you know, once i get going, i actually can hold a conversation fairly well, it getting started that is killing me!
I usually think of myself as a pretty social person, but since i’ve moved to a new area, it seems like i have to start all over, almost like i’ve forgotten how to socialize!
The other thing is, sometimes I don’t know how to end a conversation. sometimes, if i’m uncomfortable with the person or the conversation, i’ll literally just go “yeah… yeah…” and start walking away or completely ignoring them. I’ve got to stop doing that! but that’s if i’m uncomfortable. If i like the person, sometimes i’ll stumble over my sentences or become really awkward when I’m trying to close a conversation or ask for a phone number.
anyway, the first step is always the toughest, so i’ll just have to get over it!

How I did it
How I did it: i think i was so fed up with ie that anything i used as an alternative would seem better. luckily, i chose one of the best right off the bat. I used firefox for like 20 minutes and i was a believer. firefox is much faster and safer, plus its not part of bill gates' propaganda. down with ie, up with firefox! Read how I did it…

I’m just a 21 year old guy who’s got a lot of ideas for shirts. Not those cheesy I’m with stupid shirts or stuff you have to read, think about, then awkwardly laugh at, i mean simple, awesome drawings and artwork.
I’m going to see what kind of services I can find online and on average how expensive it would be to design my own line of t-shirts.
