I have trouble trying to speak clearly since I was a kid.
Possibly its due to my overcrowded crooked teeth that makes me harder to pronounce properly (note that I have a great phobia for dentist that stopped me from wearing braces when i was 13)
.. or maybe I am just plain lazy.
I thought I should have gone for speech therapy when I was young = =
But I didnt have trouble talking out loud in public all my life until recently since I got into Uni in a foreign country.
Okay okay, I still talk a lot, but not in class ok!
Somehow I have lost my confidence to speak up in class (where im the only one asian there).
I stuttered everytime I tried to talk - which was super annoying cause my course mates couldn't understand what I was trying to say.
So I thought having a video diary would help me improve my speech.
My Vlog
(I have no intension to post this up in public at 1st actually)
I apologize for changing my voice all the time (= =') but I don't like hearing my own voice lol..secondly, it's my 1st time playing around with the clip adjustments in iMovie 11 :P
Funny thing is I didn't plan to put any accent, but it somehow automatically switched on everytime I tried to say it out loud and clear.
What I'm actually disappointed about myself about is... how my english speaking is getting worst over the years.
I listened to my old cassette diary recorded when I was in primary 6 (yes, I used to record my daily activity using a walkman too!).. and I'm seriously shocked to know that I sounded better back then!
When I was a kid, one of my dreams was to be a reporter ToT
Now, I can't even speak properly in front of a recording camera, I even lost for words easily and started saying nonsense... Not to mention, my front crooked teeth that will drive people crazy.
Daymn, Li'l Pu3 must be really disappointed to see me now.
No no! I should not let myself down!
Practice! Practice!
