Today I did a sort of social experiment to get me better at communication. Basically, it just means starting awkward conversations and facing your fear when approaching strangers. It means that I have to open conversations anytime I have the smallest urge to do so. If I see a cute girl in the mall I have to actually go up and start talking to them even if they're in a big group or have a boyfriend with them or whatever. It's about not holding back, saying and doing what you want to when you want to. Opening new people sucks, it does. But once you do open, it's exhilariting. It lets you realize how stupid you've been, to ever think that there was something to fear about opening. It's all a big joke. If you get rejected it's a joke. Laugh it off and on to the next one. I'm not a shy person, but all of us have our downfalls. Facing social fear is extremely important and it will help me when I look for a publisher for my book and will also help me during any auditions I get. No doubt it will help me in relentless self-promotion once I have my own products to promote.
It was Canada Day so I went to a party, played horseshoes, ate a lot of food, drank a lot of beer, and had a good time. Sometimes you just have to have a good time and put some other things on hold.
Today I will be recording raps most likely. See ya soon internets
