		<description>Hi Lauren, it was a pleasure meeting you. I actually noticed that you did seem a bit freaked out. You smiled, but seemed to be thinking of something else. You were distracted. You face seemed to say &quot;What am I doing here?&quot; Reading your post, I now understand why. 

When Janette (Toral) told me, &quot;She&#039;s Laurganism.com.&quot;  I first thought &quot;Who?&quot; How utterly ignorant of me. It was later on that I realized. &quot;Oh Yeah, first known Pinay blogger.&quot;

Just get to know some friends. Be comfortable with them and when another Blog get-together comes along, you can be in a little &#039;safe zone&#039; with them.  Contrary to what you say, you really don&#039;t have to sell your soul to the demons of the corporate world. You could always start your own business. Heck, you could make and sell beads and art!</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never liked being around strangers, though my mom claims that when I was a little kid I would always be the first to volunteer for party games.  I suppose that&#039;s where I must have spent all my party energy. :P  These days even hanging out with my friends gets exhausting.  Or maybe it&#039;s just because school is being a total slavedriver right now.</description>

		<description>I was there and I saw you, but I had no chance to introduce myself properly to you. :D

Same sentiments here, actually. It was really surprising to see lots of people there. I almost backed out. Blame it on my introverted nature.</description>

		<description>i forget which clicks lead me here, but thought I&#039;d have to feel you on your comments regarding socializing with strangers...as i&#039;ve gotten older there is less of a need to be around strangers than i used to have, and i thought it was because i was getting older, but i realize that there&#039;s a different energy to having to work the room that&#039;s required and that drains the life out of me.

oh and don&#039;t sell out. while it might be easy and tempting there are plenty of ways to keep it real, darling. i promise. kisses from san francisco :-)</description>
