A few hours ago in our Speech Comm class I was assigned to make an Impromptu speech.
" What would you like to become famous " I only had 2 minutes to prepare.
I did my best but I guess my best wasn't good enough.
I did find ways to become different, segue greeting my classmate who is celebrating birthday, it didn't effect.
My preparation was overtime, when it's my turn I was still outlining my ideas.
I asked for a pen so I can write it down on the board, but in fact I just want to hold on something to gain confidence. I also asked my classmates to bear with me because this is my first time to do this. Above all, I confused my beautiful classmates.
Anyway I started it this way I said I would like to become famous as the veggie blogger , my thoughts started to become disorganize. I stuttered, I became nervous and I didn't really like my whole speech. Anxiety is my name. Instead of emphasizing what I would like to become famous for I ended discussing the advantages of becoming vegetarian. I could have said that I would like to become a famous blogger who blogs about the benefits of being a vegetarian. And then discuss the benefits of being vegetarian, then conclude with when I become famous.................
I think that I should work on organizing my thoughts. Here are some impromptu speech tips :
- Arrive early and relax
- Breathe normally
- Focus, jot down in mind some ideas
- Provide ideas like What, when, where or 1,2,3 something that captures the audiences attention.
- Formulate a very interesting thesis statement.
- Find time to practice speaking alone
Despite of my desperation I still feel good because even if I was not able to speak the way it should be I was able to tell everyone what I would wanted to say. The next time around I will really try my best to work hard on it.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Hey, I can't view your site properly within Opera, I actually hope you look into fixing this.
this post is very usefull thx!
Hi, I just read texts on your blog and I became interested in the topic. I like your site and I am thinking whether I could use your words in my work? Would it be possible? If yes, please contact with me.Thanks.
brand-new heard of the fresh Kinect? Its actually awesome! I never had so much fun playing game titles before, eventhough I might call myself the hardcore player in which usually plays game titles like Call of Duty and so on. The Kinect is definitely so different than anything I have ever before played before. your motion controles work really well, and not just that, but not required to use a controller to learn is the personification connected with freedom! No infuriating button smashing any longer, a single word will do! You should think about getting a Kinect!.

Excellent information here. This interesting post made me smile. Maybe if you throw in a couple of pics it will make the whole thing more interesting.
If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this also - taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get anything done… Regards…
I have been searching the internet for this, and I am glad I found it here! Thanks. Site has been added to my RSS feed for later browsing.
I know it sounds crazy but this reminded me of Abraham Lincoln's: "Everybody likes a compliment."
