I’m going to a fitness class tonight that specifically involves disco lights, glow sticks, and loud music. Honestly quite anxious, but I’ve got to become less scared somehow!!!!!!!

i'm not a particularly experienced or strong dancer, but i go because i have fun and it's the only way i can get myself to exercise
so many people in these classes are so afraid of being perceived to the point where they're clearly not enjoying themselves anymore - as a social anxiety girlie i get it, it took me a while to beat this into my brain but you're in a class to learn!!! so what if someone is better than you. will you die? it's probably incredibly likely that someone will be much better. but they're not looking at you, they couldn't care less, embrace failure because it's fun and stupid and you're thinking about yourself too much. you're paying money to shiver in the corner? pop ur booty. goddamn it

I've gone to a few shows solo and find dancing to be the best way to shake out the nerves. Tune into the music and enjoy it. That's what you're there for. In yoga they say to stay with the breath through challenging poses and moves. Same goes here. Stay with the breath and the music. It's your experience.
-- Engage. Complimenting people is a good way to start a conversation. Where did you get those incredible boots, love your shirt it reminds me of ___, etc. If you have a question, any question, ask the people around you. Don't look it up on your phone or ask an employee. Have you tried this drink/snack on the menu? Do you know what time this DJ goes on? Have you seen this DJ before?
-- Comfort and confidence attracts. I have the tendency to overthink how I'm being percieved and the answer to that is just to do your damn thing and realize everyone else is in their own head with their own thoughts. You can't control what they think and *no one is thinking about you the way you are thinking about you.* You ever see somebody just doing their own thing and not worrying about anyone else? It's the hottest shit ever. People are going to gravitate toward you.
-- Hit da bricks! You have the freedom to leave if you're not having a good time. You can skedaddle whenever you want to. But I would say challenge yourself to push past the uncomfortable part at least once during the night, because that's where you learn the most about yourself.
Also second having a sparkling water or other NA beverage in hand. Something to do with your hands helps.
Your party sounds so fun, have a good time!

I will always, ALWAYS recommend a charity shop above all other methods of shopping. I was in one today for about an hour, only a small one too. Still, every time I went to pay for my things I found something even more interesting, like this pencil case. I think it’s pretty cool. I really like Miffy.

This morning, just before he left my house, my boyfriend put my sweets into this little dish. He also made the bed. I’m so grateful for little acts of love like these - I love him so much.

…preferably 9am. It’s all in the knowledge that you have a day of choice. Choosing what you want to do in the day is fun in itself, especially because there’s always the option of going back to bed for a bit. Also (a slightly less relevant addition), it’s a lovely time music-wise on Animal Crossing: New Leaf 😎
