Stick a fork in me- I'm done!

I was so hoping that my speech professor would ask who wanted to give their speech first today, because even though it's totally out of my character to raise my hand and volunteer to do such a thing, I wanted to get it over with.

And I did! Woo hoo!

I think I did ok, though I started getting nervous when I got to class because I couldn't find anybody else that actually wrote out a speech like I did. Everybody else just jotted down notes on note cards.

And being the nerd that I am, mine were typed out on note cards.

But oh well. I'm done!

Unfortunately, I do have to watch my speech online and critique myself. She said that it would be painful, and before even logging in I can tell you that it's gonna be.

But did I mention that I'm done?

I have to admit that I totally kissed up to the teacher after my speech was over, though that wasn't really my intention. (But if it helps, so what!)

She commented on a book I mentioned in my speech (Francine Rivers' Redeeming Love), and as I was putting up my stuff and she was in the back of the class, she and I shared our mutual interest in Francine. I told her about her new book that I just read and she said she hadn't read it it. So I offered to bring it next week for her to borrow.

And she said yes. So you better believe I've already packed that book in my bag for class on Monday.

Until then, I will be studying, going to lunch with friends, and hopefully squeezing in a day at the pool if the sun ever decides to come out again.

Have a great Thursday!
