🛋️ 👨🏿🌾none of me allllllllllllllllll of HIM ☝🏻👆🏻amen no it's you all no stop you GONE make stoooooooop stop stop what you're not going to do is having me think 💬 it's me
I don't have any words to thank you. I really really appreciate you for doing that. I have a great anxiety, my hands shake seeing a lot of people that's why my teachers keep saying me to do speeches. Thank you for this video, I can anytime practise with that😭
How did it go?? I'm also reciting some poetry this Thursday, but for my astronomy class. :)) I'm really glad I found this video for the same reason as you.🥹❤
@@bubblingbrook2132 it went fine, thanks! I stumbled a bit on a verse, but I didn't let that ruin the moment and everything else went smoothly. People were really sweet afterwards, I didn't expect such a big applause I didn't know what to do and bowed twice lol hahaha ohhh poetry and astronomy, two really cool things I adore!! You'll do great!! just take a few deep breaths, drink a bit of water and try to go slow even if your mind tries to rush up and finish :) break a leg!
@@etherealgirl394 awww I'm so happy to hear it went well! Haha yeah, once I had a similar experience where people were applauding for me for a while at a talent show, and I also kinda bowed a few times then ended up doing the dab cuz I was nervous and didn't know what else to do 🤦♀💀💀 Oh, wow, you love astronomy, too?? That's so cool!! I've also wanted to be more involved in theater growing up, but I was always too busy with school. 🥲Aww thanks so much for your words of encouragement!! I really appreciate it 🥹🫶 I am kinda nervous cuz the poem is about a guy who's basically like the one that got away for me, so I don't know how people will react. But I try to remind myself that I probably won't see my classmates after the semester ends anyway so... 🤷♀loll
@@bubblingbrook2132 OMG you are hilarious! Big fan of the dab moment hahaha don't worry, poetry is very personal so if they don't vibe with it, you will and that's all that matters. But I think they will, almost everyone has had a love story that went wrong or sad, you seem pretty relatable too :)
@@etherealgirl394 Hahahaha glad the story made you smile!! 😂🤭Aww thanks for that 🥺Your words really helped a lot - it toned down some of my nervousness 🫶
Okay.....this was interesting. I've never seen anything like this. So, is the exercise then to prepare a speech of some kind, and give it to this virtual audience?? If so, that is a very interesting idea. My god. Does this work?? I'm going to check out the rest of your channel. Thank you.
I have a presentation tomorrow, and simply looking at this massive audience on RU-vid makes me nervous as I'm practicing my speech in my room. Damn I hate public speaking.
Lol even with a fake audience I still messed up and forgot my lines. I have to look at the floor cos for some reason looking down helps me remember better even if I look a the ceiling I forget
You and me both. But there is hope. Yea, I hadn't done a public speech for 25 years until yesterday and I can give you a few tips that will ensure that you will get through this piece of hell that you have been given. First of all, It should give you comfort to know that if this is a wedding speech for you, then I can assure you that nobody has come to this wedding to hear your speech, half of them are there simply because of their spouse who has dragged them out to watch a friend get married, and the rest are there for the free booze or fun times or dancing. Besides that, in all of my 45 years of going to weddings, I remember not one speech. So what I'm trying to say is that, for everybody else, your speech is just a bit of filler commercial and you should not worry about making mistakes. The only persons that will remember it are the people that you address in to. . . . . well, not even them either. Maybe watch "The pale blue dot by Carl Sagan video too. With that being said, my secret weapon is memorizing the hell out of the speech, especially the first 1 minute. In order to start this speech, I will only write the first 4-5 words of the speech on my hand just to trigger the start of the speech. After that, because of memorizing and running through it about 30-50x in front of this crowd, the other 5-10 minutes of the speech just flows from there. Sure, this is an extreme example of stage fright and there is probably only 5% of the people here that suffer from this level. I actually divided my speech up into 3 parts, the first minute was thanking people and that sort of thing, which was memorized verbatim, then telling a story on the second part, with the final section offering a toast. The story portion is the only portion that I allowed for a variety of mixed ways of saying the same sort of thing with all of the normal random words that you actually do toss into a regular conversation, so it can end up being half as long or twice as long because of this, which is fine with a more spontaneous feel to it. Talk at a moderate speed because some venues are not great for sound clarity. Always watch how far the previous person had the microphone away from their lips and do likewise. Stand up straight, wear a nice suit, practice with a fake microphone, maybe hold your cell phone in the other hand with the speech written on it, but don't actually read it. Even practice walking up and putting your drink down and picking up a microphone. Try to smile once in a while. Video yourself a couple times to see if that looks good. And for a real test of skill, try to do your speech in front of a video that is about holding eye contact, this is super, super hard because these videos usually have a person just staring intently at you for 5 minutes. If you can pull that one off, you are a rock star and even a crying kid will not have you forgetting your lines.
This is positively brilliant. With the exception of the uproarious applause. To make the more realistic and effective, I think a more tepid round of applause is in order. Because very few of us have the kind of notoriety and professional respect that would garner that kind of applause Now all I need is a 400 LCD tv😂😂😂😂
