I won't lie, it is exactly 00:16. I have missed the deadline, unfortunatly I discovered your GH thread only thirty minutes ago and I felt I should read through it before applying for the bootcamp as it would be foolish to sign up for it without knowing the way you worked. I shall take the chance, I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
I am 21, I live in the UK and I am a university student. I really do no know what I want in life, for so many years I wanted to go into the IT industry, but after a year of computer science I saw it was not for me, so I changed to film studies, I don't want to have a career in film, but I wanted to stay in university. My father is a well off business man and I will always have that to fall back on but I would rather find my own way.
Everything about me is average and that has suited me fine until now. Recently I have decided I want more for my life, I have been trying to get out there and make more friends and find new hobbies and interests.
I found the community because I wanted to meet women, I am at university afterall, maybe one of the best opportunities I will have in life.
As I moved along my path of discovery I realised to myself that I was not satisfied with what is essentially a fairly shallow goal (or is it?). I want to improve myself, my life, my attuitude. I am trying to stay positive all the time, being negative just breeds even more negativity. I try to get some my friends to
Whether I like it or not, women are an important factor, perhaps more than I wish were true. When I got my first girlfriend, my confidence was boosted 100% and that affected everything in my life, but eventually the relationship ended and I suffered oneitis despite it being me that ended it. That took me many months to get over, enough about that sob story, I'm sure every person here has had a similar tale.
I will achieve my goal eventually with or without anyone's help, if it takes years then so be it. A little help would go a long way.
It is the wisdom of life that I seek, not the "get laid quick" methods. Sapien, you have so many stories and analergies that it boggles my mind, you have so much knowledge and wisdom and if I could learn 1/10 of that I would be on the way to becoming a better man.
It has taken me a while to write this and I feel as if I have yet to convey the point I intended to make.
Oh nuts, I guess I should have read all of this thread too, it looks like I am too late.
Maybe next year.....
What is it about your friends you think is so AFC? What are they rubbing off onto you?
