Something special?

Well, today was pretty interesting. Had to write up a 60 second radio commercial script for Advertising Copywriting class. I slacked off a while, played my PSP when I'm supposed to be discussing it with my team mates. When the lecturer finally caught me, I started to do the work. Ah well, she said I'm the best copywriter of the class anyway so I knew she wouldn't mind. (Show off)

My mates tried to create a script and asked me to simply translate them into English. But hell, they completely misunderstood what are we supposed to do, so I went and remake an entirely different script by myself. Being an avid listener to radio commercials, while driving or at home, it took me only a short time to come up with a script in the correct format based on what I've listened so far.

So here I am, acting as the announcer, and I tried to talk like how a radio announcer would, but it's really not easy. Still, I enjoy the moment where I start talking, and the chaotic classroom went silent. I gotta admit, I like the attention. =)

Got another praise from the lecturer again, maybe I'm just doing this subject so well because I'm very exposed to these kind of things. Next week, I'll have to make a television commercial and act it in front of the class, I'll just see how it goes. ;)
