shy

[st_anger5532]

who here is shy. cause i know that from 2 car meets iv gone too that there is always like 2 or 3 people (usual small meets) that just kind of stand by there car say hi and thats it. i dont want that to happen in june at the "Hyundai in the Hills" meet. im a bit shy so yea i might end up being one of thos people but yea i just want to know who you people are so i can hunt you down and make you talk to people and stuff like that. maybe if your so chy that you ignore people you dotn kow ill take your car LOL no i wont do that but yea. oo and i was thinking maybe us EXD people could like park in one area or meet up in one area so we could meet each other and not have to hunt.

if you cant tell im bored out of my mind lol.

I'm pretty shy around new people. The key is to make conversation with people, and try to make friends, so you dont feel so awkward.

[slow 2K2GT]

I am one of the least shy people ever the army kind of does that to a person. I can see being a little shy at first but by the end of the first afternoon, with all the time we spend here on this site, we should pretty much know everything about each other.

when im meetin people to bull**** with them and stuff (ie, car meets, drinking) im fine. when im tryin to meet a girl, i get really shy. its wierd.

Yeah, I know what you mean there. It may be awkward for many people (myself included) suddenly meeting a whole bunch of people we both know and don't know...and trying to figure out who's who in person vs. online...

Nametags?

[evan938]

yeah, we've had nametags @ the past meets. im sure we'll have some @ HITH

[ilanpro]

I am Pretty Shy, Until the drinking starts. lol

[evan938]

"thats whats up!"

[ilanpro]

^^ Good Times, I am still waiting for the strippers to arrive. lol

[evan938]

hahahahaha. yeah...well...technically, we had one @ the party. but not working. we gotta get somethin like that together again. im waitin to hear from sean to see whats going on for new years...he said somethin about coming to columbus, and i let him know if not, maybe we could have a "get together" out in pgh again. we shall see. i dont think he'll be back until the 30th

[ilanpro]

Spring time will be best, I hope We can get some girls out there

[evan938]

yeah. we need to set up a "pre HITH" meet in/near PGH. seems like the best spot

[SuperGLS]

As for being shy at Hyundai meets, just remember, all the people there are just big Hyundai dorks just like you.

Doesn't hurt if you have a hot girlfriend or can cook chicken really good...

bwahahaha

[bikerPA]

yeah, a puppy in the front seat helps too, everyone gets psyched and doesn't notice that your car is loaded full of crap and has huge dents in the roof...

ain't no reason to be shy IRL, we've all seen each other act the fool on the boards, it's all good. :D

[korai9989]

just let loose. the whole event is for the fun, not the commercial aspects. so yeah, let loose.

[st_anger5532]

ill probobly end up being one of the popel who shows up and just kind of sits/stands there. for about an hour or 2 befor i start walking about and calling people by there EXD screen names

LOL is that supposed to be directed at me?

[korai9989]

haha... i'll probably be calling people by their screennames too, but i won't know who most people are...

like, "heeeyyyy, st_anger5532, what's up man?" lmao

[ArunSenior04]

Its easier to conversate by s/n than by real name. Everyone kept calling me arun (eron), but its pronounced Arun (A as in lay, and run as in run.)

[evan938]

no you wont, because you will realize a lot of peoples s/ns are either hard to pronounce, or should be said different then how you think. see...like...keyan. i thought it should be said "kee-uhn" then i heard someone say "kay-ehn" and "cayenne"...it was a big mess of mispronunciations, and "james" was easier to say.

and yes reece, im sure the chicken comment was for you, and you better be cooking it @ HITH

[Cypher]

nah i personally hate calling people by their s/n... i know i don't like being called mine because i have a real name. :P i can be kinda shy but it helped in PGH to have steve with me since hes one of my real good friends. you just gotta jump it and start conversating. we're all there to have fun. besides if anything i'm sure everyone will loosen up once the partying starts!

[ArunSenior04]

Wont there be vendors out there to cook?

If we are planning to grill, I dont mind bringing some seasoned chicken. I just wont be bringing a grill.

Nametags?


Mikey7046 created an online thing to print out name tags.

http://hyundaimeet.com/nametags I mean, you'll have to print it out yourself before you come, unless someone wants to bring a printer and labels, I'll bring my laptop and help print 'em out, or we can use JumpMan's carputer ;)

We will also need to print out placards for each car saying who's it is and maybe a list of mods or something so people know specifically what to check out on that car.

Nah dont bother with that, not for the first day anyhow, lets see just how well the members of the forum know each others cars. There is also the members picture thread, perhaps some research should be done there.

Thats going to be quite a lot of people to try to identfiy by pictures alone.

And sometimes just remembering one persons name in an event is hard...

[st_anger5532]

ill bring my printer and a bunch of paper if you guys want

[skeetre]

we'll need sticker labels, or clear plastic holders with clips or something.

[evan938]

just caus i know its coming, this is goin way off topic. theres a thread dedicated to the HITH meet already together. probably be best to post stuff like that in that thread and not in one labeled "shy"

[st_anger5532]

yea probobly im gunna start this up over there then.
