The real problem for me isn't shyness, it's that at Startup School, PG is constantly surrounded by people who want to talk to him, and I don't want to add to that.
(But then I got lucky and ran into him at Opzi the day after Startup School.)

I emailed Kristy my brief thanks after the event, but would like to explain that I attended my first Startup School last year: it was one of the best events I've ever attended. Hard to nail down the adjectives, but let me simply describe it as inspiring++. Met some great friends and people. Each speaker delivered interesting stories, perspectives, and tips. Couple of the most memorables ones for me are the Airbnb story, and Ron Conway's story of a Christmas Party with Larry and Sergey. I just found out about Startup School, HN, YC last year and am very grateful for it: thanks!
