Empowerment through Voice
I was so happy to read that in some of your blog postings last week you talked a lot about having a voice in room 204. You all have a voice; how and when you choose to use it will always be up to you. It is true, louder voices tend to drown out some of the softer ones, that is the nature of human existence; however, those who choose to speak, no matter how loud the volume, can always be heard through the power of words. So, in thinking about voice and power and the power of words, talk a bit about your own. How many voices do you have? Do you constantly capture yourself in one single voice, tone, way of being? Or do you have different voices for different purposes and circumstances? Does using a different voice make you a different person?Don't limit yourself by taking the notion of your "voice" literally.

I think that I have a lot of voices that speak up at different times. I have one voice that speaks up normally. This voice speaks when I don't feel mad sad or any other emotion. It speaks when there's nothing wrong. This is like my primary voice. Another voice that i have is my "excitement voice." This voice comes out when I'm happy or excited about something. Or I would use this loud voice to drown out other things around me. One more voice that I have is my mad voice. This voice tends to get loud and is strong in everything it says. No matter what it says, everybody is always listening. Nobody can ignore it. My voices are a very important part of what people think of me when I feel that emotion. These voices are my personality. The voices are me and I choose to use them the way I want to.
I love this topic because I relate quite well. Well me myself i have one voice. I'm loud and always will continue to be no matter what. I'm going to be honest i'm loud because i love attention but also in all truth im loud because i dont know how to be quiet. By saying that i mean i like to be center of attention (not always and never drown my friends out)but im loud for that reason. I like singing, dancing, im all around an outgoing person. A quiet person to me is someone who is less likely wanting attention and someone that boring and deosnt like having much fun. I'm the total oppsite and i like being loud because its me and im not a fake person so why should i be quiet just because someone wants to bve. the o0nly thing i can say is for everyone to take me as i am because im loud and i love it. Thats who i am and its not ever gonna change. love you bunji!!!!
Voices?!!! well i can honestly say that i only have 2 voices.one voive where im calm and i use this voice when im angry. Then i have the voice where i use in front of my friend and family SOMETIMES.Sometimes when i talk many people hear my voice no matter the tone i talk in. I dont limit myself to just one voice. Even though i try just one voice so that its my normal way of speaking to people individually. When using a diffrent voice i dont think that it makes you a diffrent person it just shows a different side of a person. I know that some people dont just limit themselves to just one voice weather they relize it or not. My calm voice i use alot more than the louder voice. Which in most cases i would use a louder voice when iam excited with my friends and family. I can honestly say that if you really want your voice heard one way or another you will have it heard. Everyone really has an opportunity to have a voice heard weather its to an individual or a group of people.Its just the way you go about having that voice stand out.
VOICES CAN COME IN DIFFERENT SHAPES,WAYS OR SIZES.HAVING A VOICE COULD BE DANCING,SINGING WRITING AND OTHER WAYS.YOUR VIOCE IS HOW YOU LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT YOU FEEL.THERES PEOPLE THAT MIGHT BE TIMID AND NOT LIKE TO STAND OUT AND MAY TALK VERY LITTLE OR MAYBE NOT AT ALL USUALLY THESE PEOPLE ARE VERY GOOD AT EXPRESSING THEMSELVES ON PAPER LIKE IN PEOMS,STORIES ETC..THEN THERES THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE TO MUCH VOICE I DONT MEAN THE ONE THAT STAND OUT I MEAN THE ONES THAT TALK LOUDLY ABOUT COMPLETE NOTHING OF RELAVANCE..THEN THERE THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE LOUD VOICE AND THEY ACTUALLY MAKE POINTS AT WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.
I GUESS YOU CAN SAY I FALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TWO ON SOME TOPICS I WOULD RATHER EXPLAIN HOW I FEEL ABOUT IT ON PAPER AND THEN THERES SOME THINGS THAT THE NORMAL PERSON WOULD BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN ON PAPER I CANT BUT I NEED TO SPEAK TO EXPLAIN WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.VOICE CAN BE EXPRESSED IN DIFFERENT WAYS AND BASICALLY IS THE INNER YOU COMING OUT IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
I think people that who are more soft spoken are heard as often, because people can hear them that well so they just tone them out completely instead of listening. I mostly use my normal voice witch is loud most of the time. Since i am Italian that just comes naturally to me. Then when i mad i don't even talk i just make faces. So i guess that i have not that many voices. Then of courses i have my football and wrestling voice were ii just yell at every body. Using a different voice doesn't change you but talking in different dialect does change who you are. Itte i'm out peace bunje
hmm, having a voice. that's a wonderful thing to be capeable of saying you have. the power to speak out amoungst the rest. I, my self, have a very soft voice. I keep my thoughts to my self, feelings, and emotions, for the most part. I always feel as if I DO speak my words, I'll get shot down, so I figure why speak at all. This is for the most part, thoguh, on the other hands, sometimes I do speak out. I have different voices for different cricumstances life throws at me. I personally feel that when you use your voice it DOES make you a different person, when you're someone like me that is. When you speak out all the time, and voice your opinion always, having that voice doesn't particularly change you, because that's the kind've person you are.
Voices, just like volume there are many of them. Which leads me to believe that's why there is such a vareity of people and same with voices. When you meantioned about how many voices do you have, well I only have one voice. It might change tones but it won't change my voice.It's just the same as if you turned a song on but turned the volume up or loud, it doesn't change the song it just makes it more louder. No, I don't that that I've captured myself in on single tone of speech because to me that's just plain boring, and isn't fun to talk to someone that is in one tone all day long. I would say that I have differnt tones of voices for differnt circumstances but not different voices all together. I wouldn't say having a different voice or tone of voice would make you a different person but maybe in a sense would make you realize other people's ideas and opions and also in some cases make someone more mature in some circumstances. Whether you have a big voice or a small voice and voice matters no matter how big or small.
In room 204 ms Bunjes class everyone does have a voice, weather your like me and you barely talk at all only when your called on or you one of the outspoken one and always voice your opinion. Ms Bunje all of your students know that they can come to you with any problem and you will be there with open arm to help us any way you can, and you will listen to every word that comes out of out mouths. You really do care unlike some teachers, and you try to make the learning as fun as possible. Your not like most teachers, you like to do thinks your own way and you like to make things fun. I like that a lot about you and I think it makes the students learn more and comprehend it better. I remember when we first came into your class and told us how were going to have to do an occasional paper I though that was the worst thing in the world! Because I hated to get in front of the class. But now I can honestly say it doesn’t bother me as much as it use to. I cant wait to do the bunje bar either, and the blogs are not that bad I really like the topics you come up for us to write about :). the only class I am really sad about leaving this year is yours . You always make the class so much fun and I never know what to expect. I can honestly say that every single student that gets you next year is very luck and I hope you know that, you are an awesome teacher, Really one of a kind :)
I have one voice for everything. I do capture my self in one single voice because I only need one voice to get my point accrose. Using a different voice dose not make you a different person because you are the same person with a different voice.
A voice what is the true meaning? Is it words that tend to fall out of your moving lips? Or is it how you use the words and how you say them? To me having a voice is having freedom and knowing how or when to say things. Everyone has the freedom to speal it is up to you to make sure your audience hears and understands what your trying to say! I tend to have more words in life's expectations not in school. To me a voice is not learned from teachers or from school it is learned from experiences and those I tend to have a lot. I've been through a lot in life and from that I've learneed how to speak and when to speak. In moments people talk out of anger and at the moment they don't know what they are saying. That's when you can't speak you have to say things in a calm matter and speak the truth. How to speak? That tends to be the questions of a lot of young kids and adults. Lets think of it as a game. If you were playing twister you need to know "HOW" to move around so you won't fall and won't loose. Well in speech or voice you need to know how to speak so a person would understand your concept and not misunderstand your wordings making them upset.
It's good to have a voice. I have alot of voices Some good some bad. I just need to know when to use certian voices in the right times.
One of my voices is my singing voice. That is not used much at all but if i'm board it will come out. With all the voices i have i only use my real one. The real voice is the one people know you by maybe sometimes by another voice but most of the time but that one voice. Having diffrent voices dose not make me a diffrent person at all. It just makes me sound a little diffrent.
