Persuasive Speech- Living in the Country is the Best
Ah finally did my last speech with Ms. Julie. We did in on living in the country as opposed to the city. A giant thanks to Julie she did a lot of the work and did an amazing job. She was probably the best pick as a partner. I had no nerves at all when I got up in front of the class and im really glad. This class was a success cause I defiantly feel like now I know what I am doing. Thanks for all the great feedback guys! Today is the last day to do the persuasive speeches I believe so good luck to all of those who are left in the class. Take a deep breath and if your anything like me say a little prayer.

Prayer is my secret power
When I give a speech I have one not so secret weapon. . .I pray. God has always been a huge part of my life and with Him I know that all things are possible. I’m not the best when it come to presenting in front of a room of people. I don’t know. I always want to make a good impression on new people, cause as we all know a first impression sticks with a person. So basically I get all jittery and stuttery. The thing is I start to pray and everything just changes. I get up there and as soon as I start to speak all nerves vanish.

At Ease with Demonstration Speech
Out of the three speeches we’ve accomplished in this class I’m going to have to say that this was my favorite. Even though my original speech was going to be over how to change the oil in a car, the weather wasn’t exactly willing. The further we get into this quarter the closer I have come to know my class mates and my comfort with public speaking has really grown. When I gave my demonstration speech I felt completely at ease, no worries at all. I enjoyed speaking on how do to a simple task cause I learned a lot about kool-aid while also making something I love. Thanks for all the feed back it really helped.

Fear that comes with Freedom
According to the first amendment we are given the right of freedom of speech. The thing is, will you take that freedom. Speech is something so simple, it is you talking. How could something that is supposed to be so easy be so difficult for so many people?
I myself absolutely love to talk. Words come so naturally but when it comes to talking in front of a large crowd I flip out. My grandma always told me not to worry what others thought and I thought I didn’t, but what this class has made me realize is I do. I worry of rejection from my classmates. I fear not being accepted. We are given this grand right of speech but it instills so much fear in us, which it was never intended to. With the help of this class I plan to use what I’ve learned to be able to spread my beliefs use my freedom and not worry what other think.
