Service Challenge

This week for the service challenge, I decided to do a few things. The first was to try and make eye contact and smile at the people that I passed by on the way to my classes. As easy as this seems, it was actually quite a challenge for me. I really struggle with this kind of thing, meeting new people is one of my biggest fears. After a while, however, it became much easier. I love making people happy and this is a small way that I can do that. 
My second goal was to vocalize every compliment that I thought in my head. I often see someone and think something nice about them but I don't say it out loud. I really wanted to change that because I know that getting a nice compliment can make people so happy.
The last thing I did for this challenge, along with a few of my friends from the class, was hand out candy at the testing center. We stood at the bottom of the stairs where everyone comes when they are done with there tests and gave everyone who walked by a piece of candy. Some of the people we gave it to were so excited! It made me so happy to be making others happy. In fact, we decided to do it every Friday!
