i COMPLETELY embarassed myself during a presentation on friday in my honors world history class. im so embarassed...i dont know what to do. i dont know how im going to face my classmates & teacher tomorrow at school. im also kinda mad...at the most important thing in my life. God. i prayed for weeks that the presentation would go well but it didn't. i hate not praying and being mad at god. i think i have a really bad speech anxiety. its the worst feeling in the whole world.

WHAT SHOULD I DO PLEASE! :[

My Royal Chavness	The trick is simply to relax. What I did was put into my mind that I was talking to a bunch of idiots, and I didn't care what they thought of me. I know it sounds extreme, but it really works. Hope I helped.

m r	before u go and speek in fornt of the class u should think of something that makes u feel like u are the olny one in the room dont be afraid to use your voice that s what god gave u

вυт тнє ∂ιšтαи¢є ιš •тяαğι¢αℓ•	All i gotta say is that don't get mad at God. The Devil is trying to get you mad at him for whatever happened. And if you get mad at God, then things would get more WORSE!!! same thing happened to me because i wanted my crush to stop avoiding me.

cogent_oblong	pretend like nothing happened. Its none of their business and when they ask goofy questions or if they tease then just look at them like they were the ones that were the butt of the joke. What really annoys people when they try to embarras you is to just laugh full out in their face and tell them they are cute sometimes! If u need help with your presenting skills then start on your family and announce things to them and then go to your friends and ask them what they think, so you wil slowly build a confidence with it.

Katie L	As someone that suffered from social anxiety to the extreme in high school I feel for you. But its true, most people are too nervous about thier own presentations to really listen to you. The funny thing is that they probably wont remember what you did at all. And if someone mentions it, just tell them you were nervous. I think more people are understanding about that then you think. And if you feel like it ruined your grade (in my case, i talked like a billion words per second) talk to your teacher alone after or before class about it. I had a very strick english teacher and she she ended up being very understanding. Remember, you are not alone in this. Most people are scared, we are just the few that dont handle it very well, lol. And dont be mad at God. All things happen for a reason.

pinkviolinistofthelord	Although I am really sorry for what happened, God isn't there to accomplish whatever you want Him to do. Just because you prayed for a while doesn't mean He has to help you. But seriously, bad moments don't last forever. Just keep looking into the future.

Anibelle	hey, don't sweat it! everyone gets embarrassed sometimes, so dont make any super-high expectations of yourself. and i bet you there are people at your school who's gone through worse situations. plus, there will always be more presentations and projects coming up, where you can redeem yourself! if anyone brings it up, you can always laugh about it, even if it might hurt a little. or say something like "hehe, yeah, i kind of messed up on that" in a cheerful tone and laugh about it. i mean really, the only thing you can do is forget about it/learn from it, right? so don't worry! oh and, i know it seems like God doesn't give you what you want sometimes, and you get angry about it. but really, in the end, it turns out all right with some faith. who knows? your embarrassing situation could lead to a really good situation in the long run. and keep up with the praying, it's really good to :) dang, i didn't think my answer would be this long. lol. but well i hope it helps!

FRESH_PAIR-OF-Js	smile, speak clearly, and since your a girl i assume, i would guess that you have a lil mirror, check how you look

cornfed	Chin up and God bless you It will only get better from here-I'm feeling it been there someday I will promise u You will be on top of ur game- but to get there it takes practise-and You will be just FINE! ROCK ON!

prettylassie8504	i am communication major and give alot of speeches. my prof taught us to breath deep when we get nervous. she also give us rubber bands to snap our wrist when we said um or like. you don't really need that. picture the audience in your place. i also think of my journalism prof dresed as bozo since he has big hair. do something like that to.

sage149th	did u know more ppl are afrIAD OF PUBLIC SPEAKING than death. lol. itz just sumthin that takes practice dnt be so upset there r some trick for this. one is rubbing a paper clib between ur thumb nd forfinger while reading or reciting wat u r going 2 say. also reading ur things while staring @ ur self in the mirror. look into ur eyes btw. dnt worry abt it im 18 nd i wuz shaking and had a cracked voice when i wuz giving my opening statement @ my mock trail in my ne HS last yr lol

Jennifer R	Don't worry most people will forget it. If everyone else in the class have to do a presentation too they are most likely not listening to your presentation and just worrying about yours.

smexibiotch3	laugh it off, play it cool, thats what you can do.

rhymes^with^orange	we've all gone through embarrasing moments. So has everyone in your school. So if you farted, or accidently sweared, no worries (ive done both). Start every day like its a new one.

Tony Montana	You should really go talk to your teacher (alone) . I am pretty sure she/he would be really happy to help you through your anxiety and communication skills. Trust me, I have the same problem!

khn_mchl	If you don't make a big deal about what happened everybody will soon forget it. They bring it up just laugh along with them. More embarrassing things will happen in your life I hate to say.

taytay	well, being mad at God is not going to help. Because He is the only one who can TRULY help you! God knows what He is doing, and that is not the worse thing that is going to happen in your life! There are going to be other (seemingly) bad things that happen. But they will really, in the long run, turn out to be good. Everything happens for a reason and a lot of times it's to get you to learn a lesson. (whatever that lesson may be). Just remember this- He gets His streangth from our weaknesses. Just trust Him in what He is doing in your life. Face your friends with the attitude of Jesus. Good luck and God Bless!!!

chiliswoman	Relax. Talk to your teacher about it. Everything will be OK. You are not the first or the last person this has happened to.

ramcharger70	keep praying. We are children of God and when His children get mad at Him He wants us to talk to Him. Just remember we are on His schedule, He does not work on ours. As for the anxiety over speeches, leave your problems with Him. Ask for His help and guidance.

