Public Speaking notes (feedback included)

[sweetgirl_19]

Thanks! Really helpful ideas. Esp. the "um" hint. I like...um...have a bad habit of, like, saying "um" like when I'm...um...stuck on an idea.
Outlined plan as follows:
1.) Visit link
2.) Study needed topics; research good speech forms
3.) Write practice speeches on topics provided; practice writing outlines for maxium speed
4.) Bribe (first choice), nag (second) or force (last resort) any victim on the radar (i.e. parents, siblings) to listen to my speeches--welcome all critiquing!

Any more ideas? Well, um:p ...thanks again! I feel the butterflies flittering away...
