Challenge №8 "Shopping"

-
We have only one week left and session is coming. So we should hurry up to finish our 10 challenges. Today is time for the 8th one. My task was to go to the expensive shop, try on one thing or scan an item for a while and then leave the shop without buying anything.

Today I had some free time in the morning and I decided to go to the shop. I went to the shopping center where I visited Zeppelin. This shop is quite expensive for me and for other people too, I suppose as this shop is not as crowded as less expensive ones. So I entered the shop. And a shop assistant came to me immediatly to suggest his help. Of course, I refused as it was the condition of my challenge. I scanned the items and the prices were really high. For example, the trousers cost about 12000 rubles. I didn't try on anything because I was afraid to damage something.

I can say that I felt uncomfortable. I understand that the shop assistants are the same students just like me. And they were not as scaring as I expected. But anyway I had the feeling that I didn't fit that shop. 

Also it occured to me that I don't understand people who are ready to spend so much money to buy clothes. It's very strange for me.

Three useful tips to overcome stage fright

Performance situation is usually a stressful one. But we can always reduce the level of stress by following some tip which help in overcoming physical simptoms. The main idea of the first tip is to recognize the stress as excitment. You need to decieve your body by thinking of the presantation as something "fun" rather than stress. In this way adrenaline rush works for you rather than against you. The second tip I found useful is watch what you eat. And the most important thing here (at least for me) is about sugar. The sugar level should be neither too low nor too high. But if you really needs happy food, you just must eat something that makes you happy. For me it's always chocolate. That's why I had some problrms with sugar level but now I try to maintain it. And the last tip but not the least. Make yourself laugh. I have noticed that every successful person has a good sense of humour. There is a physiological reason for it. The more enjoyment you are feeling...

Nowadays we can do many things with the help of the Internet avoiding personal communication with people. We ca order food, buy clothes, book tickets. But sometimes we have to talk to a worker of an organization to ask for some information. And my challenge of this week was connected with this activity.  On Tuesday I called to a hospital to make an appointment for my granny. That hospital was private. I couldn't get throgh for a long time. And then they recalled me. I made an appointment. Maybe, this action was not quite similar with one I nad planned to do but the main idea is the same, I think.  The main fear was that the stuff of the organization might be impolite with me or I might get lost. This fear may be the result of the old tradition. We get used that the ladies engaged in services are not always polite with clients. But this hospital turned out to be very good from this point of view that made me glad.

I have so many situations when I sit down to write a speech but I don't have any idea how to start, what examples to bring and how to make it creative and interesting to listen. Fortunately, there are some methods to overcome the crisis. In this post I will try them starting with the warm-up. Warm-ups One letter The main idea of this warm-up is to choose a letter and then name at least 10 words staring with this letter. I take the letter "l" and the words are: life, line, landscape, league, leapfrog, lemon, level, look, love, lost . Random words At the website https://www.textfixer.com/tools/random-words.php I need to generate 5 words to write a paragraph using them. Yesterday I got a strange, mystical letter from an anonym. This anonym made me an appointment on  my balcony to tell me the shocking truth . So today after turning back from my work, I'm a diplomatic agent by the way, I hope to find out who this anonym is or who makes this kind...
