Helly is brave
Tuesday, Oct. 05, 2004 - 17:09

Yesterday someone invited me to the pub that evening. A large group would be going. I don't know the guy who asked me that well - he gets the same bus as me in the mornings, and we've spoken because Jayne is on his team.
In the evening, I debated on whether to go. I didn't really want to drink a lot, and barely knew the guy who'd asked me and wasn't sure I'd know any of his friends. Shyness attacks. I'd probably end up in a corner somewhere with no one talk to me.
I managed to pull just about every excuse on myself for not going - I don't know anyone, I was a bit late anyway, I didn't quite know where the pub was, he probably didn't really expect me to come... I even tried praying in the hope that God would somehow either advise me that if I went I'd be in mortal danger or gave me a sudden burst of confidence that would kill my shyness.
The thing was, in the end I knew that if I didn't go, not only would he probably not extend another invitation, but I would also be kicking myself for days.
I pulled my shoes on.
Yup, I had a lovely time, and I drank coke :)
