When was the last time you had to speak in front of a group? How did you feel?
Goodness, it was so long ago, I can't even remember, but I can tell you how I feel because it's always the same.
Firstly, I was nervous as all hell. Probably obsessing over saying the right things and making all my points effectively and making sure I wouldn't have to say "tests", "rests", or any other word that would give away my lisp.
Then, while giving the speech, I could only think about how stupid I looked and I bet I probably imagined all the mean things people were thinking about me...
...I don't like speaking in front of people, does it show?
Okay, so the reason my mother picked me up was because Sarah called and told her to. I wasn't allowed to tell Sarah I knew when I was at her house but I'm out now and I can.
Well, that's the last mention of her in my journal. I'm going about pretending she doesn't exist.
I ended up staying at the Grayson County Shelter...omg that place is Hell on Earth. If anyone happens to be reading this and you're a board member or you know a board member or you donate...come talk to me, 'cause I got dirt to dish.
But, right now I'm staying the night with my mom and a guy she met a few days ago...starting the dangerous life now! *grin*
I'm on my way to my grandmother's and hopefully I'll be able to have internet access there...depends on whether or not my brother will let me use his computer or if I can find a place to set mine up.
