Confidence.. the bull with horns of steel

Ah yes.. Good ol' CONFIDENCE. The one thing women like, and the one thing "good guys" want. This topic for the night is up for discussion because of recent talks with friends. We've contemplated our lives as bachelors/bachelorettes sharing moments and discussions of past relationships, future relationships, and present "relationships" .. so i decided to take it upon myself to OUTPUT my INPUT.

Now, first of all, I haven't had much interaction with the other gender due to a recent long-term relationship [no regrets there tho!] but from what I have seen and learned, confidence is VERY important. not only relationship wise, but also throughout life. Meeting THAT girl/guy, job opportunities, interviews, etc. but the most difficult confidence area is meeting other people. I think that once you got that one down, your ready for anything.

Ladies, let me say "I hate you." why? because you have NO IDEA how easy you have it!.. if you know you look good or maybe even just alright, then the chances of guys thinking you look good is even better. so that should be a confidence builder already. So if you are worried about "Does that guy want to talk to me? how come he hasn't said anything?! omg, is my hair ugly?!", stop worrying and step up. I don't know about other guys, but from my perspective, it's AWESOME when the girl has the confidence to come and talk to me *cue Jodeci song* .. some may like the whole idea of chivalry but times changed so help us guys out, okay? BUT, if you like the idea of the guy coming up to you, do us a favor, and give us some sort of sign! a wink, a smile, a little wave.. guys are not as smart/confident/ballsy as you may want us to be.. and if they are, then they are either dicks/players, or if your lucky, actually HAVE confidence [which is a small percentage of us, no lie]. Bottom line, step out.. or help out.

Now guys... *sigh* where do I begin.. how about with me. might as well put myself out there. Pshh, I got nothin' to lose.. I myself have lost many wars against confidence.. many of you may know me as being the "shy guy" or "quiet".. I'm not gonna lie, I still come off as that, but now that I've have gone through many situations and have done NOTHING about it, it's time to change it up. Like I said, I've had little experience in this field so take my ideas/opinions with a grain of salt.. like, take a grain of salt, then smash it with something.. yeah, that small, okay? okay good.

Alright, we've established my situation pretty much.. So here's what I have to say.. now, this is going to be somewhat short and sweet because I know that long blogs are a bitch to read [no joke, if you blog long, the chances of me reading it are very small, unless your opening is interesting]

Confidence with guys.. lets establish the obvious things: 1: dress to impress + hygeine, 2: rejection = learning, 3: start low, aim high [lower your standards at first]. if you don't know what I'm talking about, then stop reading, and figure it out.

The biggest factor in confidence: YOUR BALLS. not literally of course. but just the idea to be bold and well.. confident. There are three things [from what I believe and have learned] are the only three things you need to know:
1: THINK IT
2: BELIEVE IT
3: SELL IT

1: Think it.. Know what you are going to say.. you should already be comfortable in this area after much rejection/learning. If this is still difficult, I find it quite easy after a few shots with the buddies.. I'm not gonna lie, alcohol is your friend, just dont abuse it or it will be your enemy. You don't go into a game not knowing how to play.. duh!

2: Believe it.. Believe that you will come out on top, rather than be rejected. I like to think that women like it when men come up to them with bold statements.. "can I call you sometime?" is changed to "lemme call you sometime.".. "do you want to dance?" becomes "hey, let's dance." .. bottom line: take control.. control = confidence.

3: Sell it.. Your 2/3rd's of the way there! you know what you're going to say.. you believe in yourself.. now USE IT. its that simple. Sell sell sell.. you are up to your neck in reasons you are the good guy, and it's time to make room for women in your life, so sell!

Now I know there's a lot more to it, but like I said, I'm not one to type up a book. So what have I learned? The good ones are as shy as us guys, so make the first move. And for our other good halves, HELP US OUT. like women, nothing is more attractive [hmm.. maybe not nothing ;) ] than a LADY WITH CONFIDENCE.. let me say that one more time.. LADY WITH CONFIDENCE. come and talk to us! or just me, come talk to me ;) .. or at least meet us "good guys" half way, and give us clues.. games are fun, but clues are like a scavenger hunt.. the more clues, the more exciting, the better the outcome for the both of us! Also, HAVE FUN WITH IT, meaning, don't take EVERY interaction seriously.. I like to think that rejection stories are better than the ones that actually work.. cause with rejection, everyone wins: you learn + your buddies get a good laugh... when you get lucky: you win + your buddies hate you [not to your face of course] when you score.

my work is done here.. tune in next time for "why women are such bitches!"... SYKE! gotcha. shes only a bitch if her personality is horrible ;)

mixed nuts = a handfull of goods and bads

It's midnight. The time when everything settles and my mind begins to unravel itself into deep contemplation. So where do I begin?

