Personally, I love public speaking. To me, it's just...somehow, really exciting, getting up there in front of people, and talking about something that I want to share with others...

My advice for those who aren't as fond of it as I am is to be prepared. If you barely know your speech, of course you'll be nervous! Also, I know that you've probably heard this a lot, but picturing the audience in their underwear actually can help some people. ^.^

  • Public speaking nauseates me. xP I shake, my voice trembles, and I feel terrible. I hate it.

    But having a prepared speech, and practicing it over and over helps. I don't make "note cards" I make "speech cards." I write out my speech, and then transcribe it to cards... Number the cards and, viola, even if I drop them in my nervousness, I can regroup and know what I'm talking about. ^^

    Practicing really makes the difference, and I can adlib and improv if I need to, so it's a lot better than it was before I figured this stuff out.
