I would say hello, but I am an introvert.

I made a resolution to be more outgoing. Which is almost physically painful for me. I don't really consider myself shy, just indifferent. Regardless, lately I feel like it has been holding me back. So that is why I am stepping it up.

How is it going?

1.) I talked to a couple of girls in my painting class... and by talk I mean I just made a couple snide comments about the class. 

2.) I started up a conversation with a fella in my Photo class, and he turned out to be really cool. 

3.) I also sat RIGHT NEXT to somebody in my Natural Disasters class, and he striked up a conversation so I guess that one was a joint effort.  

These are my ginormous strides. 

but I guess I need to consider the step I took backwards when I ignored that one annoying kid who wouldn't stop sharing his every thought with me. They aren't all gems buddy, you shoulda quit while you were ahead. 

& that is why I am an introvert. 

Walk away, or try harder?

"One of the hardest parts of life is deciding whether to walk away, or try harder?"

Brain says walk away. Heart says try harder.

Is it always like that?

I want things with him to work out so badly I can feel it all slipping out of my control. Fight or flight? I guess it is just a matter of determining what I am willing to risk. 

Should I dive head first into dark waters?

Brain says walk away. Heart says... go for it.
