"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Well I noticed several items in Spiff's astonishingly well planned guide to perfection that I myself made one based entirely upon his. This is especially difficult since I was so...perfect, and just recently started to decline. It's kind of a depressing. But anyways, I'll have to get back on track despite the summer's copious amounts of free time having disappeared.

Well there are, as some know, three main areas in life: body, mind, and soul. It's these areas that I'll be dividing my development upon. So without any further ado, here's my road map to improvement.


Body (Uphill)


1. Tan: I have terrific skin that gets tan quickly and easily. Unfortunately, it goes both ways. Without time to go outside and frolic I'm noticeably pale which adversely affects other skin issues I haven't had to deal with until recently. So I’ll be resorting to superficial means. No, not that rub-on crap. That junk doesn’t work.

2. Skin Care: My atypical intake of vitamin D has caused me to lose some skin health and, as a result, I recently had a minor break out. It's gone now but the blemishes remain. I ordered some Proactive, began a proper diet, and am making an effort to get enough sun so that hopefully I'll have my perfect face back soon.

3. Teeth: My teeth aren't bad, but again, now that my skin is fairer they don't contrast as well and I envy people that have that blinding smile. So along with getting darker I purchased a recommended tooth whitening agent that worked very well for one of my female friends.

4. Vitamins: Yeah, well I've been taking numerous vitamins that are just overall beneficial for health and development. But has anyone seen some of the new research on Vitamin C tablets, it is some scary stuff.

5. Super Supplements: The name escapes me, but along with the other health substances I'll be back on a workout supplement. Since experience has shown that creatine is a waste of time, I made sure to order a "dry" enhancer.

6. Speaking of Enhancers...: Yeah, now I'll be chatting about my male appendage. Not that I have anything to be ashamed about at a little over 7 inches, but I definitely like the idea of packing a ten or even an eleven incher. That sounds freaking awesome.

7. Exercise: Right, so I have my hot jogging partner back. A little inspiration goes a long way. Running will improve overall health as well as assist objective number two. Along with that I'll be going back to the gym, it's kind of scary how much gain I've lost. At the beginning of the school year I weighed 170lb and was benching 200lb and now I'm down to 150lb and only benching 165lb. But my abdominals are perfect now, I'll be careful not to lose that improvement ha-ha.

8. Diet: Only eating healthy food now, not too much more I need to add here. But I will be fasting once a week for improved health (I’ll be damned if some polygamous Mormon lives longer than me because of his or her misguided beliefs.)

9. Contacts: Don’t know why this is here, I just need to order more before I run out.

10. Manicure: I like manicures. Don't comment on this...just please.

11. Shave: Keeping it clean.

12. Hair: Just need a routine cut soon. I'll edit this out when it's not bothering me.


Mind (Plateau)

1. Calculus and Physics: These two classes are hurting my GPA. I'll be getting those suckers up a letter grade for the 5.0 marginal factors.

2. Meditate: Recent research shows that people who meditate are healthier, calmer, and more capable of making smart decisions.

3. Games: I've got to lay off Halo and try something that improves something other than motor skills.

4. SATs: I'm taking them a second time; I was so pissed when I was fifty points short of 2100.

5. Writing: I'd like to push for an 8.3 average.


Soul (Downhill)

1. Boyfriend: I've got to be a better boyfriend, enough said.

2. Job: Getting another job this week, I'd like to be a salesman, but who knows...

3. Get some Hobbies: I need some hobbies, I'd love some suggestions. I play the guitar and drums but I’m not really feeling like I love it.

I'll probably be updating on my progress as well as daily problems. But don't worry; I don't have any delusions about other people following this journal. Alright, so I think this pretty much lays it out, happy holidays, and good luck on all your similar or dissimilar resolutions!

:wave:
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Update #1


Body


1. Tan: I haven't quite gotten to this, I'll most likely go tan tomorrow while I’m out doing rudimentary errands.

2. Skin Care: Wow, my complexion has pretty drastically improved. Not quite perfect, but I'm confident that those pesky blemishes will be completely gone in a week or two; I can't even see them unless I'm a few inches from the mirror. Soon my skin will be healthier than ever and to think that damn Proactive isn't even coming until February! I doubt I'll need it by then...

3. Teeth: Today will be the first day I start the regime.

4. Vitamins: This has been going well, there are so many though, damn.

5. Super Supplements: I predict these will be coming in a week. Not looking forward to the effects they have on digestion though. I guess I'll be dropping a few noxious bombs in the bathroom when I start taking this powdery junk. Going to the gym today (and forsaking jogging, forgive me, I'm lazy!)

6. Enhance the Enhanced: Yup...first day as well.

7. Exercise: Gym today and every day after this (hopefully.)

8. Diet: Having a little trouble cutting how much I eat, but other than that, all is going well. My mom, however, is determined to go vegan so I guess I'll hop on that bandwagon. Unfortunately, it’s true that the hormones they put in meat are wildly unhealthy. But off course, I'll handle the essential amino acids appropriately. I'm attributing my improved complexion, for the most part, to diet!