Wow! While reading the question i really did began to think about what kind of voice I really had when i speoke. Finally anlaizing myself I realize that sometimes when i speak it brings out an ugly side of me because I try to talk a certain way that i think is cool but it just only shows an ugly side of me. For example there are times whwen i just cuss and don't stop i know you may be thinkn well why do i do that but at the time i'm either mad and can't control it or just don't care and just feel like cussing. I realize when i do that it akes me look very disrespectfuland not a young and pretty person that iam. There are also times when I speak very polite and sophisticated and well manner it makes me look like a nice polite girl and knows how to act and tal like a young lady. These are not just my only voices i mean i have lots more that are also good and bad and can make people think i'm something that i'm not. In room 204 i feel i do not have to change the way i talk at all to me it seems when i step in the classroom everything sems to be all right and easy for me to express the way that i feel. Talking to Mrs. Bunje is like talking to a big sister because i want have to thin twice about saying anything to her because i know she will respond either with something i want to hear or either something i just didn't want to hear at all. I know with any promblems that any of Mrs. Bunje stundents have wheter it be with techers, stundents, principles , or lve ones she always has our back and knows how to give us good advice to go about the promblem. Others may say that its hard going to an adult but to go to her is like going to a best friend that willalways hold a secret and will stamd by you one hundred percent. I think that expressing yourself and opening your mouth the proper way will have many people willing to listen to what you say no matter what the cause just because of the way you speak. I understand that their are times when we don't speak the way we are suppose to byut when we speak those types of ways it gives us a bad look or name that we don't even deserve just becaus we want to be cool. Having this question asked to me really made me realize that i need to watch what I say so i want be mis judge by abyone just becaus eof the way i talk. I have also realize that in room 204 there is no holding back on anything and how you feel you just got to open your mouth and expalin how you feel no matter how hard it is because Mrs. Bunje got your back!
I think i have 2 voices.Sometimes I can be very loud and other times I am quite.When I am around alot of people I really don`t like to voice my opion because I rather not have somebody listen to me.Most of the time most people don`t.I think that my other voice comes out when I am mad at something,such as people making me bad.But when I am in class I am quite.Also when I am in class the other reason why I am quite os I dont like answering questions because I think that the answer is going to be wrong.I know other kids may get the answer wrong but I still want to be right.My voice is very loud eventhough I may not talk alot in class.
like most other people... i think that i have two voices, and they both have their pluses and minuses. sometimes i can be loud- and speak my mind. other times i can be quiet and reserved. i am usually quiet and reserved when it comes to situations that i feel uncomfortable in, or when i am 'the new girl'. i can get really shy sometimes. i am almost always loud and fun with my friends... unless i don't feel good or i am having a bad day. About 3/4ths of the people in school think i am just shy, a snob, or just plain mute. others look at me as incredibly laid back and mellow. then my close friends see me as crazy and fun. My friends bring out the true side in me, and i love that about them. But i always try and use the right voice at the right time. I guess my voice depends how comfortable i feel with the (group of) people i am with. Sometimes if I feel that my voice, and my opinion really matters- I will talk more. I will speak my mind, and how I am feeling more. But that doesn't happen a lot. I almost always speak my mind when i am serious, or have been accused of something incredibly wrong. but then again, who wouldn't? i guess it just depends on what kind of day that I am having.
Well i useually have two voices for when im at home and for when im out with friends and being social. Not that much of a difference in voice but its a sort of change. Like your personality is different when your with alot of people.sometimes people get mixed up and forget what voice theyre sopose to use in that situation and it ends up being really embarassing. Well the truh is that people always use another voice in theyre life at some point in their life even know that they might not even know that they have it.
well i usually have two voices,most of the time im somewhat quiet and i hate to say what i feel because most of the time im not heard.than on the other hand if its something i want everyone to know i tend to speak up more.i do have different voices for different purposes because we cant talk to everyone the same because some might not understand or not even listen.using a different voice would make you a different person think of freedom writers or people that have something to say and they say it because they want to make a difference in the world unlike those that remain quiet.
my voice is umm complicated i guess. i dont ever try to sound differently on purpose but i know sometimes i do. i guess i just seem different on the way i am feeling like most people. when i am tired i just sound sleepy and unethusiastic and you can tell when i am tired because i usually always act enthusiastic or sarcastic. when i want my voice to be heard i let it be heard. its true i dont like talking in front of large groups of people but my voice never changes just because i have to talk in front of a group. though when i am mad or when i am talking to someone i dont like i may have more of a mean tone and i threaten using details. i dont think using a different voice makes you different person. your always the same person. though using a different voice on purpose to sound better or cooler is just a voice for the mask that the person wears.my voice is never one for a mask because i am always me and never try to act or sound differently to any body.
Words are a very strong sense of communication. I believe that no matter what type of voice an individual has, they always have an opportunity to get their point accross or become heard. I, myself, have a variety of voices but I also know which ones to use at which times. Situations when i feel strongly about something and feel as if my statement will be beneficial then my voice is firm, loud, and strong. I will take many actions in order to express myself and make sure that I stand out and my actions describe the way that i feel towards a certain situation. Most of the tmie however, I have a quiet voice and keep to myself unless necessary. I don't usually go above and beyond to capture the attention of other's in order to be heard unless I feel very opinionated towards the issue. I don't think that having these varied voices makes me a different person each time I use one. But i do think that that way my voices are used defines the person that I am. Sometimes I enjoy keeping my feelings and opinions to myself, while others I tend to fight for and express in order to make a difference. This only displays my type of personality and the way i fight for myself and for what i believe.
i think that i have tons of voices. Each of them spoken at different times. I guess its based on my emotion at the time. MOst of the time, i let my voice be heard because i think its important for people to hear you and your ideals. Sometimes my opinion could be mean but i am being honest. I also am loud but that could be a good thing because everyone can hear you but the other side to being loud is that people could be pissed off or really hate your opinion or even who you are. I dont really care about what others say. Like today this kid said i was annoying because i got my point across and im not going to let this kid ruin my day, it was morning and he was grumpy but i was completely oppodite and dont care about his opions. I also have a quiet voice, sometimes i overthink about the things i am going to say and then ill be very quiet and wont give my opinions out because sometimes my opinion could be hurtful or i could too affraid of what people are going to say about what i have to say. I know im a confusing person, but i guess your voice is based on your emotions and life experiences.
Yes, I do have alot of tone of voices or opinions but it all depeneds on the topic i'm talking about. One of my voice is loud and quiet because it could good to have a loud voice. It's better so when i'm talking to someone they could hear me when i talk. Most times my friends say i'm to loud and i could be annoying. Second voice i have is being quiet because i know i could be annoying at times it's just i don't like to talk and soicalize with people. I'm a very shy person and thats one thing that people just don't know about me. When i tell people that i'm shy they don't believe because i be lost in thought. My third voice that i have is being groffy because I'm a person who love to make people laugh and just have fun all the time. That's the best part of my voice execpt when it comes to giving adicve to my friends. my friends normally come and talk to me when they have problems and i will try to help them the best way i can. but if i can't i try to give the best adicve from my experiences so they could learn from my mistakes.
when it comes to the tone of my voice im usually louder. I think i just have one voice but i use it in different ways. I use it to speak out, to voice opinions, to help, to reasuure, sometimes to hurt =(, and just to make a difference. But i think in each of those is the same voice...MINE. =)The way i use my voice obviosuly changes in the situations i find myself in. I hardly ever use just one part of the voice i have ...i think it varies with the reasons of why i happen to be using my voice in that situation. I think you are just one preson and using your voice in different ways just helps you express who you really are and how you feel about a topic or sinario.
I have never really been a quiet person and i always find a way to voice how I feel it is a part of who i am. But with voicing my opinion i always try to look at both sides of the situation and say what i have to say in a respectful mannor.And if your voice just doesnt happen to be loud enough take a stand sometimes actions speak louder then words. =)
Different situations call for different "tones". I'd say I have two or three different voices. One is the normal conversation voice, the casual talk. The other is the voice when trying to make a point. When i am making a point my voice definitely changes, the voice then becomes an above normal tone. I’ll change my voice anyway to prove my point. I think if you have to stand up for yourself in a situation, the change in voice is necessary. It’s hard to gain respect these days and have people understand if you use the same monotone voice all the time. I'm not saying that you a drastic change, just enough to get taken seriously. Having multiple voices can change you; it can separate you from being a leader than a follower. But having more than one can show a different side of you, not exactly "change" you.
