the inside job #5

last semester i took a interpersonal communication class and it was the BOMB.COM if you ever have the chance to take that class at any school DO IT.
i learned so much, but thats besides the point.
in the class sometimes we were given homework assignments and other times we were given personal "challenges"&  then we would report on how we did the next class period.
one of the challenges was to not say anything negative for 2 days [until the next class period] 
i gladly took on the challenge THINKING it would be easy, little did i know i was wrong.
as soon as i walked out of that class i looked at my friend and said "that was sooo boring"
she just started laughing at me because we had received the challenge literally 2 minutes before and i ALREADY broken it.
just made me realize that sometimes we say or think negatively without even paying attention or noticing it. 

have YOU had any stories when you should have thought first before you spoke?
