Always say yes to unexpected invitations

After Africa, this seems like the thing I have to do. Saying no only makes one miss out on things. Silke said today: Give it a chance. That’s how it is. Better to try something new than always do the same and get no inputs. It’s so hard, but maybe, maybe I can do it.
Showing initiative is a value. DO SOMETHING NEW. See new possibilities.

Still having trouble with that one girl.
Otherwise almost all invitations are accepted – it’s almost too easy now that school is over and I have no homework or assignments, just work.
I feel like I see more people than ever before … people are the only thing that matters.

A very productive goal, though I don’t always keep it in mind.
This Saturday, I accepted crashing my ex’s apartment with two of his friends whom I had only really talked to that very night. So easy to just do it.. a very nice experience.

Last week, I went Christmas shopping with a girl I’ve been admiring from afar. For three hours we talked and talked. Until then we’d only had talks in the bus – granted, those trips lasted half an hour each – and a few minutes at school, but this was so spontaneous, and yet I felt completely safe. I took time off for her – usually I’d have worried about school assignments.. She’s special.

I can think of one invitation I didn’t accept during the last few months – one to meet with an old school friend of mine. I guess I should have – but once I’m with her I’m always trying to find a way to worm out..
