In-class Blog Post

The first line that I've chosen is "enter the world refreshed by the hope". I've chosen this exact piece of the poem because I think the advise within it is pretty useful in the everyday life.
One of the best and most influencing sentences is "Remember, there is a little lasting joy in things done for gold or fame". This phrase is very relatable and encouraging.
Then goes "Without love your spirit will be a flower picked without purpose and thrown on the ground to be trampled by anyone." This line is my favourite as it has a deep meaning to it.

My first monologue

https://youtu.be/TubcVUMUlh8 - my monologue

- I had a good eye contact with the camera:) And I also didn't move around the stage a lot.
- I need to work more on my stage voice and controlling my emotions.
- Others' performances were great due to their acting skills, high confidence and good stage voice.
- In my opinion we need to work on boosting our confidence and improving our acting skills/
