Today has been a great day and I want to vent about it (Truly exciting)
Don't get me wrong, I was anxious about it and during it. However, the feeling I get when I've managed to hold my own in an extremely socially taxing situation.. is hard to beat.
I woke up at 7am to go to our uni's course's project's kick-off at Ericsson. The companies started by introducing themselves with very generic talks about their contributions to the environment, which was unsurprisingly lame as fuck. Afterwards we got to "mingle" as they call it; basically we just walked up to the company who hosts our project challenge and asked a bunch of questions concerning it. This was supposed to last for 2 hours after the 1 hour company introduction, however, after 1 hour we were feeling kind of finished.
We then proceeded to talk to our teachers to confirm our presence at the event for the obligatory attendance. Then we walked around a bit and looked at their lab equipment; which I in turn asked a very cute girl about what it was for.
We then proceeded to chit-chat a bit and decide on what we would want to achieve with out project, we got our free sandwich wraps, and then I left saying farewell to everyone in my group.
A couple of key observations:
1 - One person in our group is named by a girls name; she, however, does barely resemble a girl. First I thought that it was a transvestite, but then in a different light and when she smiled I thought "oh okay she's definitely a girl, I'm surprised". But then she stopped smiling and damn I have no idea anymore. On top of that she sounds like a man. 🙉
First thought I had when I saw her: She looks almost exactly like the girl from The Witcher (netflix series), BUT BEFORE THE TRANSFORMATION 😱. Either way I don't mind, if it's a girl I would totally be her friend if she's nice, if it's a dude then... yeah I feel sorry for him for taking that path.
2 - Despite the fact of me being extremely socially anxious, there were still a couple of people who were even more so than me. Maybe it's practice? Maybe... I've just learned that simply existing is enough and not expecting so much of yourself is a balanced mindset.
This months (past 30 days) have just been shock filled with blessings from God. I got home today, and I got the highest grade on a math course in mathematical modelling, like I don't even know what's happening anymore. 🤦♀️
Oh! And I almost forgot! I was about the only person in the class who did not write their last name to register at the event lmao. I just wrote martin because I thought they were only counting the attendance numbers for their sandwich and chair count. So I saved the paper of this badge because it was kinda funny entering the event, being the only person there without a last name.
