Most of the time celebration and parties was one of my leisure and my way to relieve my stress. Even if I usually went on wine bar every weekend still whenever friends and sibling have their parties I am always present. There are so many problem and trials that I always encounter on my life but even if there are so many problems still I wanted to balance my life and find some enjoyable things. Parties was one of my excuses to busy life, also every party I always make sure to bring some wine on the party and for the birthday celebrate. Before I usually buy clothes for men celebrate and perfume to women celebrant. But when I had discover the wine bags online and see the products for myself, I then make it my signature gift. The kind of gift that I always give to the celebrate, since then my brother and my sister can’t wait for their birthday to come and wish for their wine bag to come. Even if they can buy it for themselves, still they wanted the gift to be from their eldest brother who was still a bachelor. Even if I am alone on my life I know that it was just temporary.

Distinctive Features of Public Speaking

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Conversations represent a free-flowing, spontaneous, fluid process of communication. The conversationalist is both a speaker and a listener in an ongoing interaction. The conversation itself is a series of fragments that may or may not fit together well. In contrast, public speaking defines the roles of speaker and listener more clearly. Speeches may seem fresh and spontaneous, but good speeches are the product of carefully considered research, audience analysis, design, wording, and practice. In public speaking, the medium of communication can affect the message, as in the case of speeches presented on radio or television. Finally, the environment in which communication occurs can change dramatically.

Speaker and Listener Roles Are Clearly Defined. In conversation, it is often hard to tell who the speaker is and who the listener is. In public speaking, however, there is seldom doubt as to who the speaker is and who the listeners are. Moreover, public speaking spotlights the role of the speaker. Whether speakers can take advantage of this prominence depends on their ability to reward listeners with interesting and useful messages. As Aristotle pointed out more than two thousand years ago, our impressions of speakers themselves affect how we respond to what they say. We are far more inclined, he observed, to react favorably when we think speakers are competent in their subject matter and when we trust them. These ancient qualities of competence and integrity form the basis of the modern term credibility. Aristotle also noted that audiences respond more favorably when speakers seem likable— when they seem to be people of good will. Modern researchers have uncovered still another important speaker characteristic, forcefulness (or dynamism). Some speakers strike us as vital, action-oriented people.

Personal Knowledge and Experience

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Personal knowledge and experience add credibility, authenticity, and interest to a speech. Being able to describe your feelings about a problem will gain and hold the audience’s attention and may make them more receptive. You may not be an acknowledged authority on a subject, but personal stories suggest that you have a special kind of intimate knowledge of it. They make it easier for an audience to identify with you and the topic.
If you lack direct experience with a topic, you can always try to arrange some. Suppose you are planning a speech on how local television stations prepare newscasts. You have gathered information from books and periodicals, but it seems rather dry and lifeless. Call a local television station and ask the news director if it would be possible for you to spend an afternoon in the newsroom of the station so that you can get a feel for what goes on during that hectic time right before a broadcast. Take in the noise, the action, and the excitement that occur before and during a show. All of this can help en
rich your speech. You might also try to schedule an interview with the news director while you are at the station.
As valuable as it is, experience is rarely sufficient to provide all the information, facts and figures, and testimony that you will need for your speech. Your personal knowledge may be limited, the sources from which you learned may have been biased, or your experiences may not have been typical. Even people who are acknowledged authorities on a subject look to other experts to give credence to their messages. Use personal knowledge and experience as a starting point and expand it through research. Prepare a personal knowledge and experience summary. Include on your summary sheet what you know (or think you know) about the topic, where or how you learned it, and what additional information you might need to find. Also jot down any examples or narratives based on your experience so that you can remember them as you put your speech together. Use your summary sheet to give direction to your research.
