Today I got in my car and I went to college. Classes went fine. After classes are over I was walking to my car when I noticed some kind of jerk parked super close to my car door. All I can say is, Jerk. Anyways, I was trying to squeeze into my car, without letting my door hit the neighboring jerk-mobile, when I hear my name being called. I looked up and there was Mr.Paulson. And Mr. Paulson told me to blog about todays speech events. My first thought was, ‘I didn’t know he knew about my blog.” My second thought was, “Yes! I’ll do it.”
So here I am. Blogging. About impromptu speech day.
Class started with Mr. Paulson walking in. With a box full of random objects. Everyone knew what was happening. We were going to give an impromptu speech. This video helps explains it all:
Yes, we had to create an infomercial with whatever he gave us. Luckily we got put into groups. I don’t think I could have done it alone.
The various infomercials included a product for balding, some kind of intelligence enhancer, a program for creating the perfect basketball shot, a “swiss army” shelf, and a surprise guest appearence by Billy Mays.
For our props we were given a stapler, a roll of ribbon, a balloon, a mini basketball, a small cassette, and a metal strip.
We were chosen to go first. Our product? The Non-Pants on the Ground Project. There are three steps to the Project. First we must decide how severe your problem is. Then we must implement a solution. Then you can live hapily ever after without your pants on the ground.
The three levels are:
1) Moderately baggy. With slight undie showage.
2) Super baggy. With massive undie showage.
3) No Hope.
To solve the first level we give you a balloon and some ribbon, to tie the balloon to your pants. Then the balloon will just float and hold your pants.
The second stage is solved by stapling your pants to your shirt.
If you’ve entered the third stage there is obviously no hope for you. We give you the mini basketball to use as a stress ball.
Remember to get your own versiou of the Non-Pants on the Ground Project. That way you won’t look like a fool, with you pants on the ground (See video below).
I feel pretty good about it all. Class was amazingly fun today.