They way people express themselves whether it’s through words or actions say a lot about them. If you speak a lot and make your voice heard your probably known more then people who don’t use their voices as much. Those people would probably be known as the quiet type and people don’t know much about them. I guess you can say I was one of those people because I didn’t use my voice as much as I would have wanted to in English class. But to me that’s just one of my voices. That voice is the more quite type that only puts her opinion out when asked to and likes to listen to what other people have to say. My other voice is much louder and doesn’t want to shut up. That voice doesn’t care about others people’s opinions because I’m always going to be “right” either way. I guess you could say the side of me who uses that voice is very stubborn. I usually only use that voice when I’m at home or with my friends or family. I guess I’m afraid to use my real voice in room 204 because I didn’t know how people would react. Most people would know me as a quieter person then who I really am. Since I have that “image” I feel that people would think that I have changed or that I’m fake if I do use it. And I don’t want people to know me like a fake type of person. So in a way I do think that using a different makes you seem like a different person. And I say that you “seem” because that’s not who you really “are”. I think that I do need to speak up more next year if I have a class like this one where our opinions do matter.
its really easy to have a voice in your class ms. bunje and thats what I really like about room 204. the fact that we can just have a huge discussion, whether it was beneficial to life or the latest gossip about something, everyone was able to put their say in it. nobody got bored and slept through your class and that really says something about the teacher also. I'm already an outspoken person as it is and sometimes it feels like I'm restricted to speak my mind in other classes where you CAN have discussions because the lesson plans dont really have room for mine and other students' opinions. but to have the honor of walking into room 204 and having the priviledge of letting my voice not only be heard, but taken into deep consideration, makes me feel good; like I'm appreciated. I have ONE single voice. I speak the same for all kinds of situations. I'm not looking down on the people that have different voices because there's nothing wrong with being universal, but I personally dont see the need to have a different voice for every different situation. I like to have just one, because its the one that people are gonna judge you on the most. when you have two or more, do people really know who you are? but thats my opinion. then again, when people have different voices, it kinda gives off this wide variety of opinions and outlooks on things. I guess it depends on the person to determine whether they're just "fake", open-minded, or stick to one voice like me. you cant force people to have one voice or have more than one. its what fits them the best. whatever makes them comfortable. in room 204, it feels like everything that comes out of my mouth is "beautiful" to you ms.b. I love that feeling <3
I really do believe that everybody has a different things cause if you have a mean sounding voice you cant go up someone who just lost someone and say oh I’m sorry for the loss cause then they mite just start crying more and when you want something from your mom you don’t go up to her and sound sarcastic, well at least I don’t know I have different voices but i always keep the same words cause although my voice may change I always keep the same words cause I don’t being fake and if you say one thing and then be talking about the same thing to another person and say something totally different that’s being fake to me and I think that’s lying and I cant stand liars and I wouldn’t be able to deal with that. I think I talk extremely loud when I don’t even know ill tell you the truth I cant even whisper quietly without someone ending up hearing what im saying but I do try to talk lower when im in the house or someone is sleeping I try to talk lower or I just try not to project my voice. I don’t think having different voices makes you a deceiving person cause you wouldn’t talk and treat your regular boy friends the same way you talk and treat your boyfriend cause then things would be weird when your around both of them, nah mean. and I don’t mean to say that people that do that are fake but you don’t even have to say anything to hurt someone’s feelings you could just give someone "THE" look and I personally I have one of those looks and sometimes I don’t even mean to give them "THE" look but sometimes i think my eyes have a mind of there own and you can ask mrs.Bertchtold I accidentally gave her "THE" look and I didn’t even mean it.
I do believe I have a voice that's heard in room 204. That's one of the reasons I like being in that room so much. In the other class rooms scattered throughout Oakcrest high school, I can't lie, I still have a voice. However, it seems different. In other classes I have to be loud to be heard or no one will listen, that's just the way it goes. It seems as though the loud people get their point across, while the quiet ones mutter whispers when they actually are speaking their "Normal" voice. A certain place and time calls for different voices, obviously. When I say the word voices, I'm not taking it in such literal way. For example, voices could also mean opinions, which apply to all. Everyone has different opinions at different times, and most certainly, everyone will not agree on one single topic. I know when the time calls for a certain voice. When I'm at a party, I'm not in a corner, muttering whispers to the point where no one can hear me, to hear me talk, you won’t even have to leave the room, it seems like I can yell over the speakers. LOL. I can, well when I need to say something, trust me, you will hear me. At other times, for example, a funeral, I would never yell "I'm so sorry for your loss!” That's totally un-called for and unnecessary to the point where it's even embarrassing if one was to speak that loud. Different voice, in my opinion would never make you a different person unless you were totally confused as to what you were saying. If you told someone you loved them and wanted to marry them, and go and say something bad about them and said you'd never marry them shows your fake. This could also mean you are taking the role as a different person. My voices and opinions will always change, however, me; I'm still just Amber Cruse.
Talking about situations of voice power i have things to say.I have a couple different voices we could start with being loud because is the most i use.When people dont listen to what im saying and just dont get my point im loud.I want you to understand me if you fight my saying my voice gets louder and louder.I have a calm voice too.When someone speaks to me like telling me something i dont know or convincing me of something i have my calm voice.It lets you know im on you side of what you saying and i understand so tell me more.Using the calm voice is more me and you conversating.I also have a frustrated voice which is the best power voice.When im stressed out and upset in a frustrated way i speak to you differently.That voice is telling you i dont want to be bothered which alot of people dont like.So as you can see i have many different voices that dont change me at all is just how i am.It just shows you each side of me but is all me.
I think that i tend to only really have one voice, this voice is hard to explain because its a voice that cant really be labeled, so to speak, its kind of just a 'johnnyp' voice its usually a calm voice that isnt afraid to speak its opinion. the way i see it, is that my voice is a bunch of voices put into one. i dont really think im puting what im trying to say into words right, im not good at that. so basically what im saying is i have one voice just the all around me voice.
I haven’t taken the time to count them, nor do I plan to, but I know I have more than one. I don’t know whether I use the same basic voices in different ways, like at different times, but my voices change depending on what it needs to be used for. and I don’t think I could capture myself in a single voice even if I wanted to. I am who I am regardless of how I choose to express it; I am complex and my point of view often fluctuates, so that it would be rather difficult, and in my opinion anyway, quite unnecesary to try and capture.I absolutely have different voices for different situations and purposes. I alter mine based on the person or people I’m speaking to and the situation at hand. Some people need someone to be in-your-face with anything you want them to understand, some need a gentle encouragement, and others are in between, and though my judgement isnt always correct, I do my best to use my voice effectively.
And lastly, no, I don't think changing your voice changes who you are. If you’re trying to be something other than the person you are, then your voice can help you make others think differently of you, and change who you are in their eyes but I think becoming a different person takes a much more rigid course of action than simply changing the way you communicate. Also, I think your voice can change as a result of a change/changes in personality, but not the other way around.
I think that i do have different voices for different situations but none that i can really speak about with certainty. when i'm dealing with a situation with my friends and they are arguing with me, yes i do tend to over react sometimes and raise my voice but not to a harsh extent. then there are other times when i'm with my family and my mom will get on my nerves or something, i'll yell at her but i never yell to extreme. i have had anger management before and i guess i could still use it but like i said i dont ever speak louder to someone that i wouldnt want to speak to me with the same tone. <-- ah, that was confusing. i personally think that i only have one voice, but it is a voice that does actually have very strong power. i am very loud, and i know that. lol. lately i have noticed that i've been talking more quietly; like for once i'm starting to use my inside voice. i dont think that if i use a different voice it makes me a different person because in the end, i'm still aimee and nothing has changed.
i do agree and i think that everybody have a voice in room 204. Me i dont really use it alot because i am shy sometimes or i just dont want to talk. but sometimes i do say stuff.some people have in that i know have a big voice and some cant stop talking.i talk when i am spoken to or if i am in a big arguement.i use my voice in different type of situations. in some i speak clam but in the bad ones i my voice will be heard.i think that i have a voice for everything.Some times i think i need to control myself.i dont really relate to this topic because i dont really say much in room 204 and i dont know why.
