After a little talk after class today, concerning my fear of speaking in public, Pierson told me he had a thought for me...counselling. like, in order to get over my fears and public speaking woes. so maybe...this is a good thing? i told him i would call the people whose names he gave me and see what i can do...i'm too nervous to call, i think.
one thing that was said did make me smile...a quote:
"If you could acquire that ability, and add that to what you already have, you would be unstoppable."
maybe...well idunno. i guess it's time to grow up, eh? time to face reality, time to do something...
I'd like to be unstoppable, really. imagine that, me...unstoppable. i think i like the idea...or at least just the word.
he and john also talked about my presence in general. both said that they've noticed in the past few months that i've been walking with my head up, and stopped slouching so much. john said i have a very "commanding presence" and especially on a day like today, i look it too. what with my collared shirt and nice pants. and my loud sandals. i like shoes that make noises when you walk in them...like heels, you know? they make me feel more important, haha. i'm so lame...
but still...do you think i have a "commanding presence" or could be "unstoppable"? or any of that? tell me what you think, folks.
[sigh] time to go talk to a professor, that's a start.
