morning around the town centre and the shopping centre for around an hour.

I attempted EC at least 50 times if not more. I found that most people just didn't even look my way, quite a lot of people looked down. I seriously only got maybe 4 extended EC's with random people, and there were no HB's about at all, not 1!!

Man this sh1tty little town is so depressing!! The people around here are fcuking miserable I guess I didn't pick the best time to go - a Monday morning. The place is just full of old people and unemployed people dossing around, oh and high school kids on half-term. Thank fcuk I am moving to London in 2 months time!!

I don't seem to have much problem in trying to establish EC with people, although I haven't really tried HB's yet. I need to get another hour in over the next few days.

hmm that would be to girls right? cuz looking at a guy for that long is kind of wierd lol unless you want to start a fight lol

Ha, ha!:crackup:

Yeah, its goes for both, even if your not gay. You need to stare down your opponent so he knows who is the Alpha-male!

Some of the biggest guys will look away from you, and give you more respect because you stare them down. It shows that your not afraid of them.

I even did this to a "gangster" type (stereoticaly called), he was white. Next time he was afraid of looking at me thinking I might kick his @$$.

In all my experiences, no guy as answered back saying, "Why are you staring at me," from what i can remember. If they do (this only happens with girls) then i'll say,"I should be asking you the same question!"

O, a fight was never started. Smile or nod or even give him/her a whats' up nod.

Interesting whyshy, I'll keep that in mind.

well heres my report for day one, I had school today, then went to canadian tire to pick up some stuff, so I tried to make EC with everyone in the store. Most of them looked away as soon as I made I contact with them there wasn't once that they could hold it for more than 2 seconds and o yea there were no HB there so it wasn't much fun haha. Next stop tmr.. the malls =)
