It's been a rather interesting day today. Never actually got any work done out at the Wild Woods today. Main reason for that - we were busy with other things. Actually, I should say that Richard was busy with other things. I wasn't really busy with anything. Haha.
I got a call from Richard at about 10:10 saying he was going to be about another 30 minutes due to the youths being late for their ride to...where-ever they're currently going with the course they do on Wednesdays. I decided to walk around town for about 10 minutes before heading out to the Wild Woods. While there, I took a few pictures of the place, and then I basically just sat around for...I've no idea how long...until Richard showed up.
That's when I was talked to about the funding they're going to try to get for me. To put in the bid, they've got to list what I want to achieve from all of this, and what the final outcomes will be (hopefully). One goal is definitely something I need to have worked on, and that is my social skills. I think that anyone who I know locally (and even via the internet) knows that I am awful at social interaction. I can never do anything well when it comes to interacting with people in person.
It's odd because online, on chat programs, I can interact with people really well, but in person - I'm a failure. I just can't do it. It's something I know to improve for certain if I want to get anywhere, but I dunno...I'm not sure what stops me from interacting with people. Actually, I'm sure I can sum it up well. All it takes is one word - fear. I'm afraid I'm going to make a complete arse of myself; get laughed at; ridiculed. But, how do I get over that? Will I ever get over it? I guess we'll find out.
