Reflection Hi my name is Sean Hikaru Hayakawa Perez and this is a short introduction video and the first time making one. After watching my introduction video, I feel like I wasn't making as much eye contact to the camera lens like I was suppose to do. I think I should have prepared more sooner than the day that is due which would change cause I really want to improve my public speaking. I know I kept looking around and tend to laugh a little but hopefully the more I practice the more I improve.

GOALS
My goals in this class is to be able to communicate clearly and show/keep a good posture while presenting any future speeches that will have to be done. Upon the completion of this speech class, I hope to improve on my public speaking because I really think it would be important in any upcoming events or special occasions where I have step up and present in front of a class or basically in front of a audience. I really hope the more I practice speech, the more I can feel confident in myself to get the audience attention and have them to be interested in my speech.
How to make a world a better place. (Favorite Speech)
Every day, and I mean every day, the world slowly gets a better chance of surviving an epidemic. But every day, the world slightly perishes and begins to crumble. And I don’t mean literally crumble. Maybe just a little. But anyways the world starts becoming a bad place to live in. Whether it’s from pollution or foreign matter. But I will be talking about pollution mostly. People pollute every second of the day. I’m serious. And the bad thing is that there may not be a way to stop these people from polluting. Governments and agencies have tried numerous times to encourage people to stop even if it’s slowly at a time. And now they try to help by coming out with electric cars and allow recycling more often. Yet is it enough? It may be but then again it’s most likely not. You see, the sun lets light in so we can see and have nutrients. And there is the little thing called the ozone layer that keeps a little of the sun in but not a lot of it. With the ozone layer, the heat and light from the sun bounces back towards itself. Like I said, the ozone layer only allows a little of the sun in. yet, by pollution the ozone layer becomes thinner and thinner allowing more sun to come in and fry us. I’ll break it down for you. Let’s take smoke from refineries or a car. The smoke goes in to the air and mixes with the clouds. But some of that smokes breaks through and collides with the ozone layer causing erosion which makes the ozone layer thinner, allowing more sun in. Pollution is bad! But that’s not the only kind of pollution. Let’s talk about out lovely streets and plants. Although it’s hard to call them lovely. Take an ordinary beautiful garden maintained by caring people. Example: Erik waters his garden and clears it of weeds regularly. Everyone who walks by tells Erik that his garden is beautiful with a capital B. yet what Erik and all the others don’t know is that under that beautiful garden lies deadly fumes that slowly kill the flowers. A year later, Erik finds his garden unexpectedly dying. What Erik also doesn’t know is that the house that was built on his wonderful grass has eroded over the past few years allowing the deadly material of the house to seep underground and spread throughout the yard. Therefore, killing his beautiful garden. The End. Or is it? Every day we pass by trash on the streets and don’t bother to pick it up. Some don’t because they are lazy and some others don’t because they are embarrassed. Id sometimes be counted as the one with embarrassment. But not always. Anyways, what I’m proposing is that instead of ignoring all those boring environmental commercials on television, we should actually listen to them and join hands to erase all the pollution. After that problem is wiped out, we’d have a better place to live in and live a longer, healthier life. But first if we must start little, then it’s best if we start with the trash we see on our own streets. Recycle more often too. It really helps get waste off the street. Join community service programs that are available in the CNMI or just talk to your counselor or environmental adviser. In my own opinion, I know you will be the best. Thank you. |
Semester Overall Ending
At the beginning of the semester, I have felt overwhlemed with the assignements given to us and the task that has been also given to us and how we had to enhance our speaking skills. It was definitely tough at first and learning different techniques and the pronunctiation of the alphabets. Time to time and after so many speeches, many of us has learned how to gain confidence when it comes to speaking to a crowd. It was such a nice class and cause of that it made me so comfortable and gain enough confidence for me to my speech in front of them. Such good support from my classmates and that I've felt like I am becoming much bettter with my speaking skills till today. But I will have a long way to go to improve some more. Thank you. |
