first day of class

My first communication class:
Hello, my first day of class was not what I was expected, I really enjoyed it and I didn't feel being uncomfortable.
Professor Santo Trapani is very entertaining, he started right away with an activity to introduce each other. I did not like this kind of exercise at the beginning but it was actually a great activity because I already can see that we are a great group. I know that at the end of the semester my communication skills will improve since I am not a big talker. I like the way the professor described the word “yourself”, the self is pure and the you is what is exposed to the world, I have never think about it, I even took the same word in my language just to see.
After the break we did another activity by introducing one classmate to the class, it was a good exercise for the next homework we have to present next class, very helpful. We talked about self-disclosure, he gave us some examples of what he is expecting us to present to the class and he also explained us about intrapersonal and interpersonal (relationship) communication.
We also went through the syllabus and all the assignments that we will do. I believe that I am going to enjoy this class even though it will demand a lot of effort especially for the group project.
However, professor Santo Trapani motivates all the class and I believe that we all going to do a great job by learning new communication skills.
