Finally, the last semester for Public Speaking. I can't believe this is the last semester that we will finally meet face to face and yet it's our last time together learning Public Speaking. As usual, madam greets us with a warm welcoming during the first class. She explain us our syllabus and telling us what we will be doing this semester. Before the class start, we have to choose new chairman and other position to leads the class. I have assist madam during the selection by providing google form and google sheet for them to nominate themselves. Luckily, with the help of Pang Zi Xian, everything went smoothly and we have chosen all new AJK for this semester. After the nomination, we have to decide whether to have a programme conducted by us physically like inviting speakers for a forum. We also have to brainstorming class activities for physical class, so we decided to go to GoCart and experiencing UUM fun facilities. 28 May 2022 we will be going to GoCart and 21 May 2022 will be having a movie time. That's all for today's class.

As usual after we scanning attendance, madam proceed the lecture by teaching us persuasive speech. We have been given 2 videos and 2 articles. From what I understand, persuasive speaking is attempting to get someone to change an attitude, belief value or behavior, the purpose of persuasive speech is to convince and to actuate a response. The speech can be in form of thesis statement, specific or general purpose. After deciding the title, we could start preparing introduction which is a place where you gather attention from people on your topic. The body should consist of problem and solution, we need the audience to have a visualization of our speech. Lastly, the conclusion should be summarizing all the point that we have explain and try to relate back to the audience regarding your content.
That is all from today's class, madam required us to start drafting our speech and list all of our topics on the google sheet given.

This is the first day we are having online class at the campus, Madam have share us some things of being in the campus such as interact with roommates and giving us moral support. I am really grateful and excited for this journey.
The next activity is we were divided into breakout rooms based on our own groups for the discussion and reading of an article for "Types of Persuasive Speech". We required to discuss the main argument put forward by the author and determine who would be the presenter on behalf of the group. We have learned that persuasive speech can be classified into three types which is propositions of fact, proposition of value and proposition of policy. After several groups giving their presentation, madam provided us substantial feedback via chat box for each and every group. Lastly, we back to the breakout room again in discussing and analyze the Joko Widodo's speech. We required to analyze the speech technique and strategies used, the audience, time, place, motives, and signals, as well as the speech's impact on the audience. Joko Widodo's speech is such an inspiring and persuasive speech.

The class start as usual by scanning attendance, we continue our class by discussing about Joko Widodo's speech where each group required to have one representative in presenting the points that they have analyzed. Every group had a different take on the speech and provided valuable insights from their own discussions. Madam was very satisfied by the presentation and she have commended all of us for being so meticulous in analyzing speech.
Beside, after the presentation of Joko Widodo speech, each group required to translate a Hari Raya song into an English version and sing it in an English version. Our group have chosen Suasana Hari Raya song and we do the translation together using the google doc provided by Shuva. It was very shy when we have to sing it out but it was fun and exiting memory.

The class starts with an exciting news where we required to brainstorm our ideas on activities to be performed in public speaking classes. Every group have chosen a movie and the task was to persuade the pthers to watch the selected movie. Our group have chosen a Korean Drama instead of a movie which named as "Sky Castle" where Natasha will be representing the group in presenting the drama. Everyone doing a great job in presenting their movies. This session allowed me to witness the method of analysing a movie and, most importantly, the persuasive techniques. It is important to learn how to persuade well because we can have a positive effect on society.

An exciting yet sad day as today is the second last public speaking class. Time has pass so fast and I almost have completed by 4 semester curriculum subject. The class starting with continuing the previous class session which persuading classmates to watch particular movie. Madam was very satisfied with all the group presented. The lesson that I have learnt is everyone have different interest, some people don't like horror genre movie even though we have persuade them to watch, we could not force anyone to like what we like.
After the discussion of the movie, the class continuing with the last session by organizing and event by our own. Madam have passed the floor to the President of our class and let him in charge of the flow . Everyone is actively participating the session and their is many consideration and action have been taken. Each group will be given a job scope and my group end up being the AJK Activity. Every group was also satisfied with the results and ready to assist the event flow. Throughout the discussion, I was amazed with the President's leadership and calmness while facing doubts or questions from others. This is also another personality that we should always learn and apply in our workplace in the near future.

The sunrises as usual and all of us are getting prepared to go to the farewell event at Dewan TM. After the one hour of discussion at previous class, our own group have conducted a meeting along with group 9 in organizing the activity via google meet. As we have planned, our group which is group 2 will be handling first impression while group 9 will be handling musical chair. The ware wolf game will be handle by both group 2 and group 9 together with a different type of storyline.
During the event day, everyone will be having meals first before they proceed to game session. Every group have bought various type of foods such as pisang goreng, fruits, lekor and many more. However, the spaghettis has been brought late due to some unavoidable circumstances. Due to the time concern, we have decided to have the spaghettis at the end of the session to resolve this problem.
After a fruitful and delicious lunch, the game session have started which is first impression which in charge by our group. Shuva have given a clear instruction by asking everyone prepare a paper and a pen for the session. Everyone is having fun writing their first impression toward their friend! Following the next game which is warewolf, CK became the moderator , Athirah became the helper and I became the technical team in handling the music. The game runs smoothly and everyone keep blaming the wrong person is the warewolf, it is funny while watching them played. After playing the warewolf, group 9 starting the musical chair game and it is quite challenging for me cause I am not focus on the chair but I focus on the music. The music makes me want to dance along! Unfortunately, I lose at the first round but still I am happy because the losing team playing another round just for fun!
The game session has come to the end and our president , Mr Fazril is giving a farewell speech to everyone. Mr Fazril standing at the stage with the nervousness that he have, but he stand confidently giving his speech with the right intonation. The opening of the speech starting with a greeting and a funny introduction have attracted me in listening to his speech. I could feel the emotions from the speech that he deliver, he appreciate each and every persons and he representing in giving appreciation to Madam. The speech that given by Mr Fazril especially the story that he convey is very inspiring, as an introvert choosing public speaking classes may not be easy but we have learnt to be confident and important technique in speaking. I sincerely respect Mr Fazril along with his profesionnalism and leadership skills.
Madam gave her final speech where she wishes us all best in the future and would always do well for everything. The final speech from madam makes me learnt that always appreciate the knowledge that we gained along the journey of public speaking, the skill and technique will be used for the future regardless of what career we would be in.
Lastly, I would like to express my sincere gratituted to all my beloved public speaking classmates. Although this is the first time we meet physically but this may not be the last time we meet. Our university life still a long journey to go, hopefully we could meet again and gather together. I may be our last class, but the ending is very wonderful and every moemnt that we been together will be kept in a photograph. Ed Shareen once sing "we keep this love in a photograph, we made these memories for ourselves". I may not leave a strong impression during the last class, but if anyone saw me please shout my name out "MICHELLE!", I would be happily greeting you guys with a warm smile.
