This has been a pretty crazy week and it's only Thursday! I've joined a production of Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare and have read through the script nearing 4 times now. That's more reading than I've done in like the past 4 months...I love actors, they make life interesting and worth going to the practices.
On top of hours of rehearsal everyday, 6 exams were given to me. So, that wasn't so great, but I think they went well.
I've done some public speaking in the last few days and received high praise from my peers and instructor. As I stood up at the podium, looking out at everyone, I thought to myself, "I like this. This is fun. This feels good." I love public speaking. Most people hate it. Why do I like it? I like it because I'm such a soft-spoken person, my voice is never heard. When I get up behind that podium though, people have to respect me, they have to listen. I've trained myself to become quite decent at the skill of short speeches. People will respect you if you make no mistakes. They will see that there is something in you. That is only part of the many reasons I love public speaking.
