Last year, I went skiing with my brother in Japan. It was our first time and I felt very scared because I had heard from my friend that many skiers got injured. I was scared to get hurt. But with my brother’s help, I gained the confidence to overcome my fear and got the courage to try it out.
When we arrived, we saw our instructor and he taught us the basics of skiing and then we started. My brother went first but he fell flat on his face, which made me feel terrified. However, he told me it was okay, so I skied down. It was not as bad as I expected and I didn’t fall flat on my face. I was delighted to have overcome my fears.
Teacher’s comment:
Good, first attempt to ski! I guess you’ll grow to love it because you’re a sporty girl!
