I hate speeches.



Oh how I LOATHE speech class. I really, really do. It's bad enough that it's the same instructor from my marketing class, and that he's a complete moron... but I have TWO speeches to prepare for right now -_-';;

The first is a persuasive speech. Easy? Kinda. Do I wanna do it? Hell no. To make things worse, we didn't get to pick out own topics. I was given the topic of "The Electoral College and why it should be eliminated." Basically, I have to persuade people to want to abolish the electoral college, whether I agree with it or not. Thankfully, I do! Still, it sucks.

This second speech, however, is far worse. I have to give a portfolio presentation. I -hate- portfolio presentations. Why you ask? It's basically like getting up in front of a group of people, showing off you work, and glorifing yourself without sounding like an egotistical ass. I -really- hate it, because I personally feel my work could be better, no matter the praise someone else gives it, I always can find something wrong. But no, I have to put those feelings aside and shamelessly self promote myself infront of seventeen other people, without sounding like I'm shamelessly promoting my work. ARG! I've done them before infront of one person, and it's not SO bad. It's more personal, and I feel more comfortable with it. And it's not like I have a fear of speaking in front of a larger body of people; it's just I don't like oh-so-many people sitting there, judging my work, and trying to tell them all that it's awesome when I don't think it is.

GAH. Screw speeches.

At least I have a couple of weeks to prepare for the second one.

Ugh... and I have to work tonight -_-';;
