Flash back when I was around standard 5 or 6, I was just a boy.
I wasn't sure whether I was undergoing puberty at that time, but I remembered some friends used to say I sounded like a sissy.
Seriously, I was quite affected. In my heart I wished I could grow up faster and turn into a real man. Sometimes I listened to my own voice, I recorded my own voice and played it back..., then couldn't help but curse myself for sounding like a toad.
You know sometimes, when you speak, what you heard of what you speak is different from what others would hear (slightly different, I guess?). For me I think it sounds totally different.
Today while I was doing some house chores, I listened carefully to my voice as I speak. And I still think what I heard of my voice today is somewhat the same as what I heard last time when I was still a boy.
The only difference is, nowadays people say I have a deep voice, which I don't really agree, because that's not exactly what I heard...
I am unsure whether anyone has the same problem as me? haha
Anyway I think I have grown up, though definition of a "man" is quite subjective and I can't really be sure whether I could be regarded as one, but yeah at least I don't sound like a toad anymore...
