It's been 18 days since 2012 started, and sadly i have to keep all of those bittersweet memories of 2011, keep it neatly, in my mind, and in my heart.
So, timid might be the best noun to describe my thoughts now. However, the whirr of my heart still screaming that, i still not really well to speak in front of the class. My voice still baggy, the feeling is so exaggerating till it chokes my throat. But, when it comes to the friendzone, it's really easy for me to share my thoughts, till have a shrill laugh with my friends.
It was happened last semester in my American Government class, to be exact, during the full session. My bill is passed by the rules committee, and have to present in front of almost 100 people. Darn, how could I present this in front almost 75% of opinious people. I felt so anxious. Chokes again my throat. And i was doing not really good, yet people still admitting that my speech was straight to the problem nowadays. Pfiuuh. Alhamdulillah
Frankly, I have no problem with talking in front of crowds. I can do improvizations of my speeches, manifoldly. I would like to say that, too much opening social networking could inhibit me to expand my vocabulary. Although, i have English Class which is really helping me with the Legit Vocabulary. So, it's not really a futile for taking this class though.
What i achieved till these days is my writing comprehension. I want to fix all my grammatical errors and inhance my vocabulary, instead of using regular vocabularies. The next step is how to speak with those legit vocabularies without mumbling and contemplation. Sometimes i want to vanquish the fear of talking in front of opinious people. I was so sucked in Socratic Seminar *) till i just asked one dumb question which was out of the topic. That's my goal for this semester.
Deducely, I believe this is not going to be a wasteful of time, by posting several English Writing post in my blog, although still classified as Social Networking, but, hey, what is wrong with writing though ? This year going to be perpetual, i promise.
