"Cher" wrote in message ... I had this feeling that you were a little bit of a shy person, don't know what gave me that impression, but there you are. Funny thing is, when I was young I was terribly shy, but even though I get a bit self concious too, you'd not believe it, when you see me working, and I'm as mad as a hatter, up on tables, out the mens loo's...lol Wearing absolutely mental clothes, walking up a bar, and just making a general idiot of myself, and my duo partner is worse..(vbg). So I think we all have these traits, but hide it best we can. LOL, she has me pegged to a tee! I'm very shy, with people I don't know well, but I cover it by acting outrageous at times! And look out when I KNOW people, they can't shut me up! Can't public speak, even amongst friends though... I FREEZE! Hugs, Noreen --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I used to FREEZE too, Noreen. Then when I joined the OES, I took an "office" . At the beginning of each meeting I had to say a few words. Never "off the cuff", as there was ritual work that you memorized. Later on in the year I had a five minute story that I also memorized and told, with gestures to emphasize. Then 12 years later, I started to prepare for the Worthy Matron office, which is like the president of the Chapter. For 3 years I had more and more memory work and did start speaking "off the cuff". in my 15th year I was Worthy Matron. I ran meetings, ad libbed A LOT... LOL, and when visiting other Chapters, I did learn to speak "off the cuff". I'm not great at it, but now I can at least get up and do it. And I expect that I will do it all again. Actually, I hope someday to be elected into the District Deputy Grand Matron office. There you really do a lot of unprepared speaking, I mean that you have to come up with something to say at about a 5 minute notice (if you are lucky!). I guess it depends on the person, though. I do know a lady in our town, that faints if she tries to speak in public. Needless to say, she doesn't do THAT anymore. -- Star love, Norma |
