I’m going to talk about communication skills. I remember two or three years ago my mother taught me how to communicate with others because I was shy and also I’m not social person. I always like I didn’t know how to make new friends but I always strive to be confident and independent. Yeah I know at the time I felt a little bit upset and disappointed But anyway, it was one of the most extremely essential part of my life to learn how to make new friends. And so two or three days ago, I made a new friend, her name is Ayaro, and I met her when I studied English classes. And so I used a lot of methods of my mother. Yeah, I always often my friends always offer me to go to the event or party, but you know, I’m a shy person. That’s why I can’t go. I just, oh no, you know, I’m shy. That’s why I don’t wanna go there. But of course, my mother always advised and also recommended, but you are a teenager. You should go, you are a young person. So I always go to the party nowadays. Yeah, it is a little bit daunting and also challenging, but anyway, I strive to achieve my goals.
