How good are you at speaking infront of lots of people?

 

I used to be horrible, even infront of a small class of 20 kids, I'd stumble and mumble. I suppose I wasn't stand-out horrible, but in my mind, everyone was laughing at me, if I heard someone snigger, I assumed it was about my awful reading. In truth though I was just a kid who couldn't speak clearly and perfectly, like every other kid, nobody was laughing at me.

 

I was pretty much this way up until about age 15 or 16, there wasnt a drastic change, I just for some reason didnt feel any pressure, it's like one day it clicked and I realised it didnt matter.

 

Now I can speak infront of lots of people with no problem, and I have to as part of some Uni council meetings, infront of a conference of 80-120 people. Luckily I'm only a deputy and speak for about 10minutes, my friend is the main officer who has had to talk before for a full hour. I'd die, my voice would collapse. When it comes to singing at gigs (But not infront of very large crowds, same as the council meetings, about 100 people) I dont say anything in between any songs. I just always thought it sounded so lame when I go "Is everyone feeling alright?!" and get no response. So I just cut that right out, Bobby Dylan style (Though he's earned his dues, hmmm slightly more then me :rolleyes: ).

 

Have you ever spoken infront of large crowds? Share! SHARE WITH ME :D

My face turns uber red ...in the beginning my voice is soft. But if it is a good topic, then i feel nice and strong and I do a good job.

I love the word Uber. Have to remember to include it in my daily diction again.

 

Yeah if I feel I dont know what I'm talking about completely, or like I dont know what Im going to say next, I just freeze a little bit, and go red. Not as badly as I used to, but it happens in my film class.

NOooo

 

 

don't

 

 

Awe...I would like to see you public speak...just because I cannot imagine you

 

blushing :P

depends :/

 

when i'm sure in what i want to say it goes well,but if not and i'm trying to find some stupid,unlogic arguements it looks like i'm a clown :worried2:

If I enjoy the topic bunches.....i prolly could say I give like...really great speeches..

 

 

But I have always had teachers who are really bad at teaching it. So I had to teach myself or stay behind

NOooo

 

 

don't

Haha. Sometimes I go really red if a girl I dont like is flirting with me. It's not being flattered or blushing, it's being so embarassed and not knowing what to do.

 

I'll take a picture the next time I blush :P

Sometimes it's a big problem to me to speak in front of all my class.Everybody is looking at me and I can just forget my words or turn red....It's awful,I hate public speeches.

depends :/

So they always look like well you know...really lame

 

 

who is the sig guru here that can make Crystal one? I know it is off topic here so maybe i will edit this when it has been read?

Ahhh everything is off topic, dont bother editing ;)

 

I really dont know who the Sig Guru is, but they sound like a very strange and mystical character.

 

I think Alyssa made Eric a few recently, is it a banner you want? Or just like a Sig Decorator? haha
