Well today was the day I gave my speech in Business Communications. My topic was the lack of mental health hospitals here in Arkansas. I think it went well I didn't say umm or well which we aren't supposed to do. I did almost forget my last point which was a couple of examples of people who died waiting to get into the hospital. Ruth told me I did good and I didn't really feel all that nervous. I guess my night of relaxation before my speech did me a good thing. I am just glad its over with and I don't have to give anymore speeches this semester. Next semester when I run for President of our student organization I will have to give a campaign speech but that is nothing...I am confident I can do it now.

Good for you!!! The first and only time I tried that everything started going black. I sat down and tried to just end it but the teacher encouraged me and made me finish it. I have no clue what I ended up saying. LOL

I am almost over my fear of public speaking. My school has a student organization for us business and CIS students called Phi Beta Lambda...the post secondary version of Future Business Leaders of America. Anyway I am the parlimentarian and have to get up several times during our meetings to correct the rules being broken and in our last meeting I had to run the meeting because neither our President or our Vice Presidents were going to be there and that made me nervous but I did it and now next semester I am running for President. I told the advisor over the President my plans and she just smiled and said great maybe we'll get a President that is worth something. I was like wow and it made me feel good. Now if I could just keep that good feeling all the time.
