Uni is COOL

Uni.. really is cool eh?!

i just got named the most improved speaker which is really touching for me cos i rarely get most improved in anything ever..
i improve, but i'm never ever the most improved in the class or team.

Honestly speaking, i gave up on this mod after i bombed my first speech (i tried to do a syria speech in obama style, but it was too serious for me and apparently it wasn't my style. I practiced really hard for that one too, memorised the whole speech.) I got horrible results for the first speech and decided to S/U this module, so for this speech, i actually prepared the day before the assessment lol. I literally got home in the afternoon, typed in randomly like i would type a blog post, practiced a few times before sleeping, practiced somemore in my car on my way to school, and gave it. Thats why i read from the script cos i didnt bother to memorise. I wish i did now, though. Had no idea it would be so well received. The whole class was gushing afterwards during feedback session it was really heartwarming cos i'm never on the receiving end of this kinda stuff. I always go into these SS and GEM mods (outside my engineering curriculum) with the mentality that its a waste of time, but i always come out being surprised and being the most touched by these modules.

The teacher said i must have trained really hard to improve so much =D She complimented my audience interaction, use of pauses and even my enunciation (which was always a problem cos i usually speak really quickly)

I didn't train at all. I just gave the speech as Wang Zhikai instead of someone else.



Uni is really amazing.

My dad saw the vid and he's really proud of me, but i want to make him prouder.
I'm naturally talented and gifted, but talent is nothing without hard work.
I will work harder in everything.
My studies, my eloquence, my allroundedness as a musician and as a sportsman.
I will become the perfect being, the perfect son.
