First Post and Two Months and Counting

It's been two months since I graduated from UCSD with a degree in economics and I have been slowly adjusting to life back home in San Francisco.

Two years ago, while I was at UC San Diego, I started a project that would help me in dealing with my social anxiety and my social awkwardness by keeping a log and analyzing my social interactions around campus.  I kept a log of my social interactions with various people across campus in INTJ@UCSD, intjucsd.blogspot.com.  In the end I felt that I have made significant progress in dealing with my social anxiety.  I was no longer afraid of talking to others, going to new places or experiencing new things, but every now and then I would trip up and do something stupid or give off the wrong body language.  I still feel that I have some work to do in order to finally cure my social anxiety.  This blog will be a continuation of that project.

Before I begin again, I want to once again thank Terra Bailey, Resident Dean of UCSD's village transfer housing, and Dr. Jeffery Poizner, Post doc fellow at UCSD CAPS.  Both of them were a tremendous help to me during my time at UCSD.
