I just finished a short term class: Speech. You know it's that dreaded speech class that everyone takes last. . I took it as short term (3 weeks) for my first fall semester just to get over it. I have other classes too beside that so taking a short term class sounds smart right???
eeeh wrong.
The first time I enrolled for college, some classmates asked me if I have taken Speech already...I said "No" because it's my first time. I haven't taken a lot of classes yet. And after I say "No" their face expression exudes negativity, disgust, or even sadness (aaawwwwww you poor thing) that kind of thing hahaha.....
Why? why is Speech class the scariest?
I am a shy person when it comes to talking in front of an audience, and if there is anything that I can do to avoid taking speech class, I would. My cheeks turn red and my palms sweat..hahaha But I have no choice, but to stand up and act as if I am not afraid to speak in front of the class. Besides its just a small class, not the world. And I need to pass it. So no choice.
So I took it as a short term class err 3 weeks I think, but goodness the amount of talking that I have done was unbelievable...I stood up in front of that class for god knows what how many times, and because it is a small class, the teacher I guess wanted us (the students) to speak and be comfortable more.. so he gave us a lot of speech assignments.... Aside from the three important speeches that I had to do, the extra assignments are extra credit-- I was seriously running out of ideas what to talk about heck-I even had a speech about ramen noodles, one speech I had was about hierarchy of needs which is ok i think, but the worst one I got was an impromptu interview. Oh. my. this interview made my heart beat so fast.
It may sound something fun, interview, speeches, but actually it's not.. Everyone of us took it seriously, no one was smiling or laughing and everyone wants to pass that class, even if the teacher was nice it is still a speech class, we still had to stand in front of that class. And on top of that, its a short term class, so we had to do essays once a week too and worksheets almost everyday.
short term speech class.... no thank you... but lets look on the bright side..It's over.over.over.
P.S he also had to video us while doing our speeches. (added to my nervousness)
Thank. you. I'm done with speech class!
fugghedaboutit now.
