I am such a good public speaker
Well guys, I did it. I finally gave my first toastmasters speech. I was so nervous about it. I kept putting it off, because I didn’t want to do it. It is only four minutes but I churned about it for weeks.
It’s just the first speech, we have to give like a gazillion more. But it’s nice to have this first one out of the way. And it went so well! I was surprised. I have a friend/coworker in the group and I knew she would like it. But everyone loved it. They loved me AND my speech. I even won the “best speech” vote for the day. I feel like sally field.
The title was “how to give your first toastmasters speech” and it was all about… giving your first toastmasters speech.
So it was real dumb, but I made people laugh and that’s all I care about anyway. you can read it here if you want. I referenced a few other members’ speeches in my own, which won’t make sense to you, but the group loved it.
Even though I’m trying to eat better (shut up), I also like to reward myself with food (shut up), so I treated myself to a chocolate malt today (shut up). Tomorrow I’ll treat myself to a salad.
