Humane

Before: Before the speech I was relaxed. I got to class early and got all my pics set up, reminded myself of the timing, and edited my note cards. I knew last time I had to rush at the end and since my outlines were the same length I decided to cut out points to make sure I got in my ending.

During: I was as usual nervous and not very comfortable. I talked much faster than I did at home. This made me more nervous so I talked even faster. I then kept thinking, Hey! I can show the pics one by one more slowly and take up time! But before I noticed what I was doing I sped through the pictures and finished the speech. I knew I was short and I was mad at myself for cutting down the note cards before class.

After: I was upset that I did not do any where near as well as I had hoped. This was disheartening. I still got a good grade. But this just has not been my day.
