VOCABULARY – FEELINGS

Note the phrasal verbs connected with feelings.

Hi Francesca

I don’t know what I’d do without your support. At the moment, I’m finding it hard to
summon up the energy to get out of bed in the morning. I don’t know if I’ve gone off the
idea of making a career as a singer or if I just don’t care for the type of music the band is
playing now. I feel as if the band leader has got something against me and is trying to turn
the other members of the band against me too. I know I need to loosen up and that I
mustn’t work myself into a state about it – staying calm and confronting him is the only
way to resolve the situation – but I feel so low, I can’t face it.
Love Phoebe

Hi Phoebe
I understand just how low you’re feeling, but you can snap out of it and not give in to all
these negative thoughts! I know you, and I know you can get through this. I think you’re
secretly hankering after a change and perhaps leaving the band would be a good idea. If
you do decide that’s the best way forward, I’m sure you’ll soon perk up and be your usual
self, brimming with enthusiasm for everything!
Love Francesca
