Unit 1. Lesson A.

Do you need to slow down?

I don't really think I get stressed easily. But sometimes I do it, in lines, for
example. 
I always try to do things carefully but not quickly. 
I usually a very patient person but sometimes I get impatient easily, for examples
in lines. 
As usual I'm not in a hurry. I always try to take my time to do different things. 
I'm both a fast eater and I like to enjoy my food also.  

Example 1
I don't think I need to slow down. I always plan my time well and I do things at the
right speed. I like to do important things like college assignments carefully and I
do them well. I usually finish them on time and I never send them in late. I get a lot
of As, too, so I think I'm doing something right. I don't get stressed easily, either. I
think I live my life at the right pace for me.
 
Example 2:
I think I probably need to slow down a little because I do everything really quickly.
For example, I get dressed quickly in the mornings and run out of the house, and I
eat all my meals quickly and then my stomach feels bad. I run around a lot because
I'm usually late for class and work and I get stressed easily, especially when I'm
late with an assignment. I take my sports very seriously and I go running two or
three times a week with my running club. My friends tell me I should slow down
and take it easy, but there's so much I want to do. I can't slow down.

As a rule, I'm a careful driver. But also I'm an impatient driver especially if the

carefully every day.
