SUP GUYS. Jaedon, I not only rap now, I MAKE REALLY ****TY BEATS. HOW COOL IS THAT??

Alright so you probably read about my day game in the bootcamp thread. 18 or so names, and I'm proud of it. So now comes the fun part.

Met up with my friend Jake at his apartment. He had the 4-person place to himself last night. He had a party to go to with the crew team (rowing, Olympic style, I used to do it). He said he'd drive to the party later, so we played videogames and I pregamed with rum that I brought. (Saw today that it was about 6 shots, I use a water bottle with oz measurements on the side.)

We got over there, it was already pretty busy. I walked around, met all the girls and forgot their names almost immediately. I started drinking, and continued to drink slowly for most of the night. All of the details on this are hazy, so excuse it being very unclear. I'll probably describe many of these situations as general tips, because they occurred many times, and I don't remember what I said in each particular instance. I will say that I often got the comment "Wait you're still in high school! You're cool as fvck man!"

I vibe really well in parties, I'm learning to keep my energy level one step above those in my vicinity. Never let it drop to one step below. I didn't play beer pong. Don't play beer pong unless your target is on your team, but if someone else is playing beer pong, pick a team and pick specific people and call things about them. "These guys right here are my boys! They're about to have such an easy win. Especially this dude, he's gonna make every shot. The other team is still gonna be sick with it though, it'll be close." That'll give you a sense for how I act around a beer pong table. Celebrate made shots, switch between dismissing missed shots as luck or mocking the player for them. Don't be too mean, but don't be a suck up.

On the dance floor, one kid started it off by showing off his shuffling. There's naturally some ebb and flow in terms of dance floor mood. I'm learning to sense this cycle. The best time to come in and start dancing is when some people are dancing, but not many. It needs to be as the floor is starting an upward trend. People have been around beer pong or in the kitchen long enough, and they want to dance again, so you can be one of the first people to get some attention and bring the level up. Don't stick around as the dance floor dies down, you can enter it when its at full blast, but it's hard to get any attention that way, everyone has already developed their own thing.

One thing I did late in the party on the dance floor was I saw that there was one mixed group of average girls and guys dancing, then a group of four hot girls dancing by themselves. AFC's were too intimidated to move in, the alphas were off doing other things (this is why an alpha should not play beer pong. Loses opportunities). I come into the middle and say "Yes! Thanks for making a circle for me!" then kinda do my own thing for a minute. I do liquid/pop inspired dancing, but none of the liquid hand motion, it won't work, it's show-offy. Once the joke of dancing in the middle had died down a little, some other guys had come and joined the circle.

I just kept chillin, I think I forgot a couple girls' names so I got them again. I jokingly danced by grinding my as$ into the hottest girl's crotch. Worked well and was funny, I joked that she had a ****. A few minutes later, as my new AFC friend dances beside his average target, I grind the proper way with the hot girl. I knew she wasn't seriously interested in me, so I made sure that I ended it first, so show her that I wasn't saying "Love me tonight! Please!" just "Let's have fun!"

I freestyled outside with one dude. Another guy was pretty good at beatboxing. At least one girl heard but whatever, I knew it wasn't the right time to milk that for attention. If you have talents, you need to know when to present them and when to keep them hidden.

(One guy brought Jim Bean. That stuff is AWFUL. Had a shot outside, threw up all my beer. Thank god I did or this morning would have been rough. Plus only guys saw it. Swished some toothpaste around my mouth in the bathroom and it was all good.)

THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT, I get back around to the dance floor, one girl, HB8, who was dancing very well earlier with the most alpha guy in the place, called me out specifically. She goes "Josh!" and holds out her hand over people. I take it, and without a word we go over to a bookcase, and she holds onto it while I dance behind her. It got sexual very quickly, I had my hand rubbing her side under her shirt and made her hold my beer. She is really good at moving to the beat, but she kept wanting to get low. I would follow her a certain distance, but at times it was too far for me. I'd grip her a little more firmly, get close to her ear and say "Wow, look at you..."
That's a sort of ambiguous phrase and it worked really well, she loved it. Got my lips onto the top of her ear, smelled her and got my face into her hair on the side of her head. Very sexual vibe.

