Well I really don’t know what to write about so here I go.
Yesterday as you all should know it was Veterans Day.
Our principle thought it would be a good idea instead of having another guest speaker for that day that he would have the student body do the presentation. Well I thought that would be a great idea, until I found out, I would be speaking at this thing.
Well I love talking you say. And yes I do but speaking in front of the entire high school isn’t what I was hoping for.
I mean yeah I could talk to a bunch of people I didn’t know and tell them about 9/11, but when I am speaking in front of my high school who know me, but I doubt I know them. Will being judging me on what I look like and if I make mistakes. I don’t like being judged and I could care less what they say. But when you have somebody you like sitting in the front row or maybe second row.
You would hate to mess up and be made fun of for it.
When I speak in front of a bunch of people I get nerves. My legs start to shake and I am afraid that I will lose my balance. But everybody gets nerves at one point or another. Right.
But all in all I did my speech and if I reached one person’s life out there that is great. And if I reached more well that is awesome. I just wanted to reach out and tell people at we have lost a lot of loved ones in these wars. And I am proud to live in a country where I know I will be safe. Because we have men and women fighting for us. And with that I am proud to be living in a country live the United States.
