Days 80 - 82
We had a trainee in our geometry class, giving us 4 hours per week for 2 weeks. Day 81 (yesterday) was his last day with us. Our geometry teacher always tried to drag him down. She was very mean with him! I decided with one friend that we would offer him a bottle of wine for his last day. Alcohol is prohibited in our school and I feared that my geometry teacher would tell me something if she saw me giving the trainee the bottle of wine. But I had to do it because everybody I was the one who had the bottle. So at the end of the course, I went to the trainee and told him that all the people in the class were thanking him and wishing him a good luck. He was so happy! Such a big smile on his face! Made my day
I have contacted the team about OAA and it should be OK to run it. I said I would wait Shannon advice but I did not want to wait anymore, this fear of approaching is really awful! So I'm now running OAA for Gay Men along with AM5. I hope the results will be there! I'm 40 minutes into OAA right now
Apart from that, I now notice that I sometimes walk slower and that I now take other people into consideration when I'm saying something. What I mean by that is that I always step back before saying something thinking "What does he want to hear?". That way I'm more smooth with people I find.
I think I will try to go out during the week with one of my girl friend. Hopefully OAA will slowly make me approach guys.
Have a nice Week End,
