Regular Class (or so I thought)
Classes in UP started last week. However, the professors weren't showing up yet. I only met 3 out of 7 of them. As I was about to go to school I thought that perhaps this is really the start of my regular class as a sophomore. My Math 100 (Calculus) class starts at 1 PM and it is the only subject I have on Mondays. I even sat infront so that I would have no excuse of not understanding any part of the lesson. And well, our Math prof still didn't show up. If I didn't have an org, going to school today would have been totally pointless. During training, I delivered a crappy speech. I was even asked to do it again because it was a failed speech. I was the first speaker of the debate and I wasn't able to do my job. I wasn't able to give a clear set-up and my arguments were truistic since I was arguing on a general level. My repeat speech was better anyway. I guess next time, I should really read about what's happening around.

Hear! Hear! I totally agree with you.
Regarding your speech, don\'t worry we all experience delivering crappy speeches during trainings (especially when you lack MATTER).
Someone told us once, \"Your manner and method won\'t make you a good debater if you lack the manner\" which is ofcourse, common sense... ;)
