I was going through some assignments from the past semester and I came across the last speech I wrote for my english class. It still makes me laugh so I thought I'd share it. I could't stop laughing the entire time I was presenting it. Enjoy
Uh-oh, I’m on Fire
Good afternoon. I’d like to welcome everybody to the annual fire prevention and safety seminar. The guest speaker today is our Commissioner of fire safety, Sparky, the fire breathing safety dragon. Sparky has been Commissioner for the last six hundred and sixty six years. Sparky decided he wanted to help with fire prevention after he accidentally burned down his preschool. Sparky realized that he could be an effective resource in discovering ways to protect and save people from fires. Some of his wonderful contributions leading to his becoming Commissioner are his help in testing fire retardant clothing. Sparky personally put on the clothing and endured the heat of his own fires, again and again until he found a material that would protect people from getting hurt in fires. Sparky also routinely burns down forests, in a controlled manner, to decrease the chance of an accidental fire starting and spreading to surrounding cities and countryside. Sparky also flies into burning buildings to save children and adults, and he puts out the fire at the same time with the wind from his wings. Sparky is also the creator of the “Table of 50 Fire Commandments” and the “What to do if fire spreads” videos which includes “Uh-oh, I’m on fire”. As a fire breathing dragon, Sparky knows fire can be dangerous, except if you’re barbequing. Let’s all welcome Sparky, the fire-breathing safety dragon.
It's been just over a month since I last wrote in here. It feels to me like it's been longer than that. Maybe just because I've been so busy. I finished my exams on a tuesday, had a job interview on the friday and started working fulltime on the monday. I haven't even finished to unpack yet. There's still stuff that I need to get from my home and bring it to my mom's for the summer (yes i've moved back home for the summer, 10 bucks an hour is almost worth it). I feel like I'm suspensed between two realities. One is my life, the normal part, and the other is this weird existence where I do nothing but work. I even dream about work while I sleep so I feel like I've never left. I'm lacking on keeping up with emails, I'm not making anytime for my friends, I keep meaning to write emails but I never seem to get around to it. I've made a resolution though to try, instead of going to bed really early I'm a going to try to catch up on the things I've missed. I feel like a whole world has passed me by and I am so out of touch with my normal life. That will change.
p.s. huge star wars fan, saw the movie FINALLY, thought not so bad it was.
I"M FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I finished my last exam today. Four exams in two days is brutal. I hate cramming, it makes my brain feel like it's going to explode. It's good I'm done though. I've got four months off to work and make some money and start it all over again in Septemeber.
YYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am curious about something. When people get angry at a situation that occured, like someone parking on the lines of a space and leaving no room for other and they start screaming at you, is that considered taking out their frustrations on you or just venting? I personally think that when a person gets angry and starts screaming it's venting, but I think it turns into taking it out on another person when they yell at you and tell you how you make their life difficult and don't you know how stressed they are. That's when it becomes personal. A situation that you had nothing to do with but end up being yelled at for. Or when somebody does something for you that they really can't afford too, and then they worry out loud in front of you where they are going to get the money for it. Then they say..."Oh it's nothing to do with you". Why do people do that?
suck