I think that i have a few different voices. For example, when im with my friends I will be loud and talk to the same way that they talk, but when im around adults and other people that are older than me i decied to not talk the way i do when im with my friends. People who speak softly but know what they are talking about, will make a change. Its not how loud someone speaks, but the way that they put thier words in. Someone can talk really loud and have no clue what they are talking about. That person would just go in one ear and out the other. People who make good points will stick in there for a while and make you think.
Well you can tell my voice from about a mile away. Because i have so many of them. When we are reading i tend to change my voice because i like too. I capture my voice in many ways. Well i think that using a different voice makes me a different person because i dont know probably its very akward to me and to other people. This is me Mr...........Vegggggggggggggggggggaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... i know i know very anoing told you.....lol
I think that I have many voices that I use at different times. I have a quiet/calm voice when I'm trying to give someone advise and encouragement. Many people don't know this, but I have a loud voice. Anytime you see me out of school or hanging with my friends, I'm as loud as I want to be. I have no reason why this is not expressed in school, maybe it's because I think that it shouldn't be like that. Whenever I'm nervous my voice tends to shake a little and I fidget around a lot. It's completely hilarious when I get into my excitement voice. I can't stop smiling from ear to ear and I begin to talk really fast. Since I'm excited, I talk with my hands a whole lot and can't stay still in one spot. I don't think that I just have one single or tone of my voice. In one day I could go from being quiet around teachers to really excited around my friends. I think there is a reason why everyone has different voices, mainly to sort of impress people. Think about it, when a guy is trying to sell his campaign to his boss, he uses a calm and collected voice. When around friends, he may use a louder voice because he thinks that if he doesn't talk loud no one would pay attention to him. If a person has something exciting to say, they get hyped up about it because if they don't do this then the other person wouldn't think that they did something exciting. Using a different voice, doesn't make you a different person. It just shows the different sides of your personality. Personally I think that it does matter what kind of tone of voice you use to a certain extent, but the person would pay closer attention to the words coming out of your mouth.
i know i have my own voice and i know that a lot of people can tell you that. i've always been idependent and very opinionated. some people have heard my voice in a bad way especailly if i was talking about them or yelling in thier face and others would tell you my voice is a nice thing because i was being honest or open to them. my voice can get me in trouble because sometimes i speak before i think. i only have one voice because i am only me and no one else. however, my voice does have differnet tones. mainly my voice is loud and i speak sarcastically. sometimes i get higher pitch when i'm trying to be cute or get very low when i'm telling secrets. i normally have a lot to say. how can people know you if you dont know how to speak your true voice. voices get loud and deep when people are angry and they get soft and squeky when your sad. the tyep of voice does depend on the circumstance. i dont think it makes you a different person though. different voices just show the type of emotion you're feeling.
After reading this question, it sort-of made me think about a few different things at once. I'm not too sure why, but i think that's what these questions are designed for. Anyway, i think i have more than one voice. At school, i am usually quiet, and don't say too much. I have somewhat explained why i'm quiet in previous blog entries, but i feel, that my other two voices make up for my school voice. That being said, my second voice that i have, would be the voice i use around my friends. I'm much more talkative, and sometimes even the most talkative in the group. Go figure. I think i'm more active in conversations when i know the people i'm around. Finally, the last voice that i have would have to be the voice i use for sports. This voice is different from the other voices, in that I have a more of a take charge attitude rather than just listening to other people. I make other people listen to me, since i like to control certain situations during games. Even though, i have three different voices, well at least i think there's three. Maybe the second two could be intertwined or something, i'll always be the same person on the inside. No matter how quiet or loud i am, i'll still always be Nick, and no one can change that.
I think i have a few voices. I have my normal voice that I use when I would just like to talk to my friends. I have my louder voice, which i would use if I were to answer a question in class or to present a project. I have my yelling voice which I use in the hallways with my friends just so we stand out. I have a whisper, for telling secrets? I have a stern voice that I would use if I were mad or anything of the sort. I believe that I use each voice at the appropriate time and each one will identify my emotions, just like everyone else.
Well to me I have a couple of voices here are some one is when I talk regular which is when every one tells me I sound like a grown man, another one is when I make a high voice when I complain, and one more is when I yell for no reason when I’m feeling silly. Most of the time I constantly capture myself in one single voice which is my complaining but when I talk in that voice I guess it’s funny to other people because they laugh at me I guess because it’s very high pitched and squeaky then when I’m done complaining I go back to my normal vice which is very deep at least that’s what every one tells me. I have different voices for different purposes and circumstances for example when I complain I feel that I have to talk in a very high pitch because when I’m complaining to the person I’m complaining to I feel I have to talk like that because it will most likely make them laugh or make them mad either way it makes me happy. The voice I make to make me a different person is when I talk very silly to make me seem like a very silly person. When I talk like that I make I a lot of people laugh and I’m not really a silly person so the how that voice make me a different person. So those are some of the voice’s I use that make me seem like a different person.
Mrs. Bunje, you have a voice. Your voice speaks louder than anyone else's. My voice, on the other hand is a little different. I consider myself to have a loud voice. I think of a voice as the traits that make me, me. It's also how I present myself to people around me. I have always been a humble person, and I would like to stay that way. It might not get immediate attention, but when people find out who I really am, they will know the real me.
I try to take advantage of everything and experience everything there is to experience. I think sports, smarts, and especially music really express who I really am. I never let one thing over power. I was always told. "everything in moderation" and also "don't ever let one trait describe the whole YOU". So, Bunje, I hope you have heard my voice this year. I know I can be a slacker sometimes, but not everybody is perfect. Live life with no regrets. Rock out. I'm gonna miss you. ( I know ur teaching Jr.s next year) ;)
The power of the spoken word is very much underestimated. I think that words are one of the most influential tools that a person can use. Sometimes you may not realize it but almost everything that your friends, family, or teachers say influences the choices that you make every day. Every single person has a “voice” it just depends on how the person uses it. I know that I tend to be a little quiet for the most part unless I am spoken too or if I really feel strongly about a certain topic that we are discussing in class then I might say something. I think that I have many different voices and I use them all. For example, I have a voice that I use when I am around friends and then I have a voice I that I use when I’m around adults. Just this past weekend I was walking to a job interview with my friend and I was talking like I would with my friends but as soon as I stepped through the door my whole demeanor changed. It is kind of like when you write or a blogg and you come up with sentences that you would never use in day to day life but you use it in the paper because you know it will help you get a better grade. Even though I have more than one voice I don’t think it changes who I am, I think it just changes how I express my thoughts.
I think that i have some different voices i guess it all depends on what i talk about. Some times i could be a very quiet person but than sometimes i could be loud. But i see my self more as a quiet person. I dont really like to change my voice because i hate to think about what other people think about me so i usally just stay quiet.In Room 204 i know that i have a voice in that class because i know in that class i can talk about anything and i feel more comfortable when i talk. But dont get me wrong if some one is bothering me and is getting on my nerves i will really speak up and say something but most of the time i dont so i just like to be my self and move along. I know that i will always have a voice in room 204 and im so glad for that.
I have many many differnt vocies, at differnt times. It just depends who i am around. Like when i am around people i dont really know, i dont speak up much but if i do then i then talk quite. But around my freinds i am very loud and crazy and talk like hell. I aways have a voice around my freinds, since they are their to listen. And then around my family i have a differnt voice, but no matter how i talk or speak they will listen, even if it is very serious or if it just me messing around, they listen. I never catch myslef in one single tone or voice, i change it 24/7 around the clock ha. But, honsetly i really change my tone of voice like all the time, it is just something i do to try and cheer poeple up. Yes, i believe using a differnt voice makes a differnce in who you are. Becuase for example if you walk up to somebody you have liked since the beginning of they year and have waited to talk to the person the whole time, and you walk up too serious and just talk about yourself and not let that other person talk, they will think your annoying and should go away. But then if you walk about just normal not to serious, not to goofy just normal and let them talk to lear about them and you talk to them so they can find out what kind of person you are. That is an example. P.S. Mrs. Bunje, in the movie freedom writers the class that it happends in is room 203! once class away haha.
I have a few voices. Some are clearer now than others. I could never stay in one single voice, what would be that point in having a voice if you only had one. People have a tendancy to drowed out the constante, so having one voice could cause you to be drowed out evenutally. My voices very and only one other person in this world knows what my true voice is. I have my sarcasic voice, my demanding voice, my mother voice, my sister voice, my annoyed voice, and this list can go one. But the real voice is still being formed into one single voice.To most people when i use(lets say my sister voice) i do come acrossed as more friendly and easier to talk to. But when i switch to lets say my mother voice and can be sweet but i use the tough love and i dont pull any punches so that makes me alittle hard to talk to. so basicly i have many voices. Most of them are more likly to be drowned out than others because i hold back alot, but sometimes they can be heard with alot of streght behind them.
