this wednesday.
How are you feeling about it?
It does seem like a strange thing to develop on an animal - I guess if I looked into it further the shape would make sense but it seems very unusual - it's not like gills on a fish to breathe or chameleons changing colour so they don't get eaten
Good, I think. Just hoping I don't stuff it up. But I think I chose a good first topic.
Interesting. Moose are strange creatures
It sounds good to me. I'll have my fingers crossed for you
Thank you. For the first speech they usually just ask you to tell you something about yourself. The ice breakers that I have seen have just been recounting their lives to us.

CAWWWWWWWWWWW VICTIM CARD CAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
In my experience, that is not how the vast majority of people react. If people are going to Toastmasters, they are probably already open to accept people no matter their flaws. You are being brave - good on you!
