Loud

Why is it that I am so loud?  Is it my poor hearing?  Has being in a loud environment made me loud?  Is the loudness of Wuxiren making me loud?  Am I trying too hard to pronounce clearly for my students?  Am I trying to sound like a know-it-all professor?

My voice I am told booms.  Makes me bad company I suppose.

And to think there have been times in my life when I have been quiet.

It is something I will just have to work on.