Tonight I had a conversation with a friend of mine and he reminded that i'm like neon light which brings me to what kind of voice I am. He said I have my moments, meaning there are times I have my loud moments where i speak my mind and say exactly how i feel, although I know that I have my quiet moments where I like to sit back and just listen. Most would describe me as an intimidating person when they first meet me and suprisingly that has a lot to do with my voice my loud outspoken voice can leave that kind of impression. I like to be portrayed as a strong and independent girl who doesn't need a man to live and the more I speak my mind and stepping up in intellectual conversations the power of my voice will continue to grow. So I have more then one voice but they come with different situations when i'm mad i'll become loud, when I want to be heard and want to get my point across I become outspoken, but when I just want to listen and learn I become quiet. My voice makes me who I am and whether that means i'm a powerful independent girl or an intimidating girl, either way i'm happy with my voice.
Everyone has a voice and someone will always be there to listen to it. In my eyes there will be someone who cares about what you are saying. No matter how big or little the situation is. I believe that my voice is heard when I want it to be heard. Im a very loud and talkitive person. I can get my point across. Im a very good talker. I just tend to keep my opinions to myself in classrooms because I feel as though its never what anyone would think of. Usually I think the opposite of everyone elses opinions. Its just how ive always been I like to think about things to the fullest and as different as I can. I think that I have all different voices. I have my loud voices I guess I use when I want to stand out and be loud. Than I have my softer side where I keep what I think to myself. When I think of voice I think of only one voide but used in many different ways. I think that everyone uses their voices the way they want too. When something needs to be heard it will be. When something isnt that important than it wont be heard as much. I try to use my voice the best I can all the time. I always want to show my opinion and thoughts but there a wrong and right time for them I believe. Basically your voice is something you need to make stand out and strong. It’s a powerful thing.
hm im pretty sure i speak for everyone when i say we had a big voice in your class. you always considered our opinions no matter how crazy they were. i cant think of any examples at the moment, but i know that as long as i apply my self, i can always be heard. i wouldnt consider myself as only having one "voice" or way of being. i use the power of my voice depending on the situation. and im very open minded , so i usually consider other peoples voices as well.i dont think just because u have different voices means your a different person. i just think it means your unbigoted. it all depends on the situation.
Everyone’s voice is heard in room 204. In 204, you can say anything and our classmates can accept you for you. I have a voice that can be loud and stern or quiet but demanding. Voice is one the most powerful things an individual can have. I find myself to use different tones of voice depending on the situation. I have different voices for different purposes and circumstances. Sometimes you need a more powerful voice to be heard and sometimes you need a quiet, strong voice to get the attention of others. Using a different voice does not make you a different person. Different voices give you a different self demeanor from other’s points of views. This can help welcome you to a situation or have others put up walls to push you away. This is why it is important to know what tone of voice is appropriate for what situation. You need to know how to convince others to listen to what you are saying. It is important to always stand for what you believe is true and never let someone take away your voice. Your opinions make you the person that you are and if you do not have the ability to voice them, you are not being who you really are. Speak your mind, stand up for what is right and know that in the power of your voice, you can conquer wonders.
I don't know if my voice is loud or not. On how my voices I have, I only have ones- mine. What i think my voice tone is, is a not loud tone of voice. The kind of tone that can get calm at first and get louder and louder. But usually I stay calm, and it's mostly about everything. I can use a voice that can be funny, serious, or mellow. Either way it's going to be my voice. But my main voice is not so loud kind of voice tone. And I usually use it for all circumstances. I rarely get loud, that usually isn't me. So me being real loud makes me become different.
I TEND TO BE THE LOUD GIRL SOMETIMES MY LOUDEST GIVES OFF A BAD IMPRESSION ON PEOPLE SOMETIMES IT SHOWS POEPLE I DON'T CHANGE FOR ANYONE. THERE ALWAYS THAT TIME THOUGH WHEN YOU HAVE THE LOW TIMIT VOICE ON. ESCPIALLY WHEN YOU ARE IN A REALTIONSHIP YOU ALWAYS CHOOSE TO HAVE DIFFERENTS VOICES BECAUSE WHEN YOU ARE MAD YOU ARE LOUD AND WHEN YOUU HAPPY TALK LIKE YOU WON A MILLION DOLLARS THERe ARE SOME MANY VOICES I HAVE AND MY MAIN ONE IS LOUD AND I MAINLY USE THAT TO SHOW POEPLE I REPESENT A LOVING LOUD BLACK GIRL THAT IS NOT AFAID TO USE HER VOICE TO SHOW WHO SHE IS OR CHANGE HERSLEF FOR ANYONE!!!!!!! AND HOW LOUD I TALK AND WHAT I CHOOSE TO SAY MAKES ME VERY DIFFERENT
I agree that louder voices tend to drown out softer ones; however, the soft voice tends to come from one who thinks about what they say before they shout it out so it might be a good idea to tune out the loud voice and listen to the soft. I have one voice. My voice. It doesn't change because I don't change when I'm in different situations. Whether I'm talking to my grandmother, my best friend, or a teacher, I generally speak the same way. I'm sarcastic and opinionated. If I don't agree with something I'll let them know. However, I'm not rude in doing so. I think having different voices would make me a different person and I don't want to flip back and forth from different personalities. I'd prefer to be one constant, reliable, and honest person all day everyday. I find people with a million and one different voices kind of irritating. Why not just choose who you want to be and stick too it and stop letting other people influence you? I just see having one voice and making you respected and heard in that one voice is a much more sensible way to live instead of trying to earn respect through different voices with different people.
I feel like I only have one voice. I usally capture myself in one single voice sometimes. But most of the time I have different voices for different reasons. Personaily it does make you a different person when you change different voices. I don't limit my voice to any occasion. Because it depends on the moment that it happens.
This blog is probably not going to come out the way i want it to , and i won't explain everything right but to start off , i think that i have a few voices . I have my normal voice that i use in regular conversations when I’m not voicing my opinion . I try to keep most of my opinions to myself unless it something i really feel strongly about . i guess i do this because i don't like disagreeing with people and i always feel like it will start a fight . Also , because i feel like it will change their opinion on me . However , like i said before if its something that i feel really strongly about i won't be afraid to use my voice . who you are in my opinion . Depending on who i'm with and where i'm at i have different voices . From home to my friends to my teachers , my voices change . I think that most people are like that too . Having and using different voices does make you a different person , it makes you
I have many voices and I know which one to use at the apropriate time.I'm mostly quite and its not beacause I don't have nothing to say, its because i like to observe or listen to others opinion.Before I was not like this. I use to be loud and say things without thinking it through. Though now I'm quite I can still defend myself. My words are strong and I know how to express myself. If I'm really intrestd in a movement and I really want to be involved in it i will speak my opinions and my ideas.Sometimes in class discussions that I'm intrestd in, I still don't speak out, but it's only because I rather speak out in a conversation that means something or its going to make a difference so I hold what I have to say inside my head. But i do enjoy listening to others beacuse its intresting to me to see what others think in their minds. I guess thats just in my personality.The way I am I take it in a positive way, because you can prevent saying something wrong or prevent acting in a bad mannerly way. Because I am quite people mistake me as being weak or a soft person, but I like the fact that some people think of me that way, because then when I really speak out and show my other side they become shock or they are in aw.
I have more than one voice, I speak out on things that I think need to be spoke out on, and I keep my voice when it’s not needed. If you know me you can see that I have way one than one voice, and tone. My tone can change at times but my voice on it will still be strong and straight to the point. This means even if Im quite with my tone my voice will still be heard because I make it that way. And this varies on how I feel about the subject or object. Also my way of being changes I’m not the same all the time. That means that I do voice my opionion on matters that I think that its worth. When im quite I don’t say anything because somethimes my voice doesn’t even matter even though its heard. I try to make it matter but with different people and situations it doesn’t. This never happens in room 204 because Ms. Bunje always lets us voice ur opinion and it’s heard. This kind of makes me scared to leave because it seems like no one else is going not just let me use my voice but to let it matter. But I have to be strong. I know you are always going to be their to hear me and it matter.