Apparently we kissed, she said that we made out (and said it in front of people a few times, so that's nice social proof) but I don't really remember it. I don't think it was very long. At the end of the song I took my beer back and went outside.

MY MISTAKE was talking a little trash about her to a guy, Alex, that I thought was cool. I said that she was easy, and I didn't want to catch anything. It was a joke, but he told her. Also he told me that he told her. So I called him a d!ck for the rest of the night and often gave him the middle finger, but we also shook hands and agreed that we had a love/hate relationship.
Soon after he told me, I was with the two of them in a hallway, many other people around. There was really only one way to handle it well, and that was to confront it, so I kept up solid kino, put my hands around her waist and pulled her toward me some (she pulled away lol) and said "Hey, so I heard you were mad at me, what's up with that?" She goes "No it's fine, don't worry about it" and I plowed a little bit. I played off the accusations with a joking "I would NEVER say something like that, come on." but I didn't extend it very long and smacked her as$ as I left. Touched her occasionally through the night but nothing more.
When we said bye, later that night, I stay simple with it, hugged and said "It was nice to meet you. You're very cute, have a good night." So I think I left her with a good impression, not that it matters.

Two other girls worth noting.
One was from before the above highlight. Kind of fat, sort of a back-up girl I guess. Talked with her and her friend, they had just started rowing. She said she was really good and had done great on her 2000 meter piece. Sometimes fat girls actually do have great times. I asked her time, she said I had to tell her my best one first. I didn't, and kept up with her first for a while. At one point when I came back to her though, she asked again, and I told her. Mine was my serious, best time, that I worked hard for. Hers was about what you would expect from a fat girl doing a hard work out. It was awful. Failed that sh!t test and nothing went anywhere.

The other girl was named Taylor (looks just like another girl there, I got their names mixed up, but apparently a lot of people do). We were cool and friendly through most of it, at the end we danced together some, I played with her hands and we held hands for a few seconds. She really wanted me to play one song, I said she would have to be nice to me if I did, and she said "Yeah, I will. If you play Chris Brown I'll go crazy for you." Apparently I played the wrong version though, whatever.
We had a brief talk sitting together, where she stressed that I was in high school, and so was her little brother, and that she was a sophomore in college. Would have gotten a close if not for that.

After that party died down, I went with Jake and one other guy (John, very cool dude, approximately who I expect to be in freshman year) to another "party." We met up with two girls on the way that Jake knew, one Indian and cute, the other redheaded, Southern and cute but braces. They were so incredibly annoying. Airheaded, singing, obnoxious people. I relate to maturity and had a really hard time connecting with them, though I tried.

We went to John's friends' apartment (very long walk, I had been walking all day). There were 3 girls there, and 2 guys. One clearly wasn't going to get any, but neither was I. I was dead tired from walking, had no energy, no social proof, and crashed with every move I could try to make.

Jake pulled some moves, and we were able to bring the obnoxious girls back to his place. No way I was getting laid though, but I did a little winging and said I wanted to sleep so that Jake had an easy excuse to go back to his room with the Indian one. The redhead had a guy from the "party" come to Jake's. I'm sure they fvcked and I crashed on the couch.

Went to a college night at a museum today with the fat-ish girl who hit me up a little while back. Decent art. I had thought about approaching and getting names, but it wasn't a priority. Opened two girls on the walk over there, by asking one about the story she had been telling. Opened one guy as he groomed his hair in a mirror. Opened a photographer and asked him to take a picture of us. Probably got another insubstantial few in there. Not real victories, but I'm trying to make "opening when convenient" a new habit in my life. Once I can do it casually, whenever I'm with people, I'll be on track to meet all kinds of new people.

