What I go on about in this entry makes me sound like I'm about twelve again

I have received a Level 2 math workbook of stuff I need to learn if I want to do stats next year. (Ironically, it's Jade's. [Of course, teal Sophie {I am only calling you teal because there are three Sophies on my flist and I need some way of differentiating} is the only one who knows why this is ironic.] I had no idea she'd left.) I have not yet ( Read more... )

Talk about a celebrity. I vote Tyra Banks. I really want to go back and give a speech on her. Celebrities always sell. I learnt this with Johnny Depp.
Or JKR is topical, but probably also cliched. Talk about someone everyone knows and loves/loves to hate but who hasn't been done to death. John Campbell if you're going for a Kiwi angle.
If, when you've written it, you want some critique, send it to me and I can help. I entered that competition a gazillion times. Also, spend the entire speech on their contribution. It is the vital thing.

Oh, but celebrities are so...celebrities, you know? I'm sorry, that made no sense. Hmmm. I shall take the offer of critique if I end up entering though :)

How do I enter this competition? My adopted English teacher tells me that I must enter every single fecking one :/

Try to find someone that people haven't heard of. Or that's what I'd do; take a sort of "unsung hero" approach to it. That tends to work, I think? But only if it's a national person. If you're going for a worldwide sort of scale, maybe try someone like on of the Beatles? They pretty much changed culture. I dunnno. I'm just rambling now, so I shall shut up :)

AND I CAN'T SEE THE SHOES ;__;

By pretending to be teal. I'd lend you my summer uniform but it might be too small? I wouldn't know, but Carina seemed to find it a bit small.

Yeah, a girl won juniors once by talking about like a 9/11 pilot or something. I dunno. This morning I thought about doing Jesse the coffee guy but I thought that would be a bit ironic considering I've never bought coffee from him in my life.

DAMNIT. ;__;

Oh so it's only in your school? Bums. It'd be too SHORT XP (and too skinny :D)

Jesse the coffee guy used to stalk my friend when she was in year eight XD

Yeah, the cup got donated by an old girl of the school (the named Marjorie Nicholls) or something. Oh please, I have longer dresses than everyone else.

That's somewhat disturbing.
