I want to go to my university’s society events to meet people and socialise rather than get the event over with. I’d like to leave with a memory, experience and an acquaintance or perhaps a friend.
I want to be present in my social interactions with people.
Speak up even if I had previously decided against it 🙂
Yes Cat – that’s what I need to push myself to do too!
I wanna stop feeling intimidated by eye contact (especially from girls I find attractive) and not get too anxious that I become unable to find a solution when someone starts acting indifferently to my attempts at having a healthy and interesting conversation.
I want to wipe out that ‘Iwanttodie Iwanttodie Iwanttodie’ Mantra off my head when an awkward silence comes in and I want to make more friends. I swear I will at least try to hold eye contact more than normally I would (even though I already know I will start looking at something else just after 2 secs)
I want to make interesting conversations and be relaxed when talking to people.
me too Tony, sounds like a reachable goal
I want to make interesting conversations and know what to say to people when I meet them
I want to be able to approach people instead of holding back and being self conscious
My goal is to have a conversation with cashiers or workers that I come into contact with on a daily basis. Usually, there’s an awkward silence, so trying to have some small talk feels like a doable step.

Work on my thesis
These articles and emails are interesting to read but sometimes I feel that my situation is not as bad as I thought or maybe it became better. I usually don’t step forward and talk but when someone comes to talk to me, I don’t get nervous either.
I shall have my webcam/video on at least for some time while attending my online workshops/webinars.
