Wish me luck with my speech on diabetes.
This friday I will be giving an informative speech for my communications class. Its the first speech I have ever given so I'm kinda nervous but it helps that i chose a topic I know alot about. DIABETES :) More specificly it is on How Type 1 and Type 2 are different. Right now I'm in my room practicing it as well as working at my outline and the written version. I'm kinda tired cause I had a math test this morning and spent the afternoon doing Psychology but the time is ticking on closer to friday to I have to get it ready! It's a possible 60 points so I'm very concerned with doing well!!
Hugs to all :) Leanna

You go girl!! In my performing years, I had 2 little mantras that helped me---one was from some great acting teacher whose name, unfortunately, has disappeared down the memory abyss: "It's not about banishing the butterflies; it's about training them to flutter in formation!" The second I would say to myself in the wings with a deep, cleansing breath: "It's not about me, it's about The Dance.".....For you that might mean some variation on "it's about teaching and helping others." Then you can give yourself over to the moment with what I call a True Impulse.....

Well, you have chosen an interesting subject there(at least to us ;-) ). Diabetes is a never-ending learning experience for sure. I'm sure that you'll make a Wonderful "Diabetes Educator". Good Luck getting the 60.
