This class was really loaded with useful information, especially our textbook; I really liked it. I've mentioned this in a previous post, but the outlines to speeches really did wonders for me so I'll definitely be applying those in the future. Before I continue on and forget though, congrats to everyone on getting through the class and thanks to Carol for being a cool professor!
Besides a lot of the how-to-prepare-a-speech tips from class and our textbook, I think I'll remember not to procrastinate on assignments, especially oral presentations. I don't know if anyone else was in a similar predicament, but it can be very stressful trying to prepare a speech in like four or five days (at least for me). I don't like stress in general so I'll try to remember what it was like rushing through the creation of a speech. Procrastinating on papers and tangible projects is one thing, but speeches are totally different because you have to practice! The rehearsing of the speech is probably one of the most important things too. Anyway, those are the things I'll take from this class into my future endeavors.
Haha I can't believe were doing our final blogs. I think I procrastinated more than you did ;) and it's definitely not a good idea, but what are you going to do when you need your sleep. your speeches were always so organized it didn't seem like you procrastinated at all! You should be proud of the speeches you gave because they were definitely some of the best speeches I heard in the class. Stress is just there to show how hard you tried to achieve something you want, but don't ever let it get to you it can have horrible side effects. Anyways, you did great and good luck on the finals!
