Why do the worst things physically possible, happen to me! I rehearsed a million
times! I can’t share my speech with the whole school if I forgot what to say! My heart
was beating a mile a minute, thud, thud, thud,. Looking at the clock, I began to panic, six
minutes till “Showtime.” My mind was a blind horse race. “Let’s see, I know the speech
was about school, but how did it start?” I thought. “maybe I should just make something
up! No, that won’t work. I need to remember.” Thinking intently I finally accepted that I
was as clueless and confused as a patient with amnesia. Then I heard the principal call me
onto stage followed by a rowdy round of applause from my restless classmates. “Well,
here goes nothing. “ I thought as my feet carried me onto the stage where the microphone
stood laughing at me.