I don't really know how many voices I have, but i'm sure it's more than one. I have different voices circunstances. When I'm at school for example, not every time i'm heard because i know i'm only a student and the teachers and supervisors are in another level, higher than I of course, so I really have to respect them. It doesn't matter what I have to talk about to them, or even if I'm mad, I still talk very low and calm. I can't say that even if I have a soft voice at these circumstances, that I don't try to use the power of words, because I do, and a lot of times, it works. I don't have that kind of voice to everyone that I own respect, even knowing that I should. A good example for that are my parents. Sometimes we argue and I want to show them that I'm right about something or I want to convice them to let me do something, than I have a different voice. I talk louder and at the same time try to use the power of the words. I kniow I'm not supose to talk louder to my parents, I don't know how to explain, because they are my parents and I know them, so I kinda feel confortable to talk louder. When I argue with my friends, then I can be very loud, rude and stressed. All of those three circunstances show how I can be a different person depending the kind of voice that i'm using. I know it's pretty hard to picture me talking like that, because i'm always calm and quiet at school, where I don't really know everyone, so i'm not loud at all.
Thinkin of what to fill this blog up with took me a long time, because it forced me to think about myself and the opinions and voices that i express.
I have different voices, especially when it comes to discussing topics that may b very different than one another.
I often try to think about my opinions and why i feel the way i do, and why iv formed that opinion. Words have ALOT of power, as we read in "Their Eyes Were watching God", they can actually destroy a persons integrity and self worth faster than a wrecking ball to a house.
Its always important to make ur voice heard, particularly if u feel ur standing up and expressing what u feel is right. Although, it is also important to remember to respect the opinions of others, and to be alright with the fact that sometimes, or rather most of the time, people wont exactly agree or follow you blindly, and u have to accept that. Debating others opinions can be interesting, but it should be done respectfully.
Im never quite able to put my opinions in one voice, because i constantly look at topics from all different angles. I like to see the other view of things.
It also depends on the circumstance; i would b more vocal if i felt passionately about the subject, however if i feel the subject is tedious & irritating, i will more than likely be less that active in voicing my opinion.
Having different voices doesnt make you a different person, it just means you think alot and attempt to look at everything and not just ur perspective on the subject. Having more than 1 voice is good because it allows you to b flexible and more open.
Voices are important. They can define our personality unintentionally, so its always an interesting idea.
To me, voice is a very important thing. I do believe that I have more than one voice. I really do not know exactly how many though. It really depends on what the situation is. Sometimes, like mostly in school, I use my voice that is soft and subtle, mostly because I don’t always think like others. There are days where I am loud and want my opinion to be heard. No matter how my voice is, I know there is always someone to listen and understand it. Teacher, friend, family member, fellow classmate, random person, co worker, acquaintance or even an enemy, someone is always there to hear your voice. There are times that my voice is loud and brutally honest, for the good or bad. There are many times that I use my hate voice, and that voice is most of the time loud and clearly understood. I really do not think that using a different voice in mostly every different situation makes someone a different person. It is voice within the voice that really matters and makes a person. I think that voice will exist in every single one of their voices. Even if someone has a different voice for every situation, it is still heard. I know for a fact, that my many different voices does not make me a different person, it just makes me a better one. It is a true benefit. By listening to my different voices, is how people get to know me. It doesn’t always turn out good. I think that people with the most alike voices become friends, maybe even best friends. Every time that one of my friends uses a different voice, it doesn’t make me think of them differently. They are still the same person in my eyes. So next time you use your voice, know that it is always important in someone’s eyes, and someone is always listening, all the time, every time.
many people have many different voices. there are not alot of people who only have one voice. i have many voices. im not sure how many voices i have though. i do not constantly capture myself in one voice. i always have different voices. if i only had one voice and that voice was not heard, my voice would never be heard. since i have many voices my voice may always be heard. if one of my voices is not heard, then i always have others that may be heard. i do have different voices for different circumstances. for example, with my friends i may have a strong voice, but with people i dont know, my voice may not be heard at all. using a different voice does not make u a different person. using a different voice just makes you heard by the people who you want to hear your voice. your voice is different between the people you are around, so if your not a different person around your friends and your parents, if your voice is different around them it does not make you a different person.
It doesn’t matter how loud your voice sounds or how many you have, it’s the words you speak. I believe in speaking out what you believe is true. When it comes to me, I’m loud even when I don’t mean to be. I speak what is true and sometimes the truth hurts. I could remember saying things I don’t mean, just become I couldn’t control my anger. I could remember staying quiet because I let my feelings keep me from talking. I could remember being a to honest with someone and losing everything with them. We all know the ones who yell are the ones who feel as throw they are not being heard and the ones we stay quiet are the ones who have a million things to say. When I’m anger at someone I usually, say things I don’t mean. I yell because I feel as throw I’m not being respected or really heard. When I’m upset I want to tell you what I feel explain the whole issue to you but most of the time I kept it to myself and just ramble words that don’t make sense and cry. When I am just talking to you its pretty much all the same I stay real and true to you but being honest sometimes isn’t all that good. My voice sometimes make me a different person I guess it all depends on who is listening. Maybe, you could be my mother, sister, friend, teacher, co-worker or boyfriend. My tone will change. I won’t talk to my mother the way I talk to my friends, I wont talk to my co-worker the way I talk to my boyfriend. However, one thing won’t change, is my honesty and respect for them. I like talking and expressing myself it’s like a gift you can’t control. Rather, if your mad, upset, or even happy your “volume” in your voice will change, but the words will stay the same.
I have two different voices. I use my two different voices in different situations so I can be taken seriously thought each change. My normal voices my everyday voice. This is used to interact with my peers. Its not really used for making points. It is a soft tone that doesn't make me standout but blend in. My other voice is my professional voice. Many take me seriously when I speak in professional voice. I state very good points and everyone always hears what I have to say. I use this voice to make me stand out above the rest so people can always hear what I have to say. Both voices are used at different times but are equally important and necessary.
Everyone had a voice in room 204. wheather or not it was agreeded with or not doesn't matter, you could still say what you wanted to say.i have a voice but most of the time dont use it. you can tell by my voice when something is wrong or if im mad. when we had class discussions i didnt talk really but i did have a opionion on things that you said. different voices are used for different situations and purposes. using a different voice does not make you a different person, it just changes the mood on what you are trying to say. everyone's voice is important and should not be afriad to use it.
I have a couple of different types of voices. I have the old quite voice which most people see everyday. Which I just sit there and am a little shy everyonce in a while. Also there is the baseball me. That is when it is time for me to get louder. I get louder there because i have to show everyone i am ready, and up for the challenge. Yes usually I am in my quite voice most of the time. Usually you will tend to see me in that voice because i am a little shy everyonce in awhile. But I have different voices for different times. Sometimes using a different voice can make you a different person, because some people change entirerly. Like you can just become loud but some people take it to the next level and get loud and abnoxtious. But you should never be afraid to use your own voice, and opinion because otherwise you just would not be you.
I try to almost always keep one single constant voice. My single voice is kind of monotone and not to loud. Yet I always try to be heard when I speak no matter what. I usually always try to be very calm, cool, and collective no matter what happens. I never try to show to much emotion at anyone single time.But there are those times when my voice completely changes. When I get angry my one voice becomes one loud and angry one, but you will never hear that one Mrs. Bunje. Besides those few times I stay with my one normal,semi emotionless tone. O wait I almost forgot I have one other tone, my basketball tone. In that tone I'm loud and trash talking. That's the voice of pure cockiness. It's that voice that everyone has in the back of there head saying that they are the best and absoutely unstoppable. But that is the voice that everyone hears the least.166 I think every different voice I use changes who i am depending on that time. For example, when I use my angry voice it makes me into a mean little troll like a few people I know. And I really can't stand that voice. As for my basketball voice I kind of enjoy it even though the people I am playing with probably can't stand it. To me my voice and personality are one in the same. Your voice is who you are if you have a silent voice you are most likley a quiet person, and if your a loud person chances are that you are loud. And Mrs. B who do you think that I secretly love!?
