conv: My cousin invited me to go white water rafting with him. My took me white water rafting with him last week. When we got to the river I started having second thoughts. I've done that before. Getting over that initial fear is really hard. But it's fun once you do! I know_comma_ but since it was my first time I didn't know how to act. My mind started to go blank and I started to sweat profusely.  I understand completely. It's that initial anxiety. It's a scary thing to do!
