Anybody who has spent some time speaking with me, will realise two things. One, that i can go talking non-stop. Two, that i am loud.

Well, the above two defines me to some extent, but i'm trying to tone down on both. When mother asks me to speak softly at home, i reply back saying that there is nobody else apart from me who can create a racket. A home needs somebody to yell, shout, now and then. To break the flow of silence, which can appear monotonous. And in my house, i perform the job efficiently.

V at college, asked me if i could ever speak softly, she always insists on me doing that. Thus, i have to learn to speak softly, before i leave college. At the least, i have to remember to speak softly when she is around me.

Me, not chitter-chittering away is quite a reality now. At home and at college. Many a time, i maintain silence when required, and still am pulled up for speaking in class!

I guess, my lecturers at college refuse to believe that i speak a tad less in class. On the other hand, i think they prefer me to be so.(It's far-fetched, but it seems likeable!!)