I am a person of many voices. Most of you know that I can do endlessly many accents; probably the most famous now is the Mary Warren voice. When I’m not doing my accents however, I have two basic voices, a mad voice and then my normal voice. Everyone knows my normal voice; it’s calm and can be sarcastic. Not many people know my mad voice though, that's because it takes a lot to push me to the point where I’m going to show my anger. My mad voice is loud and hostile. There are other voices I use too though, but they aren’t notable. I don't think that using a different voice makes you a different person; it is just a tool to help you express yourself.
I know that this blog is late, but I was camping and the only thing I didn’t have access to was the internet. I’m sorry, you don’t have to accept it, at least I know I did it.
WELL, IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU THINK A VOICE IS. SOME PEOPLE MAY FEEL THAT A VOICE IS MAKING SURE YOU ARE HEARD AND SPEAKING WITHIN A CONVERSATION. OTHERS MAY THINK A VOICE IS JUST TALKING. I HAVE MANY DIFFERENT VOICES. AT TIMES, I MAY SEEM LIKE A QUIET PERSON, BUT I'M FAR FROM BEING QUIET. THAT'S JUST HOW I COME ACROSS AS BEING. WHEN I AM WITH PEOPLE I AM USED TO AND CRAZY PEOPLE, THAT'S HOW I ACT. WHEN I'M WITH QUIET PEOPLE, I TEND TO SPEAK MORE TO START UP CONVERSATION. SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T BOTHER TO TALK SO I TALK TO MYSELF OR NOT AT ALL. I THINK THAT WOULD MEAN I HAVE DIFFERENT VOICES FOR DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES BECAUSE IT DEPENDS ON WHO I AM AROUND. I THINK THAT SOMETIMES USING DIFFERENT VOICES MAY SEEM LIKE I AM A DIFFERENT PERSON. SOMETIMES THAT MAY BE BAD. THE ONLY THING IS I AM EITHER QUIET OR LOUD AND CRAZY. IM NORMALLY LOUD AND CRAZY AND LIKE TO PARTY AND HAVE FUN (NEVER A NAKED PARTY LIKE JOHN P.) =] SO I THINK IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE SITUATION AND THE PEOPLE I AM AROUND, BUT IN ROOM 204, I KNOW I WILL ALWAYS HAVE A VOICE! THANK YOU MS. BUNJE!
A VOICE IS SOMETHING I THINK EVERYONE HAS EVEN THOUGH SOME PEOPLE DONT LIKE TO LET THEIR VOICE BE HERD. IM THE KIND OF PERSON THAT IF I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY I WILL SAY IT DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION. IN SCHOOL IN CLASSES I DONT REALLY CARE ANYMORE BUT IN OTHER SITUATIONS HWERE I THINK PEOPLE NEED TO BE PUT IN THEIR PLACE I DONT HESITATE TO LET MY VOICE BE HERD. IM NOT ONE TO KEEP WHAT I HAVE TO SAY INSIDE. I DONT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF HAVING MORE THAN ONE VOICE SO I DONT KNOW IF I AHVE MORE THAN ONE. A VOIVE IS A VOICE AND TAHST ALL I PRETTY MUCH KNOW TO THAT. I DONT FIND MYSELF IN ONE TONE AND ONE WAY OF BEING. IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE SITUATION. IF THE SITUATION IS A SAD ONE OF COURSE I WOULD HAVE A DIFFERENT TONE THAN IF THE SITUATION WAS A HAPPY ONE. I DONT THINK USING A DIFFEENT VOICE MAKES YOU A DIFFERENT PERSON. YOU EXPRESS YOUR VOICE WITH THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SITUATIONS, CONFLICTS, AND SUCH THAT YOU GO THROUGH. YOUR VOICE IS ALWAYS THE SAME ITS JUST A MATTER OF THE WAY YOU USE IT AND THE SITUATIONS YOU USE IT IN.
I have a different voices for different situations. For some situations I am really serious and fo other situations I will be funny. Usually when I am with my family I am joking around, but when I am in school I am pretty serious. I think I have a limited voice in society. I cannot vote for anything. Even when I am eighteen one vote for a president is not going to make a difference. Other than voting I really have no say in society. I do feel like I have a voice in school. The teachers are always asking how they can change to help us. We can also vote for our class president and our student council members. Our guidance councilor are always asking how they can help us too. Overall my voice is pretty limited
I have one voice, it is loud. I love talking, talking about things that i do not always talk about. I am not very shy, as you know. I like to talk about things and i think my voice can always be heard. I do not like someone to tell me to stop when i am in the middle of talking or something like that i ahve to get what i want to say out. I guess in certain places i have differents lower voices but not so often. Even around people i do not know i my vice changes a little, but it is still the same. To fill a little in... i am so hungry i would love to have something to eat this was a good idea to have this blog thing in school it rocks my socks! It is really hard to see i think i am starting to get a head ache =D AWESOME!! Well its time for kelsey to share my computer so that is why this is so short =( K bye
How I choose to use my voice usually depends on the situation. If I’m talking about something I truly care about, I’ll speak up and try to use persuasion. Through my many moods, I have different voices to go with them. I try to never be monotone because that’s just boring. When it comes to an extreme situation, when I know that I need to say something, I won’t keep it in. I try to do the right thing. Sometimes I don’t think before I speak, which usually ends badly. I can’t help it sometimes; it just comes out. I always think a lot about what to say when it comes to a tense, awkward situation. I can’t stay in one constant state because my life seems to be always changing. Audacity comes with having a voice. At times, you have to speak up for yourself if you know something’s wrong. When I talk too much at times, I’m annoying. I’ll ramble on for a really long time if it’s something I love…Smile Empty Soul…my guitar Joe…my boyfriend…or animals. Growing up, my big sister often shut me out. That is one reason why I am who I am today. Now I don’t let people do that to me. I built up immunity to that. Usually, the only time I’ll keep quiet is when my mom or a teacher tells me to. I think I’m a strong-willed person. I’ll go after what I want and strive for it if it’s important to me. I don’t let people stop me along the way. When I was in winter track, my dad said I couldn’t do it, so I proved him wrong. I went to almost all of the practices and tried hard. It was the first time I was on a team for something because my dad never let me. My mom wanted me to, but I couldn’t stand up to him because he was too controlling. For now, I'll pick and choose my battles.
Alot of people see me as loud and out spoken and thats how i like it.
i love using my voice to speak my mind, and when i cant talk i write. if someone looked at any personal writings i have written they would be astonished. they wouldnt know what to say to me and they would be probably scared to talk to me. when i cant say how i feel then everything gets bottled up. every since i got the opportunity to speak my mind this year my journal is kind of empty. i would like to say im the same way around everybody, but that would be a lie and i do not tell lies. i have to change how i am around adults, toning down my voice, and being quieter. around almost everyone else i act the same, talk the same and its just me 24/7. when i use a different voice i am the same person just in a different state of mind, and i am still me!! i learned you have to learn to tone down for the better, and anyone didnt experience having to then your not normal!!
**QUIONA**
In my life I have three voices. These three voices consiost of three differnt moods. My first voice is the happy/ funny voice which is used in moments where people could use a laugh to heal their misery. Than there is the Mature voice which i use in adult/ busniss conversations. this can help to get respect. There is also the suck up voice which i tend to use in romantic conversations or when im trying to get out of trouble. There is my fourth voice which is the mafia voice which is sarcastic and demands respect from others.
Voices? Thats a funny word. A person can have one voice and a person can have many voices. I think that almost everyone has more than one voice. This includes me too. I hve more than more voice, in fact i have about three voices. One voice is the voice that i show everyone on a daily base. The nice smart boy voice. The second voice that i have is the voice that i show people when im in church, but i think that everyone has a differnet voice when it comes to church. The third voice that i have is the voice that i show on the soccer field, and this is a voice that no one likes to see because of the power that i have behind that voice. Having these differnet voices dosen't make me a different person it just makes me a little more able to voice what i want to voice.
