so i said i had a 6 minute speech today, and i finally got it over w/~
it was actually a debate, and i had to refute someone. so she walked up and spoke first. and then it was my turn. 
so i walked up, and delivered my speech just as i practiced. my opponent totally wasn’t prepared, so she barely had anything to say back.
i’m just really glad that i was able to speak. although, i do admit that her not being prepared was a plus. so meanwhile, i’m just sitting there like:
i sound so cocky right now. OTL but anyways! thank u guys so much for your encouragement! i saw all ur guys’ replies (hwaitings!) last night and i felt so warm and fuzzy inside~ then it made me happy to practice even more~ so thank u guys so much~!!
