Day 80 – Anthony

It’s been a very eventful few days, culminating in a very good night.
Reunited with an old aquaintance, hit a strip club, saw a chick light her feminine parts on fire, got a double lapdance from two BAD bitches, flew around some streets in my friend’s Acura… wow.
Spent alot of money which I’m suddenly not saying no to as much.
Drank with co-workers in the one place you shouldn’t drink with co-workers.
Played in an official rugby game/scrimmage, got my first tackle in thanks in part to all the training I’ve been doing with Spencer.
Bombed a test.
Got yelled at for irresponsible financial decisions made on my part.
Got my laptop back, currently getting music back on there.
Cleared up some issues with some women.
Took a blood test.
Sent an email that may or may not affect my future.
Attended a lecture about intelligent design, learned nothing.
All this is just what I could remember. We got pics too.

Day 69 – ant

Past few days it’s been alot of drinking and partying. Debauchery is what college is about beyond that whole “learning” thing. The “yes” lifestyle and being pro-active has gotten me a new living quarters, couple of primal liasons (party debauceries… and other things >=)), and further personal exploration. Some pictures for the road.

Day 62 – Anthony

The yes’s have been everything from regular to… unique. I think I might’ve gone through 80% of what Spencer did his first time he did this experiment.

In short, alot of parties, alot of drinks, alot of good aura being thrown around. I got drinks from two guys in granny-robes (mumu’s). I got married on Facebook. I shaved my friend’s head with no previous experience in haircutting. All things I’d never done before but said yes to anyway. This is growth. This is… fate?

Day 57 – ant

It’s been a weird few days. Due to some other experiments I’m doing w/ Spencer @ bachelorlabs plus class & work haven’t gotten into too much. The yes’s are there; said yes to working in cold rain which has got to be the most displeasurable shit I’ve ever done in my lifetime(my feet went numb about 6 times!), yes to drinks with a friend and a new aquaintance which kind of ended like;

Her: “well Anthony, I learned nothing about you tonight besides the fact that you’ve had sex and eat pussy”.

Beyond all this it’s been much personal insight. I have alot to learn; I’m a great guy but too much of a mystery for some people to deal with for starters. But hey… life ain’t over.

Day xx – Spencer

I’ve put this experiment on the back burner. This was my second time doing it and it was not the same for a couple of reasons:
1. Before there weren’t really any rules or money limits. It was simply yes to everything. Nor did I have anything going on in that part of my life: it was summertime, and I was working full-time.
2. I wasn’t as excited for it and ready to jump on all the new opportunities. My head wasn’t in it as much the second time around.

What’s next?
Ant may go on to finish the 100 days, I have not spoken with him yet. In the meantime, we have started a new challenge: 100 workouts. We won’t be blogging about this one but we have taken before pics and will post our progress pictures (most likely on bachelorlabs.com).

We are following the StrongLifts 5×5 program (stronglifts.com) which calls for three workouts per week, so this one will take a while. We are also focusing in on our diets, though do not yet have any rigid guidelines in place.

Here are our (ar ar ar) Twitter usernames — probably the best way to follow us (pun unintentional and not funny, I know…):
@djmainevent – Ant
@oh_really_us – me

Finally, if you’re thinking of doing a yes challenge, I would recommend it. It regularly pushed me outside of my comfort zone (moreso the first time around) and I was a lot happier than I normally am.

All the best,
Spencer

Day 51 – ant

Went to dinner with one of my post-grad buddies, caught up with some other friends who suggested I get cracking on fuckin’ some new wimmins. As a wise man once twitted, “it’s raining ass outside, why stay in the house?”

ps; we’ve determined I’m usually picky.

pps; the motto I’m adopting for the time being courtesy of @eyanj on twitter IS; AIRTHANG TURNT UP.

The Halfway Point – ant

So. The halfway point of this challenge. It’s been fun, done some interesting things, met some interesting people, yaddayaddayoomboom. I’ve learned there are reasons why I say “no” to things and they’re legit. Saying “yes” is kind of like saying “bring it universe! and all your minions too!”. Like giving the middle finger to existence while playing “drive” by incubus. 50 more days, insert a motivational statement after the (.)

Day 50 – ant

Said “yes” to Denny’s with Trent and friends. Good times.

Day 49 – ant

So I got back into college, signed up to work a food & wine festival on the beach, had phone sex with someone out of sheer curiousity, defeated the guy who taught me how to play b33r p0ng at his own game and got back into a work/life/workout routine.

Not a bad start to the new year.

Day 46 – ant

Yes to dinner with my grandparents and their friends. *shrugs*