I myself have a loud voice. i often let people hear what is on my mind. i always voice my opinion, and literally am loud that way people hear what i have to say. i like to think that i have one constant voice, but i am starting to think that i might have a few voices for diffferent situations. Out in public in front of people, i am not shy, and i like everyone to know that. that is why i am very loud and outgoing. once you get to know me very well, i feel as if i dont have to be so outgoing, so i like to tone it down and relax a bit. then there is my third voice which is for people that are superior to me like grandparents or just adults in general. i feel as if i have to have a sense of respect for them, so i try to use proper grammer and all that stuff. i dont feel as if different voices make me a diffferent person, i just feel that in cerain situations, different voices are needed.
i would have to say that i have a few voices. i have a normal tone for when im just fine and chillin out. i have an angry tone of voice when im mad at something, somebody, or just simply mad at the world like im loud and kind of obnoxious and its not so much a good thing but im mad what can i do. everybody is normally loud and talking a bit different when they are in bad moods. i have a very happy and perky voice when im happy and perky also very loud and kind of obnoxious but in a totally different way kind of like a hyper tone. so i dont capture myself in just one single voice. i think if i were to only have just one tone of voice in my opinion i would be kinda boring. to me different tones and voices are interesting and takes part in making you who you are. some people are totally different people others are the same but are just looked at weird because they may not be doing normal things they normally would do. im not going to lie i tend to change sometimes when im in a different tone like when im mad or upset or just oblivious to the world. but that doesnt change me as a person just my tone.

I have many kind of voices, I can be loud (with my friends family and people who I really know, but other times i'm just quite, like when im in school, I think of it as i'm in school to learn not talk so much. I can also have a tone, either with my mother or my brother just because if there just messing with me or just being mean and I don't like yelling, but when I get pissed off I get really upset and start yelling at everyone and get into a bad mood.I'm not syre what I always catch myself being, I can't really explain it because it's kinda just like a blahhh to me, I laugh and have fun, but I don't think I do it enough, i'm always working homeowrk and just trying to fit everything in all at once. I like using different voices because I feel that it makes me feel a lot better, either i'm just sitting around doing nothing and then the next minute my friend will be over and we'll have a lot of lough and it makes me feel better. Thats how I feel about using different voices.
i only have one voice because thats all i need just to be myself and not have diffrent types of me. i think using different voices does make u a diffrent person because ur doing more then one voice so then there must be another side to you or may b u have 3 or 4 voices but thats just not your main self so yeah i only have one voice:]
How many voices do i have? i would have to say maybe two soft and loud. Me somethies i can be really quite like when i come to a now place and i only speak when spocken to. Or when i just dont feel like being brothered by anyone i just stay quite and i only speak when spocken to. Then there are times where i am in a good mood and want to talk. I catch my self doing a little to much at some points in time and i fix that talking problem. But i Talk just to hear myself talk some times. I also can be serious and stright foward on a topic and give a good answer on any topic worth the time answer.Overall if i have somthing to say i will say it no holding back unless its mean then i will keep it to myself.
well i dont know how my tone of voice really is. i dont talk much during any of my classes. im very quiet until im out with some of my friends then im sort of lound and obnoxious.so yeah i guess you can say my tone changes but it depnds where im at and whom im around.but most of the time im really quiet and soft spoken. i do talk loud in some classes when i go to answer a question and the teacher dont listen i scream if across the room. but other than that like i said im quiet. i hate talkin out loud. that is why i just dont talk anymore. i guess my tone does change when im not just around my friends now.
well sure i have diffrent kinds of voices i have and in door and and outdoor voice. haha no really i have many voices, i can have a passionite voice that i speak loudly and fully with and try to persuade people with but i also have a voice that is layed back that has an attitude of it comes when it comes. I can and probubly have been seen in these diffrent voices. My voices havnt really been use in the class room that much and the voice i use is a joking manor, one that i can engage in a conversation with but not get to serius in to it. Although i do have all these voices i do not think that they make me a diffrent person in anyway, i just feel that they let me express myself in diffrent ways whick helps. You cant go threw like as a monotone you know.
Well, most people that know me, know that im a loud person, thats just who i am. I have a very loud voice, and definately drown out the voices of the more quiet one, im not sure if thats a good thing or not, i guess it could go both ways. I feel bad becuase sometimes others dont get a chance to speak up becuase im in the way, but other times i know what i say contributes to the conversation. However, sometimes, which is rare, i am shy and dont do much talking, but thats almost never. So im going to say that i have one voice, and i love to use it! I love entertaining, i love attention, you know all that, and i really love to make people laugh. Sometimes my mouth blurts out dumb things, but that just makes it more me. Words are strong, but how youuse them is stronger, i believe, and im content with the way mine is.

In room 204 we have learned that there is quiet ones in the class and also loud ones. As you know I am the quiet one. One who just sit back and just listen to what somebody else have to say. I don't really express my feeling or share my thoughts to anyone. I have only one voice. A calm and quiet voice. Although I don't really show it in school but the tone of my voice can change. When I'm angry I don't have a little soft calm voice. When I am angry that is the only time the tone of my voice change. Other than that i'm in my normal voice tone.

I have a voice for each crowd and each room. Sometimes i have a blend of voices. for example in front of my friends my voice is loud because i know whoever is listening wont judge me. In front of another crowd however my voice becomes drastically different. Also in front of my elders like joe camp for example i try to speak in a way that is respatfull.I dont think however because they way i speak makes me a differnt person because its al from my same mind and even though the tone is different the ideas behind my speech are the same.

I HAVE AMPLE AMOUNTS OF VOICES WHEN I TALK TO PEOPLE ESPECIALY WHEN I SPEAK TO PEOPLE I HAVE JUST MET. FOR EXAMPLE SAY IF I HAVE JUST MET YOU, I WOULDN'T POUR OUT ALL MY EMOTIONAL FEELINGS I PROBABLY WOULDN'T EVEN EXPRESS MY FEELING AT ALL UNTILL I THOUGHT YOU WAS WORTHY ENOUGH. MY MOM IS A DIFFERENT STORY BECAUSE I CAN ONLY ELL HER SOME WHAT OF EVERYTHING BECAUSE SHE HAS SELECTIVE LISTENING AND REMEMBERING. SO SOME TIME I FEEL THOUGH THAT IT IS A WASTE OF MY BREATH TRING TO EXPLAIN HOW I FEEL OR TO GIVE MY OPION ABOUT SOMETHING. I MORE LIKELY KEEP STUFF TO MYSELF BECAUSE I FEEL AS THOUGHT THAT I AM OLD ENOUGH TO FIX MY OWN PROBLEMS OR TRY TO WALK AWAY FROM SOMETHING THAT I KNOW THAT ISN'T RIGHT. I KIND OF THINK THAT BECAUSE OF MY AGE I LIMIT MYSELF THINKING THAT I DON'T HAVE NO SAY IT IS WHAT IT IS .
My voice...is there even such a thing as many voices? I don't think we can refer to our voice in more than one way, and that way is through using words, unless of course you use random gargle noises like Ms. Bunje, but that isn't very effective unless the person/people know what you mean. Which we do Ms. Bunje so no worries in that. In referring to ways we can use our voice; volume, the way you go about saying things, direct and indirect, and of course the tone. In order to answer a question like this with precision, one must delve into the 3 ways of using your voice. My voice only has one volume and that is a low, resolute. I rarely ever raise my voice to the point of yelling, maybe make the volume resonate, but rarely yell. When speaking within a loud group, I don't bother with trying to have a screaming match with the obnoxious/oblivious people, don't worry it isnt possible to be both. I just sit there and wait for those people to get their urgent, expressive need out of them since unlike them I won't go crazy or die if I don't speak. Of course if it gets to the point where those people who can't control themselves for whatever reason, can't or won't stop speaking their views I decide to go into what I like to call a "Waking Dream", properly called Fuge State. I might divulge what that is at a later time, then again maybe not to those people that don't know what it is. As for my way of saying things, I only speak in either my normal calm, moderate speed way and my slow sarcastic way to joke around with Drayke and Tony. A simple answer lies in whether or not I'm direct when talking to someone, its obviously since if I'm going to do something, I face it directly and do it. My tone of voice sort of ties into the way of saying something, the difference is tone only involves the how you say words not the way you say the words. For a quick example, tone could involve you speaking very sarcasticly, but not like the way of saying it by either talking really fast or really slow; like when someone isn't listening and comprehending everything, you slow down your voice to joke with/agitate them or so they can understand. My tone is either one of two things, I'm either my calm, serious tone or I'm speaking in my sarcastic tone to be humerous. More often that not I speak in my calm, serious voice when I talk to people since most of the jokes I make I'm absolutely serious about them and that is what makes them funny; only people I let talk to me would know that though and only people I do that to 4 people in all of Ms. Bunje's class.
