I attended my first Young Vancouver Social meetup today. I had to force myself. I’ve been so introverted the past few months. Dunno why.
I event went wearing hair. I just didn’t feel comfortable meeting these people for the first time without hair. Dunno why. Maybe Afiya’s low self esteem rubbed off on me? I’ll never hang out with her ever again.
I’ve been wanting to play volleyball. It’s now half way through July and I finally forced myself to go today. I need to do things without overthinking more often.
The people we met are actually not bad. Fairly nice and likeable. Lots of engineers.
Janet (Singapore; Accensure), Rita, Tahseem, Rex Huang (China), Matt (mechanical engineer sales guy; American), Marko (cotton candy guy; HK?), Eddy (wants to wind surf; from Toronto?), Clair (from Calgary, HR), Ger (Asian with cool sunglasses and yellow shirt, HR), Alex (reminds me of Fitz from Shield…limp handshake), Allie (darker girl. Not very social), Stephanie (black and white skirted bikini), Charlie (Asian engineer, facial hair, also does photography, about to get married. Sherry is her name. Not very nice, big boobed), Adam (an intern from Toronto. Thought he was a good person, but he seemed to try to avoid me, which was weird and insulting. He went straight to talk to all the other girls, and Alex, and they left without inviting him to join them). Then there’s Chris, who wasn’t bad looking, a bit old, and never joined us in play.
I wouldn’t mind going again, but would like to go later in the day. Less sun and fewer people. The sand was soooo hot today I burnt my feet. Everyone was in pain. My nose is burnt too.
On the way home, I walked down Robson to get a smoothie. I was unexpectedly trapped by an Italian sales person who wanted to sell me some diamond exfoliation cream.
I ended up spending $674CAD on 5 bottles. They are supposed to help moisturize and lift my face, and will last 1 year or 2.
I hope I was destined to be lead there, and destined to see results. Last time I spend so much in one go ($500+ at MAC) was over 10 years ago.
I hope it’s ok that I splurge, once in a while. I’m making some money now. I should be making more soon, when the women’s rings are ready. I hope it’ll double my sales, so I make $20K profit per month. That would be so amazing!!! $240K profit, minus taxes, is about $168K!
