My journal: a month of IS and Mystery Boy at school, 16 and in the UK

What an interesting week it’s been. An hour before lunch on monday I applied two sprays of IS and damn, my confidence in this stuff has shot through the roof. Even one of my teachers gave me a v. interesting look. If she was a student i’d’ve taken that as a hit. Oh yeah, that reminds me, I got a total hit from some girl I was walking past. When someone looks at you once all over, you don’t necessarily think much of it. But damn, she would not stop checking me out! :DThis was IS too, I think the same dose, but the week previous. Unfortunately there aren’t always things to notice, but overall there are noticable things, such as how some of my teachers will keep on talking to me, about me, or make a half joke at my expense - I think perhaps the best way to describe it is that I have a circle of content and comfort about me. I can be silent for most of a lesson and this one teacher will treat me as if I had been shouting out, joking around or just been bubbly and stuff.
Oh yeah, back to monday. Well, it was good. It really is as if I am constantly interacting with people on IS and perhaps MB, even if I’m not for a lot of the time. Like yesterday, which I’ll get to. People sitting next to you seem to be hit most. Actually, in a way, I was kind of annoyed how those next to me were affected more than me. For one it means it’s harder to play on the confidence and happiness and be congruent; I’m not so much the one spreading happiness and comfort but more the person people are around when they are happy and comfortable themselves, if that makes sense. But I guess I shouldn’t use them so much if I can’t play along with it and am just letting them do all the work.
If I’m honest I don’t remember anything significant about Tuesday or Wednesday. It was MB I used most this week but apart from things I’ve already mentioned, it’s hard to pin down things. No ‘hits’ that I’ve been aware of etc. On Thursday, with 2 sprays of MB and one of IS, I somehow managed to pay attention to a whole one hour lecture. I don’t know if the pheros had anything to do with it, but it was definitely unusual so I’m noting anyway. It’s not something I’m normally able to do, especially so late in the day. MB seems to lend itself to casual mateyness and general banter. But it’s not intense, suggestive or dominating in anyway that I’ve noticed, very non threatening. Is it possible that IH can increase distance, at least in an environment with several people all chatting happily? I used IH and IS on friday and until later in the evening I didn’t feel as if I was molding into people’s mindsets as much as I should’ve been, there wasn’t as great a communicative response in either direction. I don’t know. There may have been something else.
Yesterday I used one spray IS and one spray CTTM, and got good responses from teenage girls about my age. At one time, it was even noted that ‘wow someone smells really good’ ‘i hope it’s me’ ‘yeah it is’. BAM that was cool. I didn’t know them before that day but now we have excellent rapport. Oh and this guy as well was very eager to talk and joke with me, although that does seem to be his personality somewhat anyway. It’s surprising how many laughs and smiles you can share without words - expressions, eyebrows, and mime are all you need. Anyway, very good week. It’s great when people find you attractive, especially if they are themselves. I’m very eager to try A314 and/or IG actually, because they seem to be just up my street. Or that ‘light A314’. I’m loving IS, and will definitely buy that one again, but I feel like I’m running out of tools and toys. On one hand, I probably am achieving greater congruency over time, meaning more effectiveness. On the other hand, I’m feeling limited by these same few. IS and CTTM 2 are both versatile and brilliant, but I don’t want to feel like all I’m doing is repeating what other people have said.

Oh and to anyone actually reading this, are there ways I could make my testing / reporting more effective? Feedback of any kind? It’s getting lonely in here.

As far as testing goes, it is just trial and error. If you want to shake up your reporting style a bit you could always use some variation on the template that a lot of us use. How to Test and Report On Products UPDATED 12/01
