I had made preparations (подготовку) for this meeting and for the agenda
(для всех вопросов на повестке дня). However, I wasn’t anticipating (ждать
с нетерпением) that I would be taking notes. I am willing (хочу) to
contribute (поучаствовать/внести свой вклад). I just wasn’t prepared, so
unfortunately I am not in a position (я не в силах/это не та ситуация, когда
я смогу) to take notes, but maybe next time. Just give the heads up first.
So how did I think I did? Clearly, after that exercise, I know that I have room
for improvement. So I’m just like, who out there is the expert on saying no?
I really want to talk to them because I have so many questions and I just don’t
want to feel as stressed out (подавлена) as I do at this moment.
I think the earlier career you are, the harder it is obviously, and with more
practice, you just get better. And I’m definitely better at saying no now than
I used to be.