Met up with Kazi and Cam there. Kazi is cooler than ever, he just got new ink on his arm, it looks great. Their sense of style is better than mine, more refined and cool. I need to work up to that.

Wear speedos, to tan your cheeks.

Okay, I connect to both maturity and immaturity. Because I have an inner child. Be playful/sexual.

Use everything that happened at that first party as an excuse for sex.

Lolwtf. Never kiss and tell. Ever. Unless it's vague like, oh, one time with this girl I...

Once you hook up, isolate and hook in. Like a grappling hook. Lame huh? Anyway, just go for one girl like a mofo and plow like you get paid for it. Never sleep alone when there's *****es to bone.

Yeah, it'll take practice.

Didn't get this part.

Yup. And more so, I judged her for her sexuality. Really bad move and I can see that now. I could blame it on the alcohol, but at least I remember and can improve.

Small encounter today. Didn't go to the mall because I stayed after school with my ceramics teacher, doing a firing with some kids and a teacher that drove an hour to fire with him (he's a big deal). I really know what I'm doing (I function as an assistant for him) so that was cool, I guess.

Three female students, one guy. The guy was very high value and was dating the hottest girl. Made sense, he was a cool dude. Neither of the other two were anything special. One was average, the other was chubby. Didn't talk much, just kinda zen-ed out with my teacher while they talked about school stuff. It wasn't awkward or anything, and I talked to them, I just wasn't running ****.

Still, I got a few minutes alone with the two single girls. The chubby one had been giving me subtle IOI's (choosing to stand next to me at times, etc) and the other one was interested, but acting distant because she didn't know how to express it (I'm realizing that often the most cold girls are the most interested in you). Had a great conversation with them just before I left. The average one mentioned a sculpture project she was working on, I could have easily said "That's cool! I want to see that, let me get your number, you can send me pictures when it's finished" and then gotten the other girl's number so she wouldn't feel left out.

But I didn't think of it. No big. I have detention after school tomorrow but I'll try to go game anyway.

Had detention today. Found out the only other rapper at my school had been rapping while I was in there.

I've decided I'm going to push my rapping thing to the fullest now. I will rap tomorrow for people, and another time this week. This is my ticket to cool, and I need to milk it NOW. People have been forgetting I rap at all, my nickname has died down. This is IT.

Sweet, but don't bank it all on one skill. People's minds and tastes change surprisingly fast. And rapping your way into ladies' hearts may not work as well as you get older.

You know me better than that ;)

But I'm coming from a big hole here at my school. I'm not only not-popular, I'm definitely unpopular. Rapping is the way to go.

(Most people I know have never heard me rap. I have another strong skill in ceramics that I plan to base my artistic career around. Social skills are the number 1 priority at this time in my life. I got you :) )

EDIT: I do have one thing to report. Reopened a very old contact. I got one meet-up with this girl (she posted on my facebook wall, Grace if you're friends with me. She's average looking if you're not) and I screwed it up by friend-zoning myself. Well I'm not going to do that this time. Here's our text conversation last night (fb chatted her, she posted on my wall saying it wasn't working, and then I text her)

Me: Obviously the solution is to text me. Now that youre 18 can we go to a strip club together?
Her:Um fvck yes!
Me: Oh thank god. Ive been needing to get up on the pole for ages
Her: Ahaha I would so shove dollars in your panties
Me: Thanks babe but there arent enough dollars in the world. I thought of you for a really weird reason a while back
Her: Tell me
Me: Met a drunk, truck driving drug dealer [not even going to bother explaining]
Me: He seemed right up your alley
Her: Did you give him my number?? I like drinking, reckless driving, and drugs! He's perfect
Me: Hahaha no, but if you find a girl that likes cooking, sucking d!ck and doing what shes told, let me know, we'll have a double date!
Her: I know a couple mexicans. I'll send you their pics. Mexican women are always subservient *****s. Its because they know they are the lowest breed of human
Her: A woman and a beaner.
Me: Oh yesssss i love pvssy that smells like tacos
Her: That's the most attractive thing you've ever said
Me: What can i say, i know how to make da pvssy wet. Buenas noches
Her: Goin to bed niggahhhhh?

