Speech... *sigh* :( Well...At least I have a good topic!! :)

Oh no!! Term four.Which equals to... Speech!!!(AGAIN) I was trying to come up with a good excuse for not doing my speech, like : I already did it last year or awwww sorry but I will be going on holiday early and it is SUCH a pity to miss speech.(notice the sacrcasm...) I am actually going on holiday early, but sadly, not early enough :( I still haven't told you what my topic is, but I'm sure most of you already know.It's... JOHNNY DEPP!!! He is definately my most favourite actor because I think he's just I don't know, Flawless? Is that a good word in this situation? I can't decide. (And that is exactly why I think I'm going to fail at speech.Whenever I get in front of the class to do any kind of presentation I always freeze and no words come out of my mouth... :( Anyway, I won't be here to watch the speech finalists because I'm getting an early holiday!! I don't expect to get into the finals(and I don't want to). I just hope that people in my class who are listening to it won't fall asleep in the middle of it, or find it "creepy" in any way. My aspects that I'm focusing on are : Firstly, Eyecontact. I always either stare out the window or at my teacher because every time I look at my friends the expression they have on their face just makes me burst out laughing and I get a bit out of control, so I don't know how I'm going to last that 3-4 minutes. Then, there's the speed. I ALWAYS present my speech WAY too fast because I think I can get it over and done with sooner. But I was wrong. It just makes it worse because I make loads more mistakes and my 3 minute speech ends up being 1 and a half minutes. :( Also, no one can actually understand what I'm saying. Lastly, when I'm up there I can never stand in a comfortable position and I just look very stiff.
By the way, I have no idea how to work on those aspects, cause I can't help it... But I'm sure a lot of people will do very well on their speech.(Not as sucky as me) Well, my topic IS Johnny Depp :o and that means I'll have something to work for!! :)
P.S Good luck to everyone!!

  6. Flawless? Hmmm I'm not sure about that. If I had to describe someone I always talk about I would probably say....breath-taking. Yeah I'm weird like that....
