Do we really feel socially developed... ?

The answer....? HELL YEAH! :) On the 7th of September we had a social development class with a man called Austin Dunne. I really didn't know what to expect about the day :/ But I have to say I really do think our class "Eriú" really got to know each other at the end of the day :')
Firstly we were split into pairs according to our birthday! We had to share each others most embarrassing stories in front of the whole class! It was really funny! :L We were then divided into groups for different debates. It was hilarious watching our class mates really getting into it!

After break we did this really interesting exercise. Each person in the class was given eight cards with different personality traits. Our job was that we had to walk around the room and give a card to who ever we felt portrayed them the most. Each card was coloured and after we had to count the most colours we had! They each represented four different personality types "Sanguine, Choleric, Melancholic, and Phlegmatic" I turned out to be Phlegmatic which meant according to google....... I "tend to be self-content and kind. They can be very accepting and affectionate. They may be very receptive and shy and often prefer stability to uncertainty and change. They are very consistent, relaxed, calm, rational, curious, and observant, making them good administrators. They can also be very passive-aggressive." I don't know if they are good things or not... :/ :LThen Austin stood at the top of the room and read out these statements if they applied to you, you took a step to the right/left and if they didn't you stayed on the spot. In the end two groups were at each side of the room and we were declared "Introverts and Extroverts". No surprise there I am an extrovert which basically means I like to talk... ALOT! :D

We finished the day off with loads of different exercises like the proper way of shaking hands! :) The day went so fast and not to be cheesy or anything but I think loads of people really did learn lots about themselves and others! :') Good job guys! Team work or what?! :L
