Challenges
You never know what is waiting for you just in a second ahead so it's easy to understand the fear of it. You don't know what is going to happen to you.

I am sure that this describes everything in our life, and even the course task helps us to be prepared for everything. You would never do anything from the list I mention below in everyday life, but when it is nessessary to do you will not hesitate.
It's like watching a horrow movie: when you sit in front of the screen for the first time you're shivering, but the next time you watch it you will be laghing about what had scared you the last time.
So, my list of challenges is:
1) on Monday morning say "Good morning lady, how are you?" to a woman who sells the tickets on the train station
2) to start a dialogue with the quitest person I know in the universtiy
3) to remind my groupmates how much I love them in front of the proffesor or any different groups
4) to ask for a stop in marshrutka-bus when no one needs it
5) to dial a random number and to have a small talk with a person
6) to ask an assistant in the shop for any help
7) to say sorry to a person I have insulted
8) there is an after class-activity where I take part and we're preparing a lot of things and perfomances so they need fresh ideas, but as soon as I'm a newcomer I feel shy to share my ideas even if I have lots of them. So I want to share my thoughts with these people
9) my friend and I are football fans and it's a do-or-die thing when our teams play, but the problem is that we support different teams and moreover - they are rivals, so we quarrel a lot about it and the next time my team loses or his team wins I want to say some good words about it and not to argue
10) to tell a person how much I care about him and how much he means to me
Probably, that's not the hardest list of challenges you've ever seen, but for me it's quite complicated and we'll see how many of these points I will cross out in the end.
Wow, sounds really exciting! Looking forward to reading your reports on overcoming these challenges.
