How To Leave Your Comfort Zone

Dear Upa,

                Yesterday I attended a party. I'm a disaster in any social situation as it is, and I remember watching a K-Drama 20 minutes before I had to be ready and thinking about how much I didn't want to go, and instead just sit in the comfort of living vicariously through the high school dramas of a fictional character on the other side of the world. I had resigned myself to sitting near the food and eating and avoiding conversation because that is honestly my idea of a great time.

But I decided to just get up and go, because my life had literally come to a point where and my parents were forcing me to go for a party, so I figured I've hit a new low. 

But it was so much fun. The songs were great, the people were quite nice, the food was good, the place was super fancy and I can't remember the last time I danced this much and could ignore the fact that I almost passed out from the pain my heels were causing me. I don't know how all of those people stayed in heels for that long man. I am never trusting those shoes again. 

I realised that it didn't matter that I didn't know everyone like I did in our previous school, just the friends I did have were enough. I guess I could actually not hate it every time I'm forced out of my comfort zone, but the thing is with you I don't have to. I don't know anyone else I would be this comfortable living with. I know what you mean, because I am mostly myself when I am around you too. 

Parties are great I guess, but in all honesty, give me binge watching BTS videos and crying over fictional characters any day of the week. 

Bye for now,

Aditi.
