post introduction to the class
I shared some things about myself to the class the first day of class but something they do not know about me is that I am Venezuelan & Ecuadorian. I was born in Maracaibo Venezuela but came the the U.S when I was a baby and went back to Venezuela for the first time at the age of 16 so that was a good experience. I would like to travel all over the world. My first trip that i will unfortunately be funding on my own is going to be next year for winter break, I am going back to visit Venezuela for the time I will be off from school and as of now after that I hope to go to Brasil for a month in 2014 for the world cup. I'd like to visit Italy, Australia, Colombia and probably many more. I want to do something special. I told the class i'd like to go into sports broadcasting, which is true or maybe be a publicist, but i'd also like to do something worthwhile, be a part of something, stand for something and contribute to correcting whatever social problem or problems I want to fix. I'd like to be able to live comfortably in the future so that If i want to take a month off to do things like go to the world cup than I can do it without any problem. Ideally, i'd like to live in New York, in the heart of the city, because I feel that that is where I need to be for what I want to do but if I end up having a shot somewhere in the mid-west or somewhere with a lot of snow which i despise, than i would work there too, until i can do what I want.

I have not personally heard a lot of great public speakers, but one man i have personally heard speak is Andres Lara. He was a Cuban refugee that came to the United States with practically nothing, like a lot of Cubans did at that time, on a boat, in order to escape his oppressive country. I admire him as a public speaker because i believe he is successful at what he does. He is a motivational speaker and goes to seminars talking to students and people about his own personal trials and tribulations that he faced and overcame to be what he is today,in hopes to inspire others. I think what makes him stand out and admirable is that he shares his own genuine story about coming to a country with nothing, homeless at 16 and eventually writing books to help people and becoming a success despite the adversity he faced. On top of that, besides the content of his message the way he delivers this message, I think also adds to his success as a public speaker. He paces the room & uses gestures but not in a way that seems fidgety instead he uses the gestures efficiently to enhance his story. & in many of his seminars he engages the audiences making it interactive. I believe that at the end of a seminar like these, one should take something out of it and really think about what they heard & I think if they do than the public speakers spiel should be considered a success.
