"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I know there are a few "reflection" posts here because summer's just about gone (one more day till school for me). I'd still like to add my own reflection because I think it's a good way on gathering your thoughts and focusing...

Summer's been really fun. I've gone places, had fun w/ my family and friends, and experienced things that really made this vacation worthwhile. That's why it's sad to leave summer behind and go back to school. It's not that school is bad, it's just that summer is a lot less stressful (I think it's true for everyone). But along with that stress, school comes with a lot of different things. Good things...I don't know exactly what I'm going to experience this school year but I know it's going to be different than any other school year I've had. EVERY year is different because you're always learning new things (not just academic things too). I really DON'T NEED a girlfriend. Girls aren't something that I stress/think about nearly as often as I used to and that's good. I have a feeling, though, that this year...this one girl...she likes me...I like her...unless she suddenly turned into a h0 over the summer, somethings going to happen. I'm not going to assume that we're going to have a relationship, but it's fun to think about what might happen this year. I'm going to face her sooner or later, I'm gonna ask her out sooner or later, and I'm going to get a true answer sooner or later (instead of speculating like I did last year). I've never had a girlfriend so I AM a little curious and anxious to try it out but not so anxious that I'm going to change my sh*t up. Not for a girl. I have more pride in myself now. This is just one of the things that I have to look forward to (whether good or bad, it'll be an experience fo sho;) ). Last year, I learned alot about myself, and I improved myself alot by becoming more social, more fashionable, more athletic, etc. This year, I'm continuing that process but I'm much farther ahead in the game so it'll be cool to see how things go. I think I'm more optimistic about things than I used to be so I won't get in "depressed moods" as much (maybe not ever but that seems almost impossible for anyone).

Anyway...summers been really fun...I wish it could be summer vacation forever but fact is, that ain't gonna happen so I'm going back to school with a refreshed mind, body, and soul (sounds corny, I know). School is all about opportunities: the opportunity to get good grades, the opportunity to make something of yourself, the opportunity to make friends, the opportunity to meet/get girls...but they're all opportunities that are easy to pass up. I'm going to try to make the most out of things everyday. One day at a time, but with regard to my future. I want to spend time with the girl I was talking about...but I also don't want to "put the pu$$y up on a pedastool". Things are looking good.....except for all the damn homework;)
 

"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.
