By now I'm sure you have seen other bloggers 'round the blogosphere doing video blogs, otherwise known as "vlogs". I love watching the vlogs of the bloggers I've been following since the beginning of time. You finally get to hear the voice behind the blog. I've seen a few "accent vlogs" now...the blogger reads off a list of words for the sole purpose of sharing their beautiful (and sometimes annoying and unattractive)accent with their readers. There's also a list of questions to answer. It's only a fraction of the...dumb-ity-ness...you think it is. I pwomise. Here's mine.
*I totally don't pronounce "sure" the way I just claimed to. You might catch that little hilarious bit of stupidity.
** I don't think my voice could be any more boring. I'm accentless. That's no fun.
***PPPPPPSSSSSS. Here are the words/questions if you want to DO THIS ACCENT VLOG AND PLEASE PLEASE DO, AND SHARE IT WITH ME SO I DON'T FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE IDIOT. Don't leave me hanging, guys. Just don't.

It's safe to say you do not have an accent + you are pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt's sal-mon, but I'll let you slide.
And it's definitely a buggy.
Also, I hope I'm not the annoying/unattractive accent. That would be embarrassing.
I totally get why you were nervous doing yours. I had plenty of awkward long silences in mine.
ReplyDeleteYou are perfectly charming. I actually haven't heard any unattractive vlogger voices yet. I'll let you know when I do.
Whew. That's all I needed to know.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, damn awkwardness. It was like all my coolness left the building as soon as I pushed record.
