Personal Speech Tomorrow!

I have to give a speech tomorrow.

I'm really nervous.

We had to write an essay about an event that changed us and/or our life.

I wrote about moving.  My family actually just moved to where we live now about a month ago.  It was the first time I've moved in my entire life, so it was a big deal.  Leaving everyone and everything I knew was not easy. So at least my topic should be pretty good.

I'm actually not all that bad at speaking in front of a class.  Usually.  I haven't had to since we moved.  I started thinking that maybe I was just really good at public speaking before because I had literally grown up with the entire school.  I felt like I knew everyone.  Even though there were over 2,000 students.

At my new school, I barely even know the the names of the kids who sit around me.

So I'll be far from comfortable.

I guess I just need to really practice and hope for the best.

Wish me luck!
