HELL YEAH!
I though that I couldn't go up to 10 approaches, but I actually did. Once I get started and the momentum is on, it gets easier and easier. Hell yeah! Feeling good. I did 11 approaches and got approximately 7 names. To my eyes, the most important part was approaching. As long as I approached, I already won. I didn't care really about the results. I just did what I had to do. I was direct. I liked the fact that I asked for their names directly instead of guessing some random name and leaving like I used to do.
The good ones went like this :
Me : Hey! How are you?
Her : Good
Me : What's your name?
Her : Hum... *looks around smiling* (name). Why? x)
Me : Ohhh! I though you were Roberta! Sorry wrong person.
Her : Haha okay! XD
Me : Bye!
Her : Bye!
There was this HB7 asian girl. She was probably in her twenties. She acted so repelled haha. I was feeling pretty low anxiety at this moment. It felt great! I didn't care about the rejection and I took it very well.
Me : Hey, how are you?
Her : *looks at me, looks straight and ignore. Keeps walking*
Me : Hey, what's your name?
Her : ...Why do you want my name? ******y face, keeps walking*
Me : Oh it's because, I though you were Roberta.
Her : *looks at me weird while continuing walking*

It made me realize that there are SO many girls out there. That girl named Carly that I used to like, I saw her the same day at the mall and I realized that... this girl I used to get crazy over really isn't that pretty. Seriously! Same goes for Mel, that girl that refused to date me. She's pretty, okay, but she isn't the only one. There are other gorgeous ones in this world.
My friend Casta is THE best friend ever. He also did his 11 approaches and got maybe the same amount of names. He's down to take the bootcamp seriously 'till the end. So am I! We will go on 'till the end.
When I'll get to the 13th week, I'll remember this first post. I'll remember this and I'll realize how much I changed. I'll be so proud.
Anyway guys, hope it went well for all of you. If you didn't reach 10, it doesn't matter. As long as you feel like you learned something and gained experience, this is what really counts. As long as you progress constantly.
I'M READY FOR WEEK 2! BRING IT ON.
For 2012, I'm making no excuses.
