Tabooo-hooooooo..!!!

My all time favourite board game, Taboooooooooooo :)



Hey there readers!! I'm pretty sure you guys know what "Taboo" is, for those who don't know please kindly search at Google, it has all the answers. Now speaking of Taboo, earlier this week, my Media Appreciation lecturer came to the class with this board game in his hands. He then held it up and said 'we are going to play this game today'. I was pretty shocked. He always comes up with something new. He tells us things we don't know. So at that moment, I was just waiting for him to surprise us. He then wrote this term at the whiteboard "Thought Process". Then I knew where this was going.

Now, let me share with you guys my experience relating to the game. Back then, whenever we had family gathering, my cousins and I use to play this game. I actually hated this game so badly because it made me feel stupid that time. I always fail to describe the word which I pick, because I use to stammer a lot, so by the time I describe the word, I'll be out of time. Not even once I could play this game right. My cousins use to make fun of me all the time. I use to feel very jealous of them, because they always end up guessing right and also describing the word correctly.

So then, what I did, each day, after I came back from school, I stand in front of the mirror and imagine the person in the mirror is someone else. Then I would just pick any book, paper, or any reading material and I would begin reading. I would picture myself as if I'm on the stage giving a speech. As days passed, I slowly stopped stammering. I still do stammer when I get nervous, but not as bad as last time.

The reason why I wanted to stop stammering is simply because I wanted to prove my cousins that I can play this game. There were 2 things I realised when I stopped stammering, I could think faster and whatever message my brains interpreted I could get it out from mouth faster with the flow.

In a nutshell, I would like to say that this game was ONE of the reason why I could speak clearly today without stammering and it also improved my 'thought process'.

That's all for now..Have a great day ahead peepz!! CHEERS!!