9. Contacts: My moronic optometrist needs another check-up before I can order more. It's only been a few months, this is bull! My eyes aren't even that impaired; they're 1.5 for god's sake!

10. Manicure: I don't know when I'll be handling this. It's not really needed so I'm not worrying about it right now, hopefully it will be handled before the sixth.

11. Shave: I feel clean!

12. Haircut: Tomorrow before I get a tan I think. Long hair is such a buzz kill (Get it!?)


Mind


1. Problem Classes: It's break but I still have a lengthy review assignment and an colossal project due when I get back. I figure today's a good day to get started.

2. Meditate: I've been neglecting this, partaking in it for a mere five minutes per day. I'll devote more time for it today, after all, I have nothing but time...

3. Games: I’m proud of myself here, I’ve been sticking to exclusively mind-challenging games.

4. SATs Frankly, I think I'll be putting this off for now, I'll worry about my other objectives for the time being.

5. Writing: I’ll be going to pick up a review book tomorrow.


Soul

1. Boyfriend: Haven't made too many strides here, but she's happy. That will have to suffice for now.

2. Job: I'll pick up numerous applications tomorrow while doing some other minor chores.

3. Hobbies: Nothing. I was thinking photography? And Spiff, thanks for the input! I do play sports though but I don't really count those as hobbies. More like extracurricular (I know those are synonyms but there's a minute discrepancy...)

I hope you enjoy these oncoming fruity little colors...if you didn’t, well, you can just suck my balls then. They'll differentiate my weekly updates starting from here on out. Bear with me here!

I'm taking vitamins as well as eating healthy. That's probably the most important facotor (prevention) but for the existing blemishes I'm using some standard exfoliating wash and apply Aloe Vera juice to promote healing. It seems to be working amazingly well, so I'm rather optimistic about the entire situation.

Don't worry about the Vegan thing, I'll have a sufficient amount of proteins and I dont believe soy could be any worse than bull hormones. So protein and amino acids will be accounted for and there's a pretty limited amount of soy in my diet. It's mostly brands and vegetables with a bit of fruit and vegan meat.

That's a gel-based set, correct? What's the percentage strength? I'm kind of worried about using 34%, it seems rather powerful.

Update #2


Body

1. Tan: At my optimum tan right now, looking good. Now I just need to maintain it.

2. Skin Care: Complexion is great; I’ll be perfect (blemish-free) by Valentine’s Day (for my woman, naturally.)

3. Teeth: I haven’t been sticking to this daily, but they’re noticeably whiter, not quite perfect though.

4. Vitamins: Ran out of some, other than that I’m doing great.

5. Super Supplements: Superpump worked amazingly well, my gym buddy demanded to know what I was taking because I became so well defined and toned in no time.

6. “Enhance”: First month is almost complete. I’m eight inches (1 inch growth) as of yesterday, hoping for ten by the end of month three.

7. Exercise:
Been going every two days for long, strenuous workouts. The in-between days I run for an hour (about six miles.)

8. Diet: Vegan thing is going well, I’ve been indulging in organic beef jerky though. Um, I was beginning to lose control of how much I ate, but it’s back under control (I try to stick to 1500-1800 calories daily)

9. Manicure: I can’t bring myself to do this. I need more cash!

10. Speed:
I want to get faster, sprints are the answer. I actually just thought of this, so sprints will hopefully commence tomorrow.

11. Strength: Initially I just wanted the muscle for superficial appearance. Now that I have them, I genuinely want to get stronger. So yeah, I’m already stronger but I'll keep going.

Mind


1. Problem Classes: I’m actually buckling down and boycotting the television. I need to get my **** straight for college. If I pull a 4.3 this semester I’ll feel pretty confident.

2. Meditate: I completely stopped this, I’ll start again tonight!

3. Book: I just bought a book with some fun exercises that I’ll be using daily as well as one that discusses human interactions that will hopefully help analyzation.


4. Writing:
Picked up a review book. First writing block is this upcoming week.

5. Penmanship:
I actually tried tackling this at the end of last summer. I failed! But now is as good a time as ever to develop beautiful scrawl (my penmanship is boring print.)

6. Speaking:
I’d like to improve articulation. I speak well, but I want to speak brilliantly! :down:

Soul

1. Boyfriend: Doing well (I think.)

2. Job: Turned in applications a few days ago, waiter/retail positions.

3. Hobbies: I picked up an art book today as well. I think I’ll be drawing well by my next update. Also dusted off my bass and going to hop to that as well.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Oh, and I lost my virginity in-between updates. I have a question.

Well, you see, she became pretty, um, lively in the course of, err, intercourse; but, directly to the point, how do you give a girl an orgasm? I seriously went for hours and she secreted a lot of liquid and porno sounds but she asserted it wasn't quite an orgasm. So dubbya tee eff?
