1. i did drama class back when i was 12. on the night of the show we had to do improvisation Embarassed

. A girl who went on before me had stolen the routine i did in rehersals (BITCH, lol), so i had to quickly think of something else Embarassed

. the room was packed wid my fam and everyone else. BUT somehow i thought of something just before it was my turn to go on and it worked. people were laughing and clapping. till this day i cant believe i did it. how da hell did i?? the thought of doing it scares me and at 12 i managed to get through. i stopped going after a while though....i got to nervous and anxious about what to expect to be doing each week.

I consider myself brave if l do just about anything around people Embarassed

This yr l've had dancing lessons, and went to a psycho drama class which was the hardest thing for an sp. Don't know how l endured it, but l want to try it again some time. Mental challenges are alot harder than physical challenges for me.

You sure have courage if you left home at 17 and done all those other things...

Really minor stuff lately all to do with work, but it's satisfying although stressful. Taking responsibility for the processing, printing and laminating of posters. Playing spy by calling up other print places and pretending to be a customer. Simply ignoring the taunting of the boss I count as success. I now just laugh and answer back.

The bravest things ever have only happened this year, and really they're not very brave. They are things I should have been able to do years ago.

Today I did something I'm proud of: I went to see the volunteer coordinator at my university and we had a long conversation trying to organise some workshops I'm setting up. I'm really pleased I've gone through with this (I've been putting it off for some time due to SP, but I really want to do this!!)... now if I can pull it off it completely it would be even better!

i left my home country for college couple of months ago to one which is completly different in every way possible. people say i am very brave to do that, but i am never satisfied with anything i do... Crying or Very sad

well yeah its good here although i am finding it very difficult to connect with people here due to my sa and more so due to to the HUGE culture difference from my home country. the language is definetly a problem and i refuse to talk even a sentence in it outside of my dutch class...feel so self concious Embarassed

other than this i find that the people are a lot nicer here than from where i am, so thats good. otherwise i would have just packed my bags and left for home.

and u went to india? i am from there. how did u find it there? where are u from originally?

Worrydoll, u're absolutely right when u say that the tourists dont really see the 'real india' when they come there. There's a lot one wont understand about the indian lifestyle unless they actually live there.

Also, its not easy to judge india just by the way the big cities and the urban life is. The life lead by the rural population in india is far different and to me thats what the real india is. I have lived there all my life but i still dont know as much about the rural india as i should. i can tell u that even many indians from the urban population take things for granted as they dont really go to the rural areas.

I think living there 4 months u have been able to realise that theres more to india than what meets the eye. i can tell u that most ppl dont even realise this. its nice to know that someone does Smile