MM	Don't feel discourage, sometimes it happen the way we didn't expect it. That only make us try harder and prove it that we can do better. Also don't forget to pray for He will give the desire of our heart. But we have to our part first, and He will do His part. For technical side you can practice your speech using a mirror, try that and soon you will be no longer have speech anxiety. Will be praying for you.

revenge_20081	the fault u did is irrecoverable what a shame , u cant make it up now till the rest of your life

Hillz	just pretend like nothing happened or if anyone mentions it just laugh it off and pretend like it didnt matter

Christelle	well, al i have to say is that i'm your age and giving speeches makes me really nervous too. just try to remember that everyone else has to present in front of the class too, and that they're your peers and they want you to do well. when you start thinking of them more as friends, you'll find that it makes you a lot less nervous to get up and talk in front of them.

grannypincher8	just laugh it off and make it a joke. no1 ever finds things as humiliating as the person who actually was the one being humiliated. u'll be straight when u get back into school if you laugh it off

Mary	hey!! you're cool, ok? I know embarrassing yourself (however you did this) is really well embarrassing, but it WILL be ok. People make mistakes. Many people make many mistakes; most people make a bunch of mistakes. You are still a good person, a smart person, and probably a cool person. Every once in a while, something bad is going to happen...to everyone, and depending on how alert your classmates were, they may not even have noticed however you embarrassed yourself. In fact-a random fact-psychology experiments have informed us that there is a phenomenon known as the spotlight effect, in which we overestimate others' noticing and evaluating our appearance, performance, and blunders. We all do, just like we all make mistakes. You're going to be ok. (Unless you flashed your class. that might not be as forgettable.) If you're still nervous, think about the likely consequences. Your teacher...she/he might give you a bad grade. Oh well. You can work that much harder and compensate for the points you lost. Classmates...they were most likely out of it-it was FRIDAY!!- and if anyone does give you trouble, understand that they are most likely immature, perfect! hah!!, or trying to give you advice on your next presentation.

suzygreenboots	I cannot say that I totally know how you feel, but I do a little. I really hated speech in high school. Whatever you did that embarassed you so much was probably a lot worse to you than anyone else. Your classmates have already probably forgot about it. I know it is hard but you have to realize that God works in mysterious ways, and everything he does, he does for a reason. Practicing my speeches in front of people I was comfortable with (my family, friends) always helped me. It always makes me feel better to pray, so maybe if you do talk to God about how you are feeling and how you want to feel, maybe it will help.. I hope that helps you, and good luck.

oh lily	Don't get mad at God. It was probably his plan for that to happen so that you can grow from the situation. Don;t worry. No one will remember it by tomorrow or no one will care because everyone has their own lives. If they do care, then that;s sad because it probably means their lives are so stupid and boring. Before an oral presenation, you should try doing it in front a mirror and don't let anybody get to you! You are stronger than that.

Amsterdam Conversations	The same thing happened to me once. The whole class would just give me weird looks after my presentation and the teacher was making it worse. When we were eating lunch outside my friend made a joke about it that made me smile. Everyone was taking it so seriously (including me) apart from this one guy. And that was the solution: to not take it so seriously. I've actually taught myself that if I don't want to remember embarrassing things I block them out. Neat trick. Just do something to get your mind off it. This moment will not haunt you for the rest of your life. Trust me. I'm always saying the wrong thing but I don't get down about it. I just laugh at myself and hope that next time things go better. As for praying to God: a wise man once said to me "pray in detail otherwise God will not know what you are requesting or he will answer your prayer but not in the way you want."

bart s	I usually spend my time on here with a bunch of smart a s s answers but yours needs a serious response so please i know stuff cause i am older so listen to me i have raised 4 kids and i still have teenagers that frequently come to my house not my kids just neighborhood kids who occasionally need advice from a fatherly figure who wont judge them so they usually listen to me Now it seems like a big deal but laugh with them we all screw up and do embarrassing thing its really not the end of the world. Dont sweat the little stuff it seems important now but a month from now u will find something else just as important and u and everyone else will forget about this one so listen to me littl girl i am old and i know sh i t so just have fun being young your true friends will understand the rest u dont need to worry about u wil forget them soon enough

LiL MaMaZ	OKAY HOW DID YOU EMBARRASS YOUR SELF

Hannah T	Sweetheart, I'm sorry you messed up your speech at school. The good news is, no one but you will soon remember it. You're friends will still love you as much as always, your teacher will still treat you the exact same, and that cute guy across the room will continue to wink at you. I promise things will be back to normal in no time! I'm also glad to hear that God is so important in your life. Just remember that, although He is looking out for you, stuff still happens. No one said that once you had God it would be a free ride forever. Just remember that even on these bad days, He still loves you and is going to help you get through.
