About two days ago, I had written about how my friends and I had gone to this bar with plans to stay there for some few minutes but ended up staying for hours and attending a party that we didn't even know who the celebrant was. Well my time there did teach me a valuable lesson, one that if I become a master of, would see my social life skyrocket positively.
Countless times I have spoken about how I've always wanted friends that were somewhat wild and would help take me to places that I do want to go to but I'm too shy to go to. Places like parties and other social events. I wanted friends that would make me talk to people and socialize at those events even though all I want to do is sit at a corner and be invisible. Well, I got to find out that I've got all of that in me and that I don't need anyone to help do any of that.
Before I go any further, I would like to put it out there that this isn't me endorsing alcohol or anything like that. I understand how harmful it can be to human health and that most religions are against the consumption of alcohol. I'm only using it as a way to pass a much more important message, please bear with me.
Now before myself and my friends had gone to that party, we had spent a good amount of time downing some alcohol. We also were watching the AFCON match between Egypt and Congo so all plans to leave early flew out the window and we just kept on ordering more drinks. I'm not a huge fan of alcohol but by the time we were done, I was well intoxicated and when this other friend of ours insisted on us going to the party, I realize I had this confidence that I haven't felt in a long time.
To cut the story short, I ended up becoming the life of the party and I think it's safe to say that everyone knew who I was that night before I left. A lot of people came to meet me to tell me how cool I was and how much they enjoyed my vibe. At the time, I didn't think much of it because I still was drunk but now that I do think about it, it's crazy to me because if you know me, then you would know that I'm the guy who tries not to embarrass myself by getting on the dancefloor but on that night, I did way more than that.
The whole experience that night taught me that I've always been that wild friend that I've always wanted, I've just been too shy to bring out that side of me. And although I have no plans of taking alcohol everytime I want to feel that way, I just have to look for a natural way to be able to boost my confidence whenever I want to..kinda like making myself feel intoxicated without having to consume any substance whatsoever...
The moment I learn to do that, I would become the life of every party.
