Never in my whole life did I dream of becoming a teacher. Singing in front of a bar full of drinking people is different from talking in front of a room full of serious people. It’s more intense, more demanding of confidence… it’s creepy.
Today, I had to do just that - twice! I am the temp trainer and I had to conduct a hands on training with the new employees. It felt awkward and thankfully I pulled it off just nicely (I think I did, so shut up :P)
And of course I’m also temporarily the team leader and I held a meeting regarding new policies and stuff like that to my team mates.
Boy oh boy oh boy, do I even look respectable (is there such a term? or am I thinking respectful? anyway)? I was wearing a really cute blouse but I had faded jeans that were ripped on the knees and a really grunged old pair of sneakers.
Yeah, imagine your boss or your superior looking like that and you wearing business casual. that’s me ![]()
Wicked day this was, I know I’m awake but I think I’m having a nightmare with all these teacher stuff, being on the spot light, head of the conference things happening… Lord, I’d like to wake up now please?

Public speaking is somehting that can be learned. I know the feeling redQueen.
On Friday, I’ll have to speak a few minutes to a crowd at a Gala event. Oh boy, just thinking about it makes me nervous. I’ll have to calm down.

Yeah I guess all it takes is calming down. I made it through barely unscathed but I thought I’ve had enough of public speaking during college and highschool that I won’t want those now that I’m working.
I couldn’t imagine them naked, that’s disgusting.
and public speaking is definitely different from singing in a band for a drunk crowd, you can’t tease them with your skirt or flirty looks 
darn executive/business ladder.

I remember my best school exposé. We were two and prepared for it about 15 minutes prior to it. It was Summer and boring as heck. I had never felt so relaxed! We got praised on our presentation skills and preparation!
