When you give your speech just imagine the audience without their clothes. It will help you relax.

I agree with Fact, it makes you burst out laughing for no reason while doing it.

Well, I had my speech yesturday. All in all, it went well, even though I did go over the time limit, and did have a technilogical break down. First I forgot my flash drive, so (luckily) I had it saved on the Schools grading system. I got it up on to the screen and the images of the powerpoint we in the right spot, but the titles were half under the images for some reason. Not to mention it was on the internet instead of by itself...arg. The first time I clicked on the the slide to make the transition, favorites game up and wouldnt go away. I havent gotten a grade or the official time on it other than it was more than 7 mins. I wasnt nervous, but the words wouldnt come out at all. I half studdered a few of my words. Ill have my grade tomorrow and ill post it here as soon as I get to a computer.

Glad you were able to follow through with your speech. Now the next one will be easier. It helps to practice giving the speech on fellow students if they will cooperate with you.

well, I have my grade and I am NOT happy...7/10. I was expecting a 9 because I went over the time limit. He said I was not entusiastic enough...how am i supposed to be "enthusiastic" about something that killed my father?!?! He said my outline wasnt "proper". uhhh.... Im going to challenge the grade.
