Were you scared? Last time I did was last year when I graduated from college as Valedictorian. I was so scared so I went across the street and had a couple of shots before the time came so I was more relaxed. In the end it turned out good and I had people crackin' up laughing and telling me my speech was good afterward. It made me feel good and realize that speaking in front of people isn't so bad (especially after a couple of shots). :)

I gave a public lecture at a school near Bangalore last week on the subject: SET YOUR AIMS NOW AND YOU WILL ACHIEVE IN COUPLE OF YEARS.
I have been lecturing on various topics pertaining to Youth from 1980. This is my pet subject.

The last time I did that was in my senior year of high school. Yeah I was really nervous, I'm usually a shy person anyways. It was for my U.S. History class.
I've never like getting all of that attention. I think Speech was the worst class I've ever had lol.

When I had economics class 2 yrs ago. It was nervewracking but I think I got through it after awhile. It was for a presentation we were doing on Natural Resources.

That would be a hard speech for me. Mine was just on my experience at the school I went to. :)
