OK, so I am not the most social thing. I tend to stay to myself and really don't feel the need to socialize with others and just hang with myself. It's not that I don't play well with others or it's not that I don't like to meet new and exciting people. It's just me and it's the way that I have always been.
Maybe it's due to the fact that I see a lot of people each and every day. I have so much interaction at work or school, whether it's with one of my patients or one of my faculty. Or it could be with one of my 80+ students..... Sensory overload? Naw, it's just me. I like to keep to myself and have always been this way. Gee, maybe I was socialized when I was a pup or child? Who knows.
Anyway, I signed up for meetup.com. Seems they have a photography group that meets each month and the meetings are right down the road from the house. I can't wait until April 8th when I get to attend my first meeting. How exciting! OK, maybe not, but the topic should be good. I am not sure how I will take a picture of someone at the meeting..... excuse me, but this may sound odd, but I want to get a picture of you..... Gee, Ii wonder if they revoke memberships on the first meeting?

A cousin has been to several 'meet up' events with a group close to where she lives in Raleigh.
ReplyDeleteBeing social is also one of my challenges. I think I was born to be a wallflower. Over the years, I've had to force myself to engage others. I'm better than I used to be but this is going to be interesting.

ReplyDeleteHome birthing group? Oh, I am so there!
