Week 1, Day 7
Well, I didn't finish Week 1 so I'm going to use next week to try and finish it. I was out of town the last two days and very busy, but I was still rather productive with the Boot Camp. I said some Hi's and had some good conversations too. I'm going to credit myself 5 Hi's and that puts my total at 12. I need 38 more. Sorry I can't keep up the pace, but hopefully I am improving.

Exercise 1: went to the mall and walked around for 1/5 hour, looking at peoples’ eyes and making eye contact with as many people as I could. I found that most people will not look at your eyes, I made fleeting eye contact with 5 people (out of probably 100), who would see my eyes and look away within one second.
Exercise 2: said hi to 5 people while rock climbing outside as they walked past on the trail. They’re very open to saying hi, maybe it’s a common bond of outdoorsy-ness. 45 to go!

End of week one: I have 37 hi's out. I am calling myself out I did not put as much effort into it as I should have. I will finish those 13 hi's and do week two convo's this week as well. Let's all get out there and do this.
One good thing that did happen-although too bad the girl is like 16, I was at a coffee shop this morning and the hottie behind the counter had a tired/sour look on her face so when she asked me if I wanted anything else I said a smile. Her face lit up and the entire time I was in there she would look over at me and smile.

I'm in
I started week one on Thursday but I've already got the 50 hi's and E/C so I'll just say I'm finished today and start week 2 with everybody else.

I definately managed to get the ECs, but im not so sure about the total nnumber of his, at times it quite hard to keep on counting them. I went to, what you would call a mall (although probably sighlty smaller), a shopping centre today and walking outside i got so much EC and did a lot of his as well. This is why we do it, for that thrill that ou get when you hold it for longer or get acknowledgemnt from a stranger of your prescence.
You are no longer no one, a invertabrae in the crowd, instead you almost command attention. I love that thrill. Dont bottle out, everyone should keep going on this as it is so wonderful.

Week 1, Day 7
Went out for boot camp training twice today and the results?
Well the first outing i went to the mall and it was fairly crowded but every hb was there with there family it seemed
then when ever i had a chance to get a hi out i choked! it was very fustrating..couldn't pull myself to do it no matter what....but was finally able to get one on this chick...on a positive note i finished my eye contact for the most part on this outing
the second outing i went awhile later so i could regather myself...i go to campus and since this weekend was graduation there were people still out...i worked really hard on this outing and was in better spirits....i got a total of 12 hi's out this outing (10 were hb's) ...i put the most effort in this outing than any of the other ones i have in this bootcamp (didn't finish cause finding people started to become hard)
Any how 15more hi's to go then week 2!

This probably was not an ideal time to start the Boot Camp, what with finals and whatnot, but it'll only push us harder. If you find yourself reaching for a T.V. remote, slap yourself in the face immediately and drop it. You have better things to be doing; if you're not studying, get as much DJing in as possible.

Week 2 day 1
Not much happened today. Went to check out a job opportunity at a retirement home, and had a 40 second convo with the manager. Other than that, nothing. Last night I was pretty happy about finishing week 1 but that confidence seems to have evaporated this morning. Kinda pissed at myself for not trying harder but there's always another day. Gotta keep trying..

Finished week 1 today and I'm starting week 2 tomorrow!
Something i learned thats important to success in bootcamp or just success in general is to set some goals.
First, make up your long term boot camp goals or whatever it is you want to get out of bootcamp. Then make up your short term boot camp goals...these are basically what you want to accomplish in a day (These are important because when you add them all up they equal your long term goal)
It would be in everyone's best interest to post there long term boot camp goals here for everyone to see and write them down as well and keep them in a place where you'll constantly see them. Short term goals don't need to be posted but every morning write down what it is you want to accomplish with bootcamp for that particular day....(Ex) for tomorrow mine is to talk with 3 strangers for at least 2minutes
and my long term bootcamp goals
EFFORT'S BOOTCAMP GOALS
1. To no longer fear approaching females i find attractive
2. Have the confidence to approach a chick in any situation, establish a good rapport, and leave with her number
3. Become better at communicating with people in general
and remeber that your goals will probably change as you make progress so its ok to change them!
The best of luck boot camping to everyone!
