SPEECH PLAN

Title: Drink moderately. Walwal once in a while.

Specific Speech Purpose: To persuade my audience that there are benefits of being walwal.
Statement: Being walwal has benefits which contributes to character building and adds up to
your life experience.

INTRODUCTION
I. Attention Step

If you dont drink, how will your friends know you love them at 2 in the morning?
Have you ever got drunk and just let go? Let go of everything. No inhibitions. All of
your what ifs are now put into reality. Seems scary, right? But when you are with
the right company, being scared is not an option.

II. Clarification Step

What exactly is walwal? Ive asked people what it meant to them. Someone
told me that its a short term for walang-wala. It means to get wasted. Similarly,
most of the people I have asked said that it is drinking to intoxicate at levels beyond
personal tolerance. While some defined it as socializing with others and doing
activities you would otherwise not do under normal circumstances and not
necessarily getting drunk. I think it is synonymous to YOLO (You Only Live Once), or
better yet, YOLO is the umbrella term, and walwal is under it.

BODY

a. It is an avenue to release stress.
b. It is a mood booster.

i. You get to know your limitations.
ii. You get to know that you can connect to people in different ways.

CONCLUSION
I. Summary Step
There are times that you will regret the stupid things you did the morning after,
but what is worse is that you did not take a risk. You did not take the chance when it
is right there at the tip of your nose. I am not encouraging you to be an alcoholic,
but what is one night for you to just get real and let go of things to the all of the days
of your life lived sober. Remember this: Drink moderately. Walwal once in a while.

- Ewan feel ko naman everyone has experienced walwal? Like you might walwal everyweek or pwede
rin once in a while lang. Pero feel ko at least once in your lifetime kailangan mo siya iexperience
HAHAHA
- Kasi some people it's already part of them like walwal is life for them
- But some people they don't like, or they're scared to try. Feel ko they have to at least try it once para
they know diba
- Kasi why do you not like something when you haven't even tried it????
- Also feel ko naman every person has a different version of walwal
- It might be drinking, partying. Kasi that's the normal definition of walwal eh

good???? KASI ISN'T THAT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PARTY OR DRINK, YOU BECOME HAPPY
