Study Saturday: PS is for …

Public Speaking

And how it applies to the college courses that I teach and my own doctoral dissertation

Flashback *Feline* Friday: My grad cat keeps me company through this cube at my desk! {Fun fotos taken when we lived in Cali then when I taught in the Valley}

Don’t y’all always like my alliteration?

Flashback *Feline* Friday: Here are the other dimensions of my grad cat at my desk! {More Bay & el Valle}

Type of Presentation	Description	Dissertation
Informative Speech	Sharing facts based on research	Concept Proposal as Information Session for my Committee
Persuasive Speech	Supporting opinions with research	Proposal Defense to convince Committee; IRB request
Interview	Asking and answering questions ~ which also involves the powers of persuasion	Committee, Faculty and Public Defense ~ all for which I’m preparing to get into defense shape (also involved when I initially applied to my doctoral program, my final and comprehensive exams)
Special Occasion Speech	Celebrating an event	Acknowledging my support system after successful full Defense ~ when I shoot to become Doctor

With cat art as all the rage lately, I’ve been trendsetting since before then at my work zone! + #FrogFetish#Keroppi

PS also is for … Pet Smart ~ where I go for my catsentials!

Don’t cat photos always make anything better? This from my sweaty swigs, ya dig?

A&A *Highlights* this Week:

• Big Asia actually being my bed buddy from sleeping to waking up for the 1st time in 9 years (she usually sleeps at my feet or elsewhere)!
• Vocal Annie playing copy cat with me by imitating (the greatest form of flattery) the pitch of my voice ~ another element that I teach in speech!

Therefore, Lil’ Ann‘s the mockingcat!
