So..I've been watching vlogs uploaded by this girl Natalie, who has a channel on youtube called communitychannel. I think I've mentioned her on my blog before but anyway, the reason I'm talking about her videos is because I'm thinking of what to write on my blog in HER voice.
I'm not sure if it's just me or if this occurs to everyone, but the way I think, the way I form ideas in my head is by talking to myself, in my head. There's a voice that speaks in my head when I think, and for some people that "voice" might always sound the same, or it might sound like yourself, but for me, the strangest things happen.
I've been watching Natalie's vlogs for about half an hour maybe and as I'm typing this, HER voice is the one "speaking" to me, not my own. I realise that this happens, this change of voice/ voice in my head which is not my own happens to me quite frequently when I've watched or heard someone else speak for a considerable amount of time.
If I watched a British show and then stop to think about something, the voice in my head would take on a British accent and would sound like somebody's voice on that particular British show. If I were watching a Cantonese drama, I would think in Cantonese, with a "Hong-Kee" accent and so on and so forth.
I'm not sure If this is suppose to happen, like it's a natural thing that happens to everybody but I'm just...intrigue I suppose. Fascinated that I can think in a different accent but when I try to speak I just sound...normal..

Sometimes telemarketers can be annoying.
I read a youtube comment -this guy said what he usually does to get the telemarketers off his case is to ask the person on the phone out on a date.
Wonder if that works..hmm....should try that sometime
