I consider myself an introvert, but am slowly integrating myself into a more sociable person. I've practiced body posture and micro expressions. And although I'm still learning the aforementioned things, I've moved up to conversation techniques such as starting, sustaining, and ending one.

So for now I want to know the longest you've sustained a conversation between a stranger. I will use this information to improve myself, almost like short term goals when I'm out in public.

30 seconds to 2 minutes is probably my best score. I say hi or compliment them, then whether not they say something I sink the conversation into awkwardness.

Let me clarify, I only know how to play piano and guitar. Meaning I can play chords, tabs, and such. I just don't have any theory on my belt since I didn't take any music classes during my highschool years. I just graduated. Since I consider myself as self-taught, I'd like someone to show me where to go now.

The type of music doesn't matter to me, I like dubstep, classical, and many flavors of music. It inspires me how much work goes into music, I'd appreciate it more if I could make my own.

I've tried many times before prior to knowing how to play any instrument at all (free-styling & air-guitaring) and although I liked it, my peers said otherwise if not at all. Please help me! Thanks!

Although I still try, I haven't worked for a fast food company yet. The thing that drives my curiosity is when I ask my friends how their experiences were, they give me some vague bologna followed by a "Don't ever work for a fast food place". What's so bad about working as an employee at a fast food restaurant, is it the pay, work, etc? Someone please give me the " car fax". Thanks in advance.

Have you ever had a situation in which you had a big crush on a person, and then met their look-a-like?

Well it all started when I "fell in love" with this girl in my school and I tried my "best" to let her know that I liked her. Which involved sending her random letters even though she might of been oblivious to my existence, since I only spoke to her twice in person. But I usually saw her around the school halls. The only question I had was if she really liked me back and after many days of procrastinating(delaying), which took 2 years, I finally got the nerve to ask her out. It seemed legitimate that she would say yes, because we would look at each others eyes with such "intensity", which seemed like true love to me. But I guess my timing was wrong because she said no and she was getting ready for college at that time. By the time I asked it's summer break and school just ended. Next thing you know I'm scheduled to move to a new city, which means a new school. At this point I could careless because my crush would in college. But then when I start my new school there's this girl who almost lost like my crush....just almost and I'm stuck thinking if this is my chance to start again or stay true to myself and keep my hope.
