...and looking at websites about your local area run by local newspapers to see if you could put a link up to your (run for work) Teen Reading Group is probably a bit sad to say the least. I have resisted the urge to actually send in a link but not quite managed to resist trying to find out how. Tsk.
Anyhow in some ways it's good that I'm fired up and ready to roll with more stuff. I got plans people. And big dreams. You know beautiful interactive website that is teen friendly... lotsa people at my group. Two sweet and QUIET girls came to my reading group. Two was enough not to be embarrassing, but still a leetle small. Really need 4 for the games to work properly.
Anyhoo. Have done some rotaracty stuff tonight - sold 10 tix to my rotarct club's Beetle Drive...sorry I didn't the czech guy did, to his line dancing group!! They seem really fond of him which is sweet. He is a sweet guy. I'd almost fancy him myself if he didn't definitely seem to avoid giving signs of being interested. That and I'm not really into people who aren't fluent English. I'm crap enough with guys without having a language barrier.
Seem to be spending a slightly embarrassing amount of time on yahoo personals. Not that I've contacted any more people. I almost was brave enough to do the whole IM thing just now but chickened out. Besides which I can't really do that on here. I'm on the desk top which means no trillian and therefore no Yahoo Instant messenger. Still why I'm even contemplating some guy who is half irish half french and generally out of my league is beyond me. Some guy smiled at me on the train today. I only managed to smile to myself, not look back at him.
Perhaps I should add into my profile on Yahoo
"I'm really quite pathetic once you get to know me, no really I'm no good a looking cute men in the eye"
Mind you even this reaction is an improvement for me.
My boss was really sweet in a quick mini 1to1 we had today and was really positive about what I've achieved so far bless her. That's what I love about the boss she's really positive and supportive.
Slightly puzzled by thenewred pulling out of the Beetle Drive cos of low nos. We're now over 30 confirmed that's pretty cool when more will turn up on the night. It's just with rotaract you don't argue your corner in meetings when you don't agree then pull out after a meeting you say your piece in a meeting and if you're not happy you pull out then or else you just muck in. And you don't chicken out if you think you'll get a minimum no of people and the others have agreed to go ahead. But I guess it's different if you've a family to run and stuff. 's just me and PM had sorta hoped she would be our stalwart who would take on odd jobs and not back out and maybe you know just maybe be more active in club soon. She may well do. But dear god everyone else is totally useless atm.
In case anyone is wondering what I put in my profile...and have failed to find it from my nickname...
Cheery & chatty seeks intelligent convos
I am quite a shy person with new people, but once you get to know me I'm quite loud, silly and chatty. I love talking about music, films and books. My friends say I'm intelligent (I don't always agree with that), sympathetic and friendly... and forgetful (birthdays mostly).
I like indie and rock like Bluetones, White Stripes and Ani DiFranco. I love to read, mainly SF and Fantasy but other things from time to time. Best book ever has to be Babel 17 by Delauney. Favourite film - Grosse Pointe Blanke.
I'm looking for someone to spend time with, whether out and about or at home. Someone with a quirky sense of humour and who I can talk to seriously sometimes. Someone who will go to the cinema with me. Fit the bill? Why not say hello?
Well with that I will leave off wibbling about men failing to answer my emails on Yahoo Personals and go to bed.
