it's only Wednesday, speeches are easy. Why is everyone streessing out about them?

I have to give a 3-4 minute informative speech next wednesday, I chose Pearl Harbor, because JM and I visited the memorial when we were in Hawaii over the summer. If I was in your shoes and it was emphasized to pick a topic of my interest I would totally do something car related. I thought of explaining how an engine works and go into the basics but I think everyone including the teacher wouldn't care and my grade would suffer.

Good point... mine certainly did :rofl:

thats what i feel would happen if i did anything like that so i have to do some dumbed down topic

mine was supposed to be on monday... and i havent started it :-? ... luckily due to some techinical difficulties with the computers in the public speaking lab i got out of possibly having to go on monday... im taking my chances with not having to go today because he kidna gave out a list of who is going when and i dont think ill be going today but you never know...

My teacher did the list ******** too... their reasoning is, you should be prepared to go whenever :-?

I agree. I made them up while I drank before class. taking freshman speech in my final semster ftw, lol.

my final speech i talked about my job. don't really have to research anything and its easy to talk about.

Euthanasia

do a speech ala tucker max

About why our econmoy is failing and that the price of gas caused consumers to not be able to save as much money as they could have spent that money in small and big business and how by lowering the price of gas below $2 help keep black friday sales near normal.

you get my point

Techno.

already did a speech on the economy....

someone is doing one on break dancing...albeit not related to techno i think its too close to the subject

Cooking.

i think i am just going to take my chances on not being prepared today and hope its not my turn!

Great approach to life. I hope it lets you go far, and accomplish all your goals!

haha yeah... im not normally like this but the whole thanksgiving break thing threw me off my game this year and i completely forgot about it

Do something your familiar, when I took it a few years ago I did it on photo development with a short slide of the step by step process. Since I worked in a lab it made things very easy.

lol try having your own business, working as a shift manager, having your gf of 3 years dump u the first few weeks of the semester...that threw my game off

but once one door closes another one opens and u gotta get back on the horse..and by get back on the horse i mean meet up with madd sorrority sluts :-)

Terriost?

the benefits of steroids and how badly the media skews the facts about them

I wouldnt exactly call them health food either :lol:

just an update... i lucked out and didnt have to go... im still deciding what to write about...have a few ideas now though

but they do more good than harm ;)
