Speech #1 felt like it went really well. I knew exactely what I wanted to say and I felt pretty confident when I went up there. Giving a speech about myself is very easy, but when I have to give a speech about a specific topic that I don’t know much about or am not comfortable with, that’s when I get really nervous. I do not consider my self to be good at speaking, I stumble over words a lot and I seem to say “um” a lot. Also, something weird that always seems to happen when I give a speech is that I seem to have a hard time really remembering what exactely happened when I was giving it. When I finish and I sit down and try to think about what exactely I did, I find it very hard to remember. I know I definitely have a long way to go before I become a good public speaker.
