Speech Class=Self Esteem

I'm going to be very sad in a month when i leave my speech class and algebra teacher. i've already talked about my algebra class, but i don't think i've ever mentioned my speech class. its at night, so i'm the only high school student in there. none of the other people in the class had ever heard of pseo, so they're all amazed that i'm taking college classes while still in hs (most of them are adults who are returning to college). i love that class, because every time i give a speech, everyone is like 'wow, i can't believe you're still in high school' 'i never would have been able to do that at sixteen- heck, i can't do it now' and so on and so forth. they act as though i'm god's gift to studenthood, but its fun. its also amazing because you see people like tom giving these awesome speeches, where you don't think they can be at all nervous and you'd think they were stand up comics for a living, but they think you did better than them, or so and so did better than them, and you see that you're just doing the same self criticism that they are, and you're not really as bad as you think. for example, i could feel my voice shaking when i gave my speech, but not one person noticed that other than me. its really neat.

I'm in my own world, but it's okay, they know me here.
