Over the past month and a half I have REALLY tried to put myself out there for socialization. Normally in situations where socializing goes wrong for me, I run back to Jesse and pretty much say I never want to try that again. So I have been putting myself out there, trying to socialize, make friends and get some interaction since moving to Red Deer.
Over the course of last month I went to a bachlorette party, a thirty one party, and a work potluck in attempt to making some friends.
The bachlorette party was for on of the RN's at work Corey, she is part of the kitty fund at work so they threw her a bachlorette party. Lots of RN's went, no processors went and a unit clerk went. It was fun, we went to Heritage Ranch for the party and I had never eaten there before. I had chicken tacos and had this very yummy beet and watermelon salad. It was nice to have conversations with the other ladies at work and get to know them better. It was like a normal bachlorette party, where we talked about her wedding, she opened some presents, etc. It all in all was just very fun.
The other attempt at socializing was going to a thirty one party. Thirty one is a company that produces bags, such as utility totes, purses, wallets, and some jewellery. It was fun also, they had a raffle, we had to introduce each other and such. I bought some stuff there as well, a wallet, a cross body and a wrist strap to go along with the wallet. I met a girl there as well, her name is Karly and she had just moved to Red Deer as well. She is a dental hygienist and was looking for friends as well. Later on I went to go for pedicures with her and did a bit of shopping as well so that was a bonus.
