postpone

you might have noticed that I've stopped posting my progress through the challenges. That's because I can't be assed, I'll start up again once rob is here and then it will be fun ;)

in the meantime, find me a good online calendar that I can access from everywhere and displays in a nice public place, ideally a decent ap on facebook, or something nice somewhere else. And not google!

Day 4

Well... this is proving to be a tricky one. Not because the challenges are hard, but because the hot water in my house has gone! Can't have a shower without hot water. I could however do the rest of the main challenge, which is to get girls to tell me where to shop! I might go do this now actually, I wanted to buy some stuff in town anyway....

See you when I get back!

day off

so, after waking up very late and ignoring my challenges I've decided that I'll do day 4 tomorrow!

EDIT:

yesterday was pretty simple stuff as well, did the small talk, remembered some eye colours, although they were all brown...

05/09/2008

this day was easy. don't shower and don't shave.

Needless to say I didn't this morning, but I'm going out tonight so I will be soon. I think the purpose for that exercise was for people stuck in a routine. However for me, the concept of not showering or shaving (esp shaving) is not really a big one.

Speak more betterer English. I don't think I have problems with my speech, but I did a few of the exercises, I think I talk proper awesome like.

Moviefone - fuck that, he obviously hasn't ever called a random person in _birmingham_ and damned if I'm going to get abuse from horrible chavs!

More self hypnosis - need to download this still, maybe I will, maybe I won't.

Roll on day 4

Day 2

lots more writing today :(

3 acomplishments:

get signed with a band, go on tour, pass uni

why these will make me happier:

Get to play music for a living, get to see the world and play a lot of music, finally get a degree!

I will become a professional bassist who will get signed (to a good deal) within 2 years

I will have sold 20,000 albums

I will have played over 500 gigs

I will have earnt lots of money

I will persue this mission because if I don't:

my sex-life will decrease

my social-life will suffer

my uni will fail

But if I do do it now then

my sex-life will increase

my social life will improve

my uni will pass

Ok, that's all of that filled in, now I have to download some meditation thing, and talk to 5 more strangers with added eye contact. Good thing I'm going out today!

Day 1

I think other people percieve me as:

confident, a bit wierd but not in a bad way, sometimes a bit too wacky, smart

I'd like to be percieved as:

Confident, smart, calm, collected - cool!

3 behaviours/characteristics to change:

Over-excitable, bad habits, inapropriateness

3 new behaviours I want:

never get embarrased, stay calm, be cool.

Well that wasn't too hard. I still need to make smalltalk with 5 strangers, but as I'm unlikely to leave the house I don't know if I'll do that! The reading part will be easy though!

See you tomorrow!

Stylelife Challenges

So, after reading the game a couple times I thought I'd buy the second book - The Rules of The Game. And now, as I'm single again I'm going to do the Stylelife Challenges

I know you're all thinking that it's a 'how to pick-up girls' book, and to a certain extent you're correct. But what guy doesn't want to know how to pick up girls better? So as an experiment I'm going to be doing these challenges, hopefully with a couple of friends of mine, to see what it does to us, will we become new people, sex machines, man hos' of the worst kind? Or will it simply help us to overcome shyness, and more confident?

Either way, I'm doing it. Fuck you if you think it's lame or un-cool.

I'll be posting my thoughts on each days challenge here, so keep up to date!
