ArticulationI suddenly had this little thought of mine. It has always been my dream to become a good emcee, but I have always left out a very important thing.
And the thing that has always been neglected by me was my articulation, meaning to say the way I speak.
All the talk about being a good emcee starts with having good articulation. If one cannot even articulate themselves well, how would they be able to bring their idea across to the crowds or audiences.
Sometimes, people think that being a good emcee means to have good english pronounciation and having good english pronounciation means to slang when speaking.
In my point of view, I seriously do not encourage the idea slanging purposely when you do not speak that way in the first place.
Firstly, it makes the audiences feel very when strangled having to listen to the unnatural way that you speak when you try to slang.
Furthermore, you yourself will feel very uncomfortable when speaking because that is not your natural way of speaking.
Therefore, I feel that the best way to make the audiences and you yourself comfortable is to just be yourself !
Being natural with yourself will definitely make your audiences feel more relaxed and it can also raise your level of confidence as you do not have to worry about the next word that you have to slang to show that you have good english pronounciation.
Hence, before I really start hot on my heels after the dream of being a emcee, the first thing I would like to do is to improve the way I articulate.
So if you guys have any suggestions for me, feel free to tag me at my tagboard! :)

Recently, I got this very interesting idea by dominic. Asking people to talk about ourselves. I think this is very interesting and it helps us gain more self-awareness about how we present ourselves to the people around us.
The thing goes like this, below here is a photo of myself.
Please upload this photo of mine to your blog post and talk about:
-Your first impression of me
-How I look
-My personality
-My good points
-My bad points
Most important thing is to link me after that so that I know you written about me and tag others to talk about me too !! :D
Thanks alot people and special thanks to dominic for inspiring me with such a great idea. I will do the same for you in my blog post tml^-^
