is learning to open herself to others. I'm not sure how, I'm not sure why, but she has been voicing out thoughts a lot more lately, and she's actually pretty comfortable with it. This is a pleasant surprise. :) To different people, different matters of varying importance. It's still not a lot, but at least it's a start. I can see where 2009 is going to head towards: Opening up more, AND learning to talk to an audience.
Jap class on friday terrified me because of the self introduction we had to give, and 1 1/2 yrs of non Japanese didn't exactly comfort me. At least it pleased me to know that liu sensei (haiz, got back her for my sensei, but at least I think she improved from intermediate times!) went through revision sentences before asking us to introduce ourselves. I did pretty badly, but at least I talked. And that's the start of everything isn't it? Pretty funny to discover a second Joyce sitting beside me after my self introduction.
I will learn to open up more in 2009, and not hide 100% of my thoughts. I will also learn to speak, and get some of that confidence that I am sooo lacking in. :) I actually like sharing my thoughts. :)
