I am feeling tired.

Questions about feelings:
How do you feel?
How are you feeling?
How are you?
---
Many “how” questions are about good/bad or feelings:
How was the movie? (It was interesting.)
How is that book? (It’s boring.)
---
Ask four classmates these questions:
How are you today?
How is your English class? / How are your English classes?
How was the last movie you saw? (not “what”)
---
The usual conversation is like:
A: How are you? (or “How are you doing?” or “How are things?” or “How’s it going?”)
B: I’m fine, thanks. How about you?
A: I’m pretty good, thanks.
	(We don’t usually give strong answers to this question.)
---
A: What’s up? / What’s happening? / What’s going on? / What are you up to?
B: Nothing special. / Nothing much. / Not much. / Just hanging out.
