Went to the Jeremy Scott x adidas party last night. I’d like to quickly point out (then avert your eyes elsewhere) the fact that I have NEVER been to Coachella. Yet, as of last night, I’ve been to one of the after-parties. This is so backwards. I should be ashamed.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that I met some really cool people last night. People who were all so different from each other. People who were excited to get out and let go. It was nice to just be surrounded by complete strangers for the night. Sometimes, I think it’s good to do something out of your typical routine. I don’t usually leave the house at 10pm to drive 2 hours and stay out til 4am. Maybe I just like my bed too much? What I’m trying to say is… there are a million-bajillion people on this planet (that’s just an estimation) and we’ll never ALL know each other well. Most of us won’t meet at all. But when we step outside our inner circle and start leaving footprints in other places we have a lot more chances to make impact, to learn something brand new, to find out who we really are by seeing a part of us in a total stranger.
Don’t judge. Don’t stay inside all the time. Get out and let somebody know who you are.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. If I’m not at school, at work, or it’s a holiday, you’ll likely find me sitting on my couch working or wasting time online. I’ve been at my University for 4 years now, and I’ve made approximately 1 real friend (not counting my roommate Mitch, because I knew him before this) and 5-6 acquaintances.
I feel like something has to be wrong with me, because I’ve never heard of such nonsense from anyone remotely like myself. I’m always afraid of saying something that could offend someone, or that they’ll think I’m just too weird. This is the usual case.
Maybe before/during the summer I can take Hayley’s advice and start getting out of the apartment more often. That’d be really nice. :)
