Exercise 9, page 125.0:00
I had never been on holiday without my parents before, so I was very worried about going to the summer camp.0:05
I thought that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would get lonely.0:11
In the end, though, I had a fantastic time.0:16
I met some wonderful people and really enjoyed all the activities.0:19
I can't tell you how glad I am that I went to the camp.0:23
I don't know what happened to me.0:28
I had been looking forward to doing that skydive all week.0:30
I mean, one minute I was all excited about it, the next I felt physically sick and just couldn't imagine jumping out of that plane anyway.0:33
I tried to ignore the fear and just do it anyway, but I really couldn't.0:40
Well, I don't know what I was thinking when I booked the skiing holiday.0:46
You know, that I'm not really a daring, sporty kind of person.0:50
I mean, I usually spend my weekends doing calm, safe activities like going for nice walks or reading books.0:55
Oh, well, I guess it's good to take risks and do something different.1:02
Sometimes it makes you a stronger person.1:06
When Tom and the others first told me I should ask Ben out for a coffee, I said, absolutely not.1:11
I don't even know if he likes me.1:18
But they just kept saying it again and again until I agreed to ask him.1:23
Well, I'm happy to say that I did ask him and he said yes.1:28
You see, it just shows that it's worth taking a risk sometimes.1:32
When I first got the job at the cafe I loved was great to have some extra pocket money and some of my friends already worked there, but.1:39
Which made it a lot of fun.1:47
But now I'm starting to get really behind with my schoolwork.1:50
I'm so tired when I get home from work that I just don't have the energy to do my homework or anything else.1:55
I might give the job up.2:02
I really regret applying for it.2:04
