Today I had to present my informative speech in my communications class. I am perhaps the most shy person on the planet and I absolutely dread public speaking. I would rather write a 20 page paper than publicly speak for five minutes. I was so miserable all day just thinking about it.
Not only did I have to worry about my speech but I also had a Fine Arts test this morning which probably was not my best seeing as how all I could think about was my speech. I practiced all throughout the day, walking around mouthing my speech looking like a crazy person talking to myself. I arrived to my communications class dressed in my business casual attire and scared out of my mind.
As I sat through my peers' speeches I was trembling in my seat waiting for my turn. When the moment finally came wasn't that bad. The time flew by and I got pretty good reactions from the crowd. I did my best and I think I did good enough to make an A which is all that truly matters to me.
