DAY 13 - DAYTIME - Improv & mass passive attraction
(I've been fine-tuning my body-language lately and it has showed great effect)
After some kickass workout this morning, I felt extremely chill. Later I went to the bookstore and interesting enough, I was extremely focused in whatever I was doing. I remembered much more of what I read and listened to. Almost no distractions could enter my attention.
My senses were heightened.. what a great state to be in!
Got reminded by Giacomo Casanova of being aware of all my senses all the time. "Life is about living, to experience with all of your senses to the utmost".
In the middle of my studies the Chinese girl, who was supposed to come with me to improv tonight, declined with,
her: Hey James, I can not go with u today
(2 hours later)
me: xyz! No problem. I'm so tired today! Not sure why.. but I gonna go anyway. I can sleep when I'm dead. How's your job treating you?
(1 hour later)
her: I have to over work today (joyful smiley)
Anyways, after I finished at the bookstore I went to the improv class for my second time.
When people were waiting for it to begin, this tall Chinese dude comes over to me and ask me something in Chinese.
me: yeah, this is the improv
He was a friendly tall (2 meters) guy. His first time at improv.
(I have no freaking idea why, except that they usually are very friendly.. but I always make friends with tall guys and I'm only 1.70m)
This times improv there were a lot of imagination exercises and fast thinking.
- Say a word and the person next to you say another word, associated with it. I.e. apple.. pear… green.. trees… birds.. sky… blue etc..
- Giving an invisible gift to the person next to you (in whatever way you can imagine) and the person would say, "ohh thank you this is a [insert thing]..."
- Fun competitive fast reaction game: you stand against another person and there's a judge asking a question i.e. "what's your favorite color?" or "where in the world do you want to go the most?" or "who do you want to kiss in the morning?"
The answer has to be logical but it doesn't matter if you answer red or black, China or Holland, me or my girlfriend. After the answer you say bam bam! and then the person who's slowest dies.
A very interesting exercise related to game… Thinking fast but doesn't matter what you say as long as you say something related to it and you cannot be affected by the opponents initiative because you'll get shoved in your head…
After the improv there were a standup comedy show
I went up to the bar to get a ginger ale, with the tall guy and we began to talk to 3 interesting americans, who also joined the improv class, late. 1 were black, big and fun, 1 were hot, small and asian, 1 were old, experienced and friendly.
So we had our little exchanges of conversation with them and then I told the tall dude that we should take these two seats and watch the show.
After 5 mins, the 3 americans came and were standing behind us to see the show. The little, hot, asian told the tall guy to give her his seat because he's so tall and blablabla and the black guy also said some weak stuff…
She wanted to sit beside me.. aww… but it was quite rude to try to push the tall friendly guy away. He even looked at me for support.
I didn't do anything but was completely aware of what was happening. It is my experience that tells me to let the weaker learn to manage themselves, to let them not to look for others to help them in their own small decision-makings. So they can be strong themselves and not rely on others.
The tall guy was about to move in the beginning but as nothing decisive happened the girl eventually said, "I was just kidding…"
Anyways, the show started and the cute, brunette hostess in hotpants gave me intense eye-contact every time she was on stage.
The show had a few fun comedians and continued for over an hour. I had some great laughs. The time was around midnight.
I got hungry and tired in the end, so I stood up, surrounded by people, and walked towards the exit. In my pathway this blonde stared at me with wide eyes while I walked towards her direction.
I got something to eat back at the hotel restaurant. I saw 3 gorgeous, stylish girls sitting with a 1588¥ big champagne. They were sitting outside, probably celebrating something. "Interesting" I thought.
Eventually a 30's-40's guy sat with them and I figured that he must have been their sugar-daddy. I had weak thoughts about approaching them.
When I went up to pay I look back, over my shoulders and hit eye-contact with one of the gorgeous girls who just walked in. It was like sex when we looked at each other that moment.
I was walking behind them as we were walking out of the restaurant. They were tall.. probably models. She was quite drunk though and I let a possible opportunity slip, once again.
It's time for more spontaneous adventures……………..

It's time for more spontaneous adventures……………..
1. Do whatever you want.. risk whatever your gut tells you because.. you know you have good intentions.
2. Pressure forms the man.
3. Clarity gives space for better decisions.
