Introduction Speech Reflection
On Monday, February 2, I gave my first speech for this IPC class. The speech was supposed to be derived from what makes me unique. At first, I had trouble deciding what it was exactly, that made me unique from everyone else. Then almost out of nowhere I just remembered that I went through numerous serious surgeries and that would set me apart from others. The fact that I broke my humerus tied the whole speech together with the fact that I still keep it humorous despite all of my setbacks.
When it came to the actual delivery of the speech, I was ready and confident about giving the speech until it was almost my turn. By that time I started to get the butterflies in my stomach and my nerves began to build. Once it was my turn I got up there and I could feel my voice shake a bit but other than that I felt like I was able to convey my message well. I feel the main thing I need to improve for the next speech is more preparation before I actually give the speech.