Yeah, she's kinda racist. But she hangs with a kinda hood crowd, so I forgive it. She likes the trashy talk, obviously, so that could get sexy quick. I think she noticed babe and thought I was trying to run game, but I think I handled myself well regardless. Will be giving her space now, definitely not going to over-text this one, I can take my time.

She's just strange. My gut tells me she's bad news.

Maybe. I got the impression of a very nice, genuine and sweet girl in person though. Maybe I was wrong, maybe she just has a strange sense of humor, there are all kinds of options. I'll see how far I can take this anyway, there's no consequences if I screw up.

Didn't rap today in school. It was raining so I didn't go out gaming. There's still time in the day to try that though.

I've had a hard time sleeping the past couple nights. I think it's because I haven't had enough physical exercise. I have a basic routine of push-ups, pull-ups and dumbbell cleans that I can do in my room. I'll get back to that approx every other day. I wish I had another motivated guy that lived close to me, there's a gym right down the street but I probably won't go there often by myself.

Try some gymnastics stuff at home. Read "Building the Gymnastic Body".

I'd love to have a set of bars in my room, but unfortunately my dad does not share my enthusiasm for improving my body.

Big news.

I organized an act for my school's talent show. 4 guys rapping, my friend is making the beat. I could not have chosen better people for this.

One guy, black guy named Cam whose birthday party I went to once, is really good, agreed to join me. He's very alpha and interesting.

Got Richard, the coolest kid from that school that freestyles at their parties. He started it with everyone, and he's easily the best one there.

Cameron, the only freestyling kid at my school. He's in the top three or four most high value guys at my school. Will be great to be associated with him, especially since these other guys are MY friends, and they're really good.

It'll also be great for them to meet one another, and I'm the only common thread between them. I will come off very well to really cool people, and that's awesome.

My friend Grant is making the beat. He's not as musical as another guy I could have contacted, but he has good sense, and he'll work hard to make sure it's the exact beat that we want and need. Not a cool guy, really, but he's behind the scenes.

This is going to be the coolest experience.

NICE MAN!
Talent shows are great opportunities to show the public what you're capable of. I will attend 2-3 of these at my school. I'm so excited, and you probably are too haha. Make it count and be pro!

This is one of the things I see people doing on their mission to be cool - don't shun your "not cool" friends. Bring 'em up with you, make sure everyone knows them too, help 'em out.

Don't just shove them behind the scenes.

I really don't understand this criticism. If you met him, you'd know why he's behind the scenes, he was certainly not shoved there. I'm asking for his input at every stage of this process. I will certainly put his name out after the event and give him full credit for his part. He's a friend of mine, he's enjoying this too.

Jaedon, yeah. All the "cool"ness is definitely imaginary, but I have it running through my head so I write about it. I know I'm cool as fvck, cause I run with this crew now, and I'm that high quality of a person, but "cool" is really not an adjective worth considering.

I know what you are talking about, I have a buddy who admires me at school because I can approach girls at school with ease, so I often get pounds from some womanizers who acknowledge my skill in that department. So I started showing him that he too can do it, literally opening girls infront of him and all but to be honest, like Slowly said, some people just enjoy being in the background. You try your best to bring 'em to standard but they never step up to the plate.

SO FRUSTRATED. I was invited to a party earlier today. Then they said that they couldn't get girls and called it off.

I talked to a kid about a basketball game between his and my school, and we transitioned from cheerleaders into this party that he's going to. Basically he invited me but I'd need to bring girls (I could probably still force the invite, but I'd look like a tool. Should I care?). All the girls that would go with me live about an hour away from this spot. All the girls at my school live 20 minutes away. Not enough connections. Very frustrated, feeling very trapped and very rushed. It's 10pm, soon my parents won't let me go anywhere tonight.
