My interests and hobbies are: anime and manga, video games, drawing and I'm thinking of joining a badminton club. I could join an anime/manga forum and try to be active in that community, maybe try to find some people who live close by. Same with the video games.
Okay, I'll have a look on Amazon and see what I can find there.
How do I control my state? Whenever I'm in a new social situation I get nervous. Not the best social state to be in.
Your advice seems good. Thankyou for all of your ideas.

Thanks for the advice. I remember one time when I made a joke on the spot and everyone laughed at it. I didn't really think about what I was saying or how it would come across. I was among friends too so that helped. Maybe I've just got to speak without overthinking?
RT Wolf:
If I walked up to 1000 people in a mall and tried to start a conversation with each one of them I bet I wouldn't feel as shy in approaching people. The tricky part is getting started. Fear keeps me from walking up to a stranger and saying "Hi, I'm James." How do I do small talk?

You mean like "I was watching Deathnote the other day and I got thinking. Wouldn't it be great if there was a Lovenote? You could write down anyone's name and they'd fall in love within a week. If you wrote how they fall in love it would happen just the way you wrote it."
"Just do it" Nike's advice strikes again!
Sometimes I wish I could turn off my ego. It's always telling me how bad things could be. Like 'What if he/she hates you?" "What if you make a complete fool of yourself?" Know of any way to tune that voice out and tune in to the voices of your spirit guides and intuition?
