I was thinking about adding some tongue twisters in to my voice training routine, since they’ll have different sets of sounds than what I normally use in conversation. Here’s one for each day of the next week.

Monday

To sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, In a pestilential prison, with a lifelong lock, Awaiting the sensation of a short, sharp shock, From a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block

Tuesday

Six sick hicks nick six slick bricks with picks and sticks

Wednesday

Fred fed Ted bread and Ted fed Fred bread

Thursday

A blanched black bug bleeds black blood but what color blood does a bland blue bug bleed?

Friday

The great Greek grape growers grow great Greek grapes

Saturday

If you must cross a coarse cross cow across a crowded cow crossing, cross the cross coarse cow across the crowded cow crossing carefully

Sunday

Luke’s duck likes lakes. Luke Luck licks lakes. Luke’s duck licks lakes. Duck takes licks in lakes Luke Luck likes

If you want something normal sounding to say instead, try the Harvard Sentences. Or read a book to someone!

    Today was a good day. Saw all my favorite work peeps today, and got to hang out one on one with two of them I’m out to. Which was very nice.

    Still have been on the verge of tears all day and idk why :cricri I guess just E.

    It is frustrating to me how awkward and unsure I feel about how to talk with people about it, what to talk about, I don’t know if that makes sense.

    Its funny to me how many of the people I like don’t like each other. The two people I got to spend time with today and was super excited about don’t like each other. (idk if this comes across the right way) I kinda wonder if I get along with kinda unlikeable people, or at least like people that others struggle to get along with.
