Do you like making friends?notes
Absolutely /ˈæbsəluːtli/, I thoroughly /ˈθʌrəli/ enjoy /ɪnˈdʒɔɪ/ making new friends. I believe /bɪˈliːv/ that forming connections with people from diverse /daɪˈvɜːs/ backgrounds not only /ˈəʊnli/ broadens /ˈbrɔːdn/ my horizons but also enriches my life in countless /ˈkaʊntləs/ ways. It's fascinating /ˈfæsɪneɪtɪŋ/ to learn about /əˈbaʊt/ different cultures /ˈkʌltʃə(r)/ and perspectives, and building friendships is a gateway /ˈɡeɪtweɪ/ to those /ðəʊz/ experiences /ɪkˈspɪəriəns/.
notes
Yes, I was quite /kwaɪt/ a social butterfly during/ˈdʒʊə.rɪŋ/ my childhood /ˈtʃaɪldhʊd/. Being involved in various/ˈveəriəs/ extracurricular /ˌekstrəkəˈrɪkjələ(r)/ activities /ækˈtɪvətiz/, such as sports teams and art classes, afforded/əˈfɔːd/ me the opportunity /ˌɒpəˈtjuːnəti/ to meet a plethora /ˈpleθərə/ of peers/pɪə(r)/. Many /ˈmeni/ of those friendships were cultivated/ˈkʌltɪveɪt/ over shared interests /ˈɪntrəst/and have stood /stʊd/ the test of time. Looking back, I'm grateful for those early /ˈɜːli/ connections that shaped my social skills /ˈskɪlz/.
notes
Indeed, I have. I recently started volunteering/ˌvɒlənˈtɪə(r)/ at a local community /kəˈmjuːnəti/ center, and through this experience, I've /aɪv/ crossed paths/pɑːθ/ with like-minded/ˌlaɪk ˈmaɪndɪd/ individuals /ˌɪndɪˈvɪdʒuəl/ who share/ʃeə(r)/ my passion for giving back. We've bonded over our common goals and have begun /bɪˈɡʌn/ spending time together outside of volunteering, exploring other mutual /ˈmjuːtʃuəl/interests /ˈɪntrəst/.
notes
Our conversations /ˌkɒnvəˈseɪʃ(ə)n/ are quite multifaceted /ˌmʌltiˈfæsɪtɪd/. We delve/delv/ into discussions/dɪˈskʌʃ(ə)n/ about current events, share our thoughts on literature /ˈlɪtrətʃə(r)/ and cinema/ˈsɪnəmə/, and sometimes engage in friendly/ˈfrendli/ debates/dɪˈbeɪt/ on philosophical/ˌfɪləˈsɒfɪk(ə)l/ topics. We also confide/kənˈfaɪd/ in each other about personal challenges /ˈtʃælɪndʒ/ and aspirations/ˌæspəˈreɪʃ(ə)n/, providing support and encouragement /ɪnˈkʌrɪdʒmənt/. Additionally/əˈdɪʃənəli/, we enjoy light-hearted /hɑːtɪd/ banter/ˈbæntə(r)/ and often reminisce/ˌremɪˈnɪs/ about amusing/əˈmjuːzɪŋ/ past experiences.
Today, I facilitated a tutoring session for my students, which turned out to be quite intensive. To be honest, I felt a bit overwhelmed during the process. Afterwards, I decided to unwind by doing some skipping, setting myself the goal of completing 3,000 jumps. Even though I hit a wall halfway through and felt like I couldn't continue, I managed to push through and reach my target. In the evening, I treated myself to a stir-fry of green vegetables with prawns. The prawns were incredibly tender, and the dish ended up being absolutely delicious.
