[ 978. Public Speaking ]
It's vcd marathon today... haha. caught maid in manhattan earlier from 12 to 2, followed by the lizzie macguire movie from 230 to 4. This two movies are strangely irrelevant to each other, but there's a common issue in both: the lack of confidence in public speaking. Chris marshal and tye has a problem in addressing crowds in their speeches, and lizzie just has this natural knack for screwing up in front of crowds, be it making disasters such as the collapse of the stage, or simply stuttering and forgetting your lines.
Which reminded me. I can't speak in front of crowds for nuts. Ok, i can deliver a message, but i realize i never possessed the charimsa to speak in front of crowds. Either i'll end up losing their attention, or i simply confuse them. Right... perhaps that's why i never liked the idea of public speaking, though ironically i talk a lot to friends and such. Still remembered when i was helping to run the show back in sec 4 vsco camp, half the time i forget what i wanted to tell the people and ended up repeating my announcements lots of times. Haha. Even in jc1, when i was pushed forward as a pre-u sem presenter, ms g pushed me so hard to practise till i almost broke down during one of the rehearsals. I had to pray so hard before each rehearsal for the rehearsal to push through smoothly and that i won't get screwed. But well, i almost forgotten my lines that day, for the record. But thanks to noraida, my partner-in-crime... everythin went smoothly. Yeah. Hahah. As far as i'm concerned, the only public speaking opportunity that i didn't screw up was the project work presentation. Haha, except that ten people wasn't much of a crowd. Hehs.
Well, guess as i enter cs next year, chances for public speaking will definitely increase. Be it during coursework, or in ccas or other opportunities... i betta buck up man. Darn these public speaking stuff.
