takeachance2day “Talk does not boil rice.”chinese proverb

It's harder than I thought it would be 2 weeks ago

As making friends- yes FRIENDS and not just aquaintances is hard. Noone out there wants to just chill out at your place- its not like that anymore. Everyone is so awkward. I guess I am too, so this doesn’t help. I don’t really fit in anywhere – or haven’t found my “niche” as they call it. Is this good or bad or what? I don’t know anymore. I wonder if I should stop being on the lookout for potential friends and just be. JUST. BE.

going to a potluck/birthday party with/for some folks from the local dog park on saturday. I already know all the dog names, just need to learn the people’s names. And we already have something in common so that’s a step in the right direction.

This is one goal I absolutely suck at. I might delete this from my list. I don’t know yet.

the best laid plans... 13 months ago

Well, I didn’t have a chance to talk to my yoga teacher about ballet. She always had a cloud of people around her. She’s like that – she’s very sympathetic, but not wishy washy, very easy to talk to. So I didn’t get to ask her if she knows anyone who likes ballet. Then my volunteer session was canceled due to the weather. So I guess this is how it goes sometimes.

some stuff 13 months ago

Tomorrow at yoga I’m going to ask the instructor if she knows any women who like ballet. Swan Lake is in town, and I’d love to go. (The man will do almost anything for me, but attending a ballet is NOT on the list) My yoga instructor is very well liked, and knows like a ton of people, so I may be able to have company for the ballet. Also, I’m volunteering again this weekend at my favorite nature preserve. So at least I’ll be practicing my “talking to strangers” skills which have started lacking again.

Hope springs eternal.

Last time I wrote on here I seemed a bit upset about the friend situation, and since then I have made friends with two really great chics! And whats more, I realised my friends in Sydney are still there, even if I cant see them. I have also spent more time with my partner and kids, so I feel alot less lonely. Although I still wish I had more opportunities to socialise, as rural living can really take its toll on you!

so I went 14 months ago

So I went to the personality thing today, and it was definitely interesting. I’m definitely out of my element here. I was the only one wearing jeans for starters. Also, although I like an occasional glass of wine, I’m not a wine drinker. There was much wine – white chilled of course, red – properly breathing & at room temp. (I actually like red, but I’m such a philistine I’ll only drink it chilled!) Also, I’m the only one who actually COOKED food (other than the hostess) There were 2 commercially packed veggie trays, some tortilla chips with store made quac, some POTATO CHIPS with dip! Not that I’m a snob, & I love those things, but if I’m invited somewhere & asked to bring an appetizer, I always assumed I’m supposed to make it!

The personality stuff was actually interesting, but I don’t know if I want to go further into it. The theory is if you know your personality type & the personality types of those around you, you can have better, easier, more communication on all levels. My fear is that if I decide you are type 2 / social – then I’ve painted you into a box, and what if I’m wrong? Meanwhile, you’re deciding I’m a type 4 / transmitting & your wrong. Where does it go from there?

It was interesting, and I’m glad I went.

Well, I’m doing the personality test thing. It’s tomorrow night @ 6. I’ll let you know how it goes. Oh, and I’m going to make my veggie pizza as my appetizers (crescent rolls, cream cheese, ranch mix, veggies) It seems to be a big hit wherever I take it, so at least I’ll feel like I contributed something good!