First things first: I feel sick. not cold sick, but I'm-about-to-throw-up-sick.. I decided to take a break from my long night of studying [okay, so maybe long night means a few hours.. gimme a break!] and watch Cloverfield with some of the guys. Without spoiling anything, here's what i gotta say..
- I get motion sickness pretty easy when it comes to movies like this.. So the movie was a big no no for me me.
- I get MOTION SICKNESS! fuck! okay, I think I'm over that part for now. *cue queezy feeling in stomach*
- good story line. keeps you on the edge thinking "wtf?! wtf?! wait a second.. wtf?! oh shit! omg watch out! wtf?!".. just as long as you can get over the "what?! another POV movie?! aw shit.. sorry guys, I gotta move to the back seats.." [which is what actually happened for me]
- lots of clues in the movie.. you know where to look for them? its called the INTERNET.

overall, disregarding the queezy feeling.. I'd have to give it a 7 outa 10..

Now STAR TREK [dir. J.J. Abrams]... that's the shit I'm waiting for! don't get me wrong, I'm no Trekky [sp?] fan, but like Cloverfield, the trailer has got me hooked already! btw, did anyone notice during the 10,000 B.C. trailer, they were talking english?! really? I didn't know modern english dates back to 10,000 B. friggin C. !!! oh well, I'm still gonna watch it cause I love sabertooth tigers! meow!

NEXT TOPIC [drum roll please..]
lets all spell together now... D-R-A-M-A .. yaye! our favorite topic! grab a blanket and popcorn! the good stuff is about to start! I'm kidding [get used to a lot of those from me].. it's not really drama, it's just... ... . .. confusion? yeah, that'll work for now. As most of you know, I just got out of a relationship. A pretty good one, might I add. Actually, one that was not only worth giving my life up for, but a great learning experience. When it ended, I was the typical mad-as-fuck-ex-boyfriend. Doing the usual talking to "mah boys" and agreeing with the typical things your buds would say to you.. but now, I'm alright with everything.. I've learned SO MUCH from it, that I'm not upset anymore. I've grown into a better person, I like to believe, and just don't regret anything.

but just recently I noticed the worst part. I lost a friend, a best friend actually.. I shared so much with her, and I still wish I could now! I mean, I would share things with her in a heart beat, but she's just not the same anymore. She's been acting like a totally different person. I don't know if it's me, but when we talk, or I ask her simple things, she takes offense to it. I'm REALLY not trying to be a dick.. There's no reason for me to do that! I'm not trying to get back with her, so throw me a friggin' bone here! Anyways, without going into too much detail, I'll just say that if that's the new person she's going to be, then that sucks. It's a waste of a good heart, cause I know the real her is in there somewhere, and hopefully she understands that I'm not here to make her look bad, I'm just trying to let you see that your a better person.

hmm.. not really drama, huh? I guess not. it would be more "dramatic" if I went into detail, but for one thing I respect her as a person and won't go breaking down that barrier.. and also, I'm not that kind of a person.

This is all about me! me, baby.. ME. okay so enough with that. um, shit! this new "afterlife," "beginning," "rebirth," whatever the heck you wanna call it, it has started out nice. For those of you who have been with me recently, you know what I'm talking about.. "we've only just beguuuuunnn.".. I've been doing things that I don't usually do, which is faaaaan-fuckin-tastic! Cause I needed to get outta my usual schedule, so for those who have helped: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! you know you've enjoyed my company.. and I'm just gettin' started! bring on the alcohol! juuuuusst kidding.. [not really.. but really.. no im kidding.. i think ;) ]

well, I've got so much more on my mind right now, but I have to make like titties and bounce [yeah thats right! I said it! bring on the feminist!]... btw, i started that one :) but probably not something I should be proud about.. okay, I have to make like hockey players and get the PUCK outta here!.. It's late, I'm queezy, and I still have to study! so to all a good night! and for those of you "gettin' some" ... I HATE YOU :)

devirginized..!!!

hmm.. so this is how it starts, huh? well.. here's my story. My first reason for joining blogger was to find a certain group blog with some friends.. but, seeing that it is 3 in the morning, there's no chance of contacting those who are in it, or finding the damn thing. so how do i kill time? what do i do if i can't speak my mind with my friends? where can i talk mad shit about people and get away with it [just kidding.. not really.. but really.. no im kidding.. but really. hah!]..

answer: RIGHT HERE! in my own blogger! so far it seems like another xanga or friendster.. and those didn't work out so well.. but now that im older and not using blogs just to meet people, i can meet people AND bitch about my problems.. great, right? hah. so I shall update this thing now that I have MORE time on my hands.. hopefully keeping up to date with the things going on in my life. I'm sure I'll be back on here tomorrow to update since this is my "new best friend".. and hopefully find what I was initially looking for, that damn group blog. REAL TALK! alrite, time for sleep. long day in the library tomorrow.
