Speech Class
I don't like to get in front of people and talk. I really don't like it. Despite my disdain for public speaking, I have actually been doing quite well in my Effective Communication class. Last week for our speeches we were given the choice of an Introduction, Presentation of an award, or a Eulogy. We were told we could be as creative as we wanted to be. I chose to a Eulogy. I chose to eulogize the Stay-Puft Marshmallow man. I actually wrote my speech out before class and practiced it. When I got to class I heard what some of the other people did and I came to the conclusion that my speech was not creative or funny enough. Although I had one written and practiced, I made the risky move of improvising. I completely made it up when I got to the podium. Amazingly, the class and the teacher responded very well! We got our grades back tonight and I got a 100! Instructor said it was, "Very creative, very good, and very funny!" What? I'm pretty proud of myself, but I still hate public speaking

Repercussions
Today is a brand new day. While yesterday is gone, I still have to live with the choices that were made. I want to feel sorry for myself, but I know that I have no one to blame except myself. I have tons of debt. The only way to get out of it is to get a second job. I will absolutely have no time for my family. I don't see any other way. I have engaged myself in several online ventures. We'll see how motivated I can be with them. Anyway, I hope you all are having a great day.

First Post
I need to write more. I have so many thoughts and ideas running through my head. I need to release them and stop holding on to so much. I don't know if I can keep up with posting everyday, but I will try. I hope you can find something you like with this blog. Some inspiration, find your way back to good, whatever you are looking for.
