Talk About A Boring Meeting You Had With Other People Cue Card

Who were the other people?

I went to a family reunion because our uncle , who had been evicted twice, had built a new house so everyone in the extended family was invited to a housewarming party.

Because it would have been extremely rude to refuse such an invitation, I was forced to abandon my weekend plans and travel four hours from the city to my ancestral village.

When I got there, I had to pretend to recognize distant relatives who could easily have been strangers for all I knew about them.

What did you converse about?

We went to the temple, it was a hot and muggy day, I was wearing a loose traditional Indian dress and what's more, I'm an atheist. Needless to say, I found this expedition increasingly cumbersome; it all seems like a huge waste of time.

When we got home, we had another ritual of singing for three hours while sitting around the fire. I was really fed up when it all started to end.

As if that wasn't enough, my aunt dragged me into the most boring and meaningless conversation I've ever had in my life. In general, I'm a great conversationalist and I love to listen, ask questions at appropriate times, and really get to know other people.

But it's really beyond me.

The girls in the village all sat in a circle and bragged to each other about how much milk their cows produced, how much money their husbands earned, and how many points their children got from age 4 to the final exam. Each sentence is repeated dozens of times, the conversations are superficial and intrusive.

How anyone can live a life that revolves around desire, I will never understand.

I believe in personal growth; If you try hard enough, you can learn anything.

Why discuss the mundanity of life when we need to talk about the wonders of possibility, learning and growth?

Explain why you found this meeting boring?

I feel so tired after a tiring day, I realize this isn't a nice thing to say but, oh my god!

Relatives are boring! Even when you're bored, you can't say anything because you're afraid your family will feel unwanted. It's a delicate balance between wanting to love them and looking at them affectionately without having the courage to talk for more than a few minutes. This is a story about a boring meeting I had to attend.

Who were the other people?

Last week I also received an invitation to my nephew's birthday party. I always look forward to attending such parties but unfortunately this event turned out not to be a fun experience for me. The scheduled time for the party was 6pm, but it was 6:15 pm and to my surprise, I was the first one there, even though the host had not arrived. I called my cousin and he told me they were on their way. Since I was alone until they arrived, I was bored and a little depressed. Finally, the host and other guests began to arrive. I was hoping to see some familiar faces with whom I could interact and have interesting conversations.

What did you converse about?

The party started at 7pm and the celebration included cake cutting and some performances by my nephew and his friends. Although I enjoyed their actions, I still felt bored because most of the guests present at the party were strangers to me and I couldn't find anyone to talk to. In fact, most of the guests were my cousin's office friends and my nephew's friends' parents. He invited some of our relatives and that was the main reason why I was looking forward to this event because I hadn't seen some of them in a while and it would be the perfect opportunity to catch up . But our loved ones were unable to attend the event due to prior commitments. When my cousin informed me that our other relatives would not be coming, I knew immediately that the evening would be difficult for me. Even though he tried his best to keep me entertained and occupied, he had other guests to take care of so I told him that he should focus on the other guests before anything happened. It will be fine.

explain why you found this meeting boring?

With nothing to do and no one to talk to, I took my phone and started recording videos of my nephew doing childish things. And that was the only good thing that happened to me that night. Then I showed those videos to my cousin and he also appreciated me and thanked me because he missed those small moments when he was busy entertaining guests.

Who were the other people?

From what I remember, the subject matter seemed somewhat interesting but the way he presented it was not. This teacher spoke so slowly and monotonously that I often spent my time daydreaming instead of concentrating. I also don't think I'm alone with my boredom.

What did you converse about?

Overall, the students seemed disengaged and unfortunately, Mr. Deeb made no adjustments in class but just stuck to his boring old script. It's a shame that all of this happened. Studying history can be fun, but that year I lost my motivation to study, which made things even more difficult.

Explain why you found this meeting boring?

Teachers expected us to memorize many important dates in history. To pass the exams, I really need to put in a lot of effort but sometimes I feel like studying is meaningless. Luckily, I now find reading and watching historical documentaries quite interesting. But in 10th grade, I was afraid to walk through that classroom door, because I thought it was the most boring place in the world.

thanks, That's all I have to say.
