早上好！
早上好,蓋文!你昨晚睡得好嗎？
我睡得像個嬰兒.我昨晚很快就睡着了,而且一次都沒醒過,也沒有做惡夢.
這可是個好消息!你看上去比昨天輕鬆多了.
我覺得好多了,可是對有些事情還是有些擔心.
擔心什麼?
呃,我今天上午要去學校開個會,我肯定會遇到上班高峯而堵在路上.
這的確挺煩人的.但沒什麼可擔心的.
對於我來說,堵車會讓我覺得非常焦慮,因爲我特別沒耐心.如果遇到堵車,怎麼才能讓自己不那麼緊張呢?
當你心情不好的時候就深呼吸.
我會試試看的.
還有其它的事情讓你煩心嗎?
還有一件事.有個學校今天早晨打電話給我,問我願不願意這週末去他們那兒教幾節課,我不知道該怎麼辦.
你週末有什麼其它安排嗎？
我要寫一篇下週一要交的論文.
不要承擔太多你應付不了的事情.
你說的對.我是應該只專心寫我的論文.謝謝!
