Two weeks later? My sense of time's going out the window...
In T-minus one week, I will be giving a persuasive speech, for which I've decided to try to persuade people to get a Nissan Xterra/Frontier whenever they have to get a new vehicle. On the surface, this seems like it'll be an easy speech for me to give. I mean... I love my Xterra and have been nothing but impressed by it since getting it. And, I also already tend to brag about my Xterra to anyone who dares to bring up the subject of vehicles with earshot of me.
But, the same could be said about my love (and obsession) for nature and all the knowledge about it I've gained over the years. And, we all know how my nature speech went a couple weeks back. Granted, I got an 80 percent overall on it, and my grade was really only knocked down from a 90+ percent because I forgot to verbally cite my sources and went twenty seconds over time.
Oh well...
It's not my grade I'm worried about, however. I proved that I can still give a decent speech even when it feels like I'm about to meet Jesus Christ in the middle of it (even if I'd flunked the speech, I wouldn't have cared as the speech would've been done with). Rather, I just don't want to go through that shit again. Ever. In front of my peers or not.
