Team building The team which I am working with are going to have a team building next month. It’s the first time I participate in a collective activity since I started to work. To be honest, I don’t really like to take part in a collective activity like this. As I told you before, I’m not quite good at getting along with other people. I would feel a little uncomfortable especially with these guys which I met (or should I use ’know’) for such a short time. And there’s another thing which is we have some foreign team members that means we need to speak English during the whole activity. I feel very anxious about this. I still can’t speak English fluently during my daily life. If I can choose, I’d rather stay at home alone. But I still need to be there when the day comes. It’s part of my work which I can’t reject. The team building will last for two days including a night. We will have a half day roundtable meeting at the company at first. The boss will give us some inspire talking I think. Other team members will talk something about their work or how they want to improve their working in the future. For me, I don’t know what I should say for now. Maybe just like other people. I just hope I can say that fluently in English. After the meeting, we will order something take-out for lunch. Then we will start the ‘activity part’. We’ll drive to a karting venue for driving karts. I like driving and I haven’t driven karts before, I think that will be fun. We are going to carry out some other team-building exercises at the second day. No matter what those would be, I wish I could let my colleagues understand what I am talking in English. So I am going to learn some new words relative to the activity from now on. Actually, I think I should thank for that I can have a good opportunity to speak English whole day like this. It’s really helpful to practice my speaking English.
