How to communicate by not talking?

Now for some absurd tips of how to communicate with one person by not talking to continue berborak-ing? This is very essential if U lost your voice, you are at a meeting, attending a lecture, getting nagged and in situations that restrict U from talking.



1. Use Sign Language

- Of course the other person must understand your sign language so U won't seem to look like a fool or trying to insult the people that actually use sign language which is absolutely not one thing that U want to do.

Upside: exercising of the hand

Downside: Might end up miscommunicating or insulting does that use real sign language. Not to mention U might make a fool out of yourself.







2. Write.

- such a simple thing to do. if U can't talk? write... or email or sms or IM it's so simple. Of course talking would be much faster but what if U lost your voice eh? U can also practive your writing skills too...

Upside: Practice speed writing / typing, make use of the mailing service

Downside: Hand might get too tired after a while






3. Draw.

- play charades... this will allow U to practice your child like artistic skills. This takes much much longer than writing so I suggest writing would be much faster.

Upside: practice drawing skills and creativity

Downside: Too slow and hard to convey long messages



4. Learn how to communicate with your eyes.

- This requires tonnes of pratice mind U. Only Tony Leung can speak with his eyes and this requires A LOT of time so stare at the mirror more and practice does stares!

Upside: Potential acting career

Downside: Might have eye wrinkles real fast and limited words to choose from







5. Learn ventriloquism

- this requires a lot of skill and it takes a real brave person to look at the scary puppet straight in the eye... *shudder* Strict No-no for people with puppet phobia

Upside: Can perform on stage with ur puppet and not to mention speaking without moving your lips

Downside: No real downside except that people might be focusing more on the puppet and not U


6. Speak without moving lips

- quite simliar with the above but this wouldn't be much scary.... I would say this is tougher than the above as this has no puppet for a distraction.

Upside: can make your mumble sound like a voice. People won't know who's talking
Downside: Might get scolding from the people around U about mumbling.



7. Use your face (facial expression)

- non verbal communication at it's best. Like the comunication with the eyes. This requires plenty of practice. Practicing in front of the mirror work best. U wouldn't want to pass the wrong message now would U?

Upside: One look at your face and people would know what U want

Downside: Too much wrinkles too little time.







And that is all... a little boring eh? welll too bad... I shall split now and allow some other budak bore U... hahhaa
