I missed my speech!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It has been warm and beautiful weather in Santa Barbara since spring break. I am so happy for this cuz this sun shine keep making me happy;) If I might say something bad side of this weather is since the summer time started which is about few weeks ago,daytime got so long but it made night time shorter. It feels strange that the sun ususally set around 8 p.m. So even though, it is around 7 or 8, it is still light. I feel like I am loosing night time instead.....I dont know if it is good or not.Well, I woke up 5:45 this morning becasue I had 3 classes today from 8 a.m. School is not so far from my house but the thing is, if i take the bus, i have to wake up early...Thats one thign that I dont like taking bus cuz it is menndokusai!!Every Tue and Thur, I had a presentation class. It is pretty fun and this is one of my favorite class because I can learn how American student have a speech or how they react. I used to take presentation class in Japan but i think it is very different how do we present. Most people say that Japanse people are not good at speak out things such as presentation or speech stuff but after I took thins class, i changed my view. Becasue a lot of studetns took this class because they dont have confiednt by themselves or some people are taking because they dont like talk in front of people so they want to overcome thier weakness. Anyway, this presentaion class devided by 4 speeches. I already done 2 speeches. The first one is "Birthday speech" which we talk about your birthday related with some facts happned on your birthday. The next one is "Quote" which someone said or famous phrase that make your life change, you talk about using this quate and how does it make your life effect? Little by little the speech time is going to be longer. The first one is about 3 mins, and second one is about 4 or 5 mins. The one that I was goign to today was " Informative speech" which we do some reserch for current issue in the world and we inform about it to the audience. This one is about 6 or 7 mins. The bad thing is I was supporse to have a speech today but most of students talked a lot and my turn was last, thats why I couldnt make it. I am goign to do it next Thursday thought. I had never used Power Point before but I tried to use this for this speech this time. I was so much fun to make these slides, it makes speech nicer!!This speech class is consists of 4 parts which are teacher's lectures and students speech and exams and quiz. We also have assignment which is Lab assigment that we have to go to Com Lab to watch someone's speech and to critisize for it or before your speech, you record your self by video camera so you can practice your speech,furthermore you can learn to look back watching this videos. I have never seen my self talking in English. At first, it was little embaressing but now I really like doing this becasue it is relly good for me to check my Enlighs and how I do have a speech.Well, i am still at school now. I was going to do my essay but I didnt feel like doing it, so I started writing my diary. Well, I think I need to go back to finish my essay.....You know what, I hate writing essay!!!ha,ha, I hope to see you guys soon;)Have a good day!!
