As a child, I was quite reserved and lonely. It was hard to reach out to people and especially make friends. Then I met Kate. She was a new captain in our trivia club at school. She'd just moved from another city, and it was her first week there. We immediately liked each other. We had the same taste in music, art and movies. She laughed at my jokes and was always there for me. We've been best friends ever since. C. I don't know where it all came from, but as long as I remember myself, I always lacked confidence. When coming to a shop or other public place, I thought people were staring at me and judging me for the way I looked. I felt insecure because of my height and awkwardness. Not to mention a dark birthmark all over my face. Nobody would say anything, and yet, I was blinded by the fear of being different. It was the most terrible time of my life. D. My best childhood memories are about staying with my granny. She was such a sweet and caring person. Everyone was warmed and welcomed by her. Having a tough post-war childhood herself, she never put it on her family. She was short and plump with lots of wrinkles. We called her our "sun", as she lit up the room with her smile. There was no trouble which she wouldn't have taken care of. She loved us with all her heart. E. I've noticed that teenagers and young adults worry too much about everything. They are afraid of going on adventures, they are less energetic during the days. But I have a friend who is quite the opposite. His name is Sam. He's 68 years old, but he's much more cheerful and active than the rest of the people I know. He rides a bike every morning and takes part in charity running races. He has three voluntary jobs and a wild dream of setting off on a voyage around the world. What a man! F. My friend once had a foreign student from Asia in his class. The boy seemed scared at first, but after several days he got used to the new environment. Which couldn't be said about other kids. They kept the distance and didn't let the boy into their circle of friends. He didn't look like them and did some strange things like bowing to every senior person at school. Yet, he was very friendly and always smiled. Eventually, he made some friends, but he never really felt like one of them. G. My mother is a makeup artist, and everyone thought I'd take after her. But I was never interested in fashion. I don't understand why women spend lots of money on expensive beauty products and plastic surgeries. Some people even consider it inappropriate to go out without makeup. Well, I certainly feel confident enough not to care about that. I love and accept myself the way I am. Questions to think about Would you be a suitable candidate for an Assistant Manager position? Do you have a soulmate? Describe him/her. How do you feel in public places? Who is the kindest person you know? Why? Are you an adventurous person? What would you do if you had a foreign student in your class? Do you think it is necessary to wear makeup?
