I went to amateur night last night and I was supposed to sell drinks and dances up until the contest... but I was too shy to approach anyone and I followed my dancer friend around like a lost puppy.
Then for the contest, I picked maybe the worst song ever, Heirate Mich by Rammstein, and everyone else did rap songs. Then when I got onstage I kinda froze up and did a lot of rolling around and humping the air and I made $1 which came from a dancer. I felt like I was in some kind of nightmare. My whole body was burning from blushing so bad. I actually got booed. I was pretty aggrivated, so when we all came out to dance together at the end, I did the Macarena. When it was over I wanted to cry.
However, after about half an hour I felt okay enough and decided to keep trying, and ask for a job, and the manager told me to come back today to fill out paperwork. He didn't hesitate, so I guess that's good.
Do you guys think I'll get the hang of this? There's a $30 house fee so I have to make money tonight. Any tips on how to approach people when you're so shy you're afraid nothing will come out when you try to talk?
