Speech today

Today in speech class we are giving introductory speeches, introducing each other to the class. Mine sounds as though it is going to turn out lame, Lame, LAME.

sorry.

I'm sitting here at school and I feel like I've done everything I can to prepare for this speech. The guy I'm introducing "Rupert" gave me his work phone and work email, so I'm at a loss as to what to say. We conducted interviews last class period, so I have some information on him, but we are supposed to begin our speech with an ice breaker and I can't come up with anything funny or even mildly amusing to catch people's attention. Since I couldn't get a hold of "Rupert", I can't get any ideas from him either.

If you can't tell I'm a bit bummed out about it all.

Anyways, on a lighter note: I'm leaving the Yoga class that I really enjoy so that I can attend a different one in the afternoon sandwiched between two of my other classes and eating up my study time for my Government class. This was all Danielle's idea and don't get me wrong, I understand the sense of it because we will not have to get up as early to come to school, but I like this instructor and just wish things could stay the same.

There, I'm still in my bad funk.

Let's see... some good news...hmm, can't think of any.

Okay, Next weekend I get to go to the avian seminar in Houston. That's exciting. Also, I begin house sitting for my former American government professor, Marianne and her fiancé while they are in Europe for a month. That is also exciting.

Alright, well it's 10:30AM and I need to go so that I can get ready for my speech class.

bye,
Christine
