Tomorrow, I will present my first major speech.  It is about how my jobs have influenced my dream to become big in the corporate world.  Working where I have, I now want to own a small company, not work in a large corporation.  Well, I had better practice the speech again.  Each one has to be 7-10 minutes in length, yikes!

Hopefully, you will hear from me again, if you don’t you know what killed me: summer school at Blinn.
