English Club "What Happened When..."

Have you ever thought 'what could happen when...'. It seems we seldom think at all. Sometimes emotions lead us to situations that make you feel like in a mould. Let's discuss some questions related to this topic together. First, do you know the official 'national motto' of the United States? If 'yes', then let's be united in our thoughts.
Fun Fact of the Day: Do you know what the official “national motto” of the United States is (E Pluribus Unum)? What does it mean? “Out of Many, One” (awesomeamerica.com).

1. Have you ever… done something that you thought you would not like but actually loved it after trying? What did you do, and do you still p
articipate in this activity?
2. Have you ever… fallen asleep while in a compromising place or position? What happened when you woke up? Has a similar thing ever occurred again?
3. Have you ever… given a false excuse to get out of something that you did not want to do? If so, what did you say? Was this lie ever exposed afterwards? If you have not done this, have you thought about doing so? In what circumstances do people tend to give false excuses the most?
4. Have you ever… had a dream that you thought was real? What happened in this dream? Do you often have realistic dreams? Did you consider these as cases of “déjà vu”?
5. Have you ever… played a practical joke or prank on somebody you know or even a complete stranger? What did you do and how did they react to this situation? Is there a specific joke or prank you would like to do in the future? Who is your target and how do you think this will go over?
6. Have you ever… said something that you quickly regretted, or conversely, kept silence when you wish that you had spoken out? What were the results of your actions? What do you think would have happened if you had done the opposite?
7. Have you ever…spoken to yourself in public, or thought about something funny and started laughing out loud in the presence of others? How did they react to your outburst?
8. Have you ever… done something extreme or exhilarating? What did you do and how did you feel after accomplishing this feat? Would you repeat your actions in the future or try anything else that is similar?
9. Have you ever…forgotten what you were saying, doing, or where you were going at a given moment? Did this embarrass you? What is the strangest thing you have ever forgotten to do?
10. Have you ever…surprised another person or yourself with your actions or words? What were the circumstances of these surprises: a gift, a party, a new food, a letter, a vacation idea, a new job, etc.? Is there anything you wish someone would surprise you by doing someday? What other “have you ever” questions would you like to ask our club?
