Before: I wrote my speech while at work. I had the hardest time trying to come up with objects because I really don't do much. I don't have many hobbies and I don't have much of a social life. I basically just go to work, clean the house, walk the dogs, make dinner, clean up, go to bed, repeat. That's my life six days a week so its hard to find objects to describe an average life. So I did my best to make my self sound slightly interesting. I went to school early and rehearsed in my car and I was at about five minuets and fifteen seconds. I thought I was was doing well.
During: During my speech I was very nervous so I read off of the cards and I forgot the majority of the things I was going to say that were off the cards. I felt that my face was red so I was trying to not look like a tomato. I also felt my hands get very clammy so I was afraid of people seeing me sweat. It was not pleasant. I also could not find the pen which was part of my speech when I tried to talk about it... But when I had moved on I saw the pen, but after that it was to late. I just am not excited to do that again.
After: After my speech I called my boyfriend to talk to him. We discussed how I thought I did on my speech and it was not well. Next time I think I will spend more time on organization and making sure I keep eye contact. I will be sure to make sure I look at the rubric given to me after my speech and make sure that the issues I had today will not be repeated again. I am almost done writing my next speech so hopefully spending a lot of time on it will get me an A (which would be awesome).
