Went to a dumpling-making party last night hosted by old friends I haven’t seen in years despite living in the same city. I went alone even though I didn’t know anyone else there and it was so much fun!! I ended up staying until after midnight and I was the last person to leave the party. I was nervous at first but so glad I pushed through that feeling. Alcohol and the structured activity helped but I know I have the social skills to get through anything.

I recently went to a yoga society meeting at my university to meet the group and potentially make new friends. I was definitely more awkward than I usually am without my friends. I noticed more people came on their own, and before I knew it this guy struck up a conversation with me, said he recognised me from classes, shook my hand. Next thing I know we were flirting playfully! All it took was a few minutes out of my comfort zone, crazy!

It's one thing to not go to an event you definitely know you won't enjoy, that's respectable. But when you're on the fence and maybe it would be easier to just not go, you should just go. You will be glad you did. This is how we make memories, and stories, and build community. I realized today I haven't hugged anyone in a while but I hugged a coworker after a work hangout, I had been planning to ditch, and I'm feeling very fragile about it now, in a good way.

I don’t drink caffeine because I can’t handle it but I make an exception for Thai iced tea. Gonna lose my mind shortly after this but it was worth it.

I want this matching set from free people but I don’t want to pay $80 for cheap synthetic fabric. Hope I don’t fuck it up!
