Just took a look at the bootcamp homework.
Here's 1 story, I can't figure out what category it falls under. More of like an AWWW and a HAHAHA
First girlfriend story How I had my first girlfriend. We started noticing each other when one day I really wanted a yellow crayon and she wanted my orange crayon. Then we started trading food from our lunch boxes. I told my dad about how I liked this white girl and he told me to ask her to be my girlfriend. We started holding hhands, then sneaking out of class to the bathroom and looking at each other, wondering what to do. At first, I wondered why she didn’t have a peepee, but then when I asked my dad, he laughed and told me girls don’t have those. Ahhh second grade, good times...

This is a great story!
I would say it's a pre-selected by women story. Just don't draw it out too much and keep it short. There's some Awwwww, moments there, but there's also a potential for this narrative to get really cheesy.

Good cheesy?
Well, I've finished the pre-bootcamp homework.. I've figured how to get into the zone
It's easy. Just be loud, obnoxious, and/or do something stupid that makes me laugh
I've got 3 DHV stories The preselection Ambition (my future plans of college, after college, and life) Protector of loved ones (my step dad was being rude to my mom and so I told him to leave)
and #1, it's just memorization. I'll memorize the main idea and improvise to make it more natural.
Hope I'm not revealing too much of it? I can delete if necessary

The only kind of good cheesy I am aware of is on pizza and burritos.
I'm saying your story is cheesy as in it's a stock archetype story of boy meets girl that Mickey Mouse shoved down our throats when growing up. Just keep your story simple and stay away from getting superfluous and over the top.
Don't sweat it on revealing too much about the homework, it's fine. Try to complete ALL the stories if possible. The homework is designed so that if you're having a difficult time coming up with a story for an attraction switch or trait, it means that is a part of your life that is missing, and you may want to consider trying something new so you can fill in the blank with an interesting and fun story. I know some students have trouble filling in a lot of the stories. If you can actually fill in every single one with a story that is interesting, relatable, and easily told within 2-3 minutes, then you're golden.
When I took my bootcamp about a year ago, I remember some of my fellow students didn't even bother filling out those stories and they had an extremely difficult time on the second night and moving forward. It totally sucked for them. One of my buddies from that bootcamp even told me that he would have gotten more results from his bootcamp if he actually rehearsed and thought through his story.
You're on the right track dude, just keep writing em down, keep them short, and practice telling them in a brief and relaxed manner.

Here are all 10. If you can help me fix up a few, that'd be great  Pre-Selection by Women We noticed each other the day we started trading crayons food from our lunch boxes. I told my dad about how I liked this white girl and he told me to ask her to be my girlfriend. We started holding hands, then sneaking out of class to the bathroom and looking at each other, wondering what to do. At first, I wondered why she didn’t have a peepee, but then when I asked my dad, he laughed and told me girls don’t have those. Future Ambitions I’ve always wanted to be in business because my dad had made it into the business world. And so I’m currently attending COD. But I’m planning to transfer to UCI as soon as I have the required credits and get my BA degree there. As soon as that happens, I’ll be entering into the financial world of investment banking and living my dream life. Man of Action & Protector of Loved Ones My mom was being disrespected by her boyfriend. I was neutral to him at the time, but when he started raising his voice, it felt like he had violated some sort of personal space, so I stepped in between them. We had an argument and he threatened to do the most horrendous things to me, but he realized he failed to intimidate me when I laughed at him. I told him good-bye, showed him the door and out he left. Passions I got off at the wrong stop on my bus and had to trek through a really ghetto neighborhood. I heard gunshots and, scared for my life, began running through as fast as I could. After I reached the barrier, I hopped over and walked to my gym like nothing happened. Financial Status I’m tutoring children for a good amount of money per hour once school starts (good for only having a high school diploma at least) Sense of Humor I think I’m hilarious. I make myself laugh all the time! Outrageous Energetic Playful I gathered a close group of friends. There were 2 girls, me, and a guy friend. During prom, at the hotel, we snuck into the pool and went skinny dipping with our clothes right next to the edge of the pool. It was exhilarating! The feeling of being caught at any moment and the pure craziness of skinny dipping during Prom made it extremely fun. Experienced man I can speak Vietnamese. Say “em biet bu cac nhu than” It means “I know how to suck dick like a god” Sexual safety with women I have many lady friends. Does that count? We flirt but I respect their personal space and don’t do anything but remain friends since I like them as friends. Like, I haven’t attempted to seduce them, but we share stories and laughs together.

You'll need to re-do some of these. Make sure you READ the description carefully.
Re-do these:
Passions Sexual Safety with Women Future Ambitions Experienced Man
Passions - This should be something you love to do, something you can probably do every day and not get tired of it. Good passions would include playing an instrument, painting, the arts, working on cars, an interesting hobby of some sorts.
Sexual Safety with women - The story needs to convey that you don't take sexual advantage of women. Having a lot of female friends just means you're pre-selected. A good example of a sexual safety story is your close female friend came on to you while she was incredibly drunk. You took her home, tucked her in, and left it at that because having sex with her would destroy your friendship.
Future Ambitions - Don't talk about the school you want to go to. In my eyes, a college degree doesn't mean shit, and college is a waste of time and money. Talk about WHAT business you want to start, how you want to do it, and how far you want it to go.
Experienced Man - You have a special talent or skill that only a handful of people in the world know of. I use this one a lot when I talk about shark diving, scuba diving, sky diving, shooting guns, and sometimes hacking (depending on the nerd-factor of the girl).
Keep in mind, ANYONE can write up these stories and call themselves a PUA - but I'm more worried about you getting your AA down before your program. Get your AA down as soon as possible. You're on the right track.

Ben J I'm one of those people who ignore specifics... bad habit.  The passions one was.. a passion for "fun and adventure and trying out new things" but I'll add a few more stories to that theme.. Future ambition - have my own business. Okay, I won't mention college. Thanks. I did mention it on my insta-date today, I believe she was bored, but then got interested when I talked about my own business. Sexual safety - I don't have an example of that yet.. Maybe I can say when my friend needed someone to go with him on a double date that wouldn't try to flirt with the girl, he picked me. We went on the double date and I kept my flirting down or it would make it look like he was friends with flirts? Idk ... I'll have to go experience this one Experienced man - Hmm.... Something that only a handful of people know... ice skating? I'm pretty well rounded... umm ... too bad picking up girls don't count.. does it? I'm experienced in it. Only a handful of people in the world know about it...

Hey LaughAndPeeBit, Some good stories you got there. Looks like you are preparing well for your bootcamp.  I got a similar story to the one about hanging out with a white girl in primary school. Which bootcamp are you attending? Are you going to the LA Bootcamp by any chance?
