Introduction:
When I was young, I had dreams about being successful when I grow up. I even had goals to do in the future. My dreams ranged up to getting a big house, buying the car of my dream (Nissan GTR), working in a good paying job, having a wealthy life, and a healthy family. My goals are my bucket list because there are just so much things I want to do in my life. I want to skydive but I’m afraid of heights. I want to race in a track. I want to travel around the world with my friends and so much more. Before I do these things, I have to finish college. That way, I could have a stable life. #JDMLifeStyle #BallisLife #27 |
Favorite Speech: Rushed Relationships
Growing up, people wanted to be in relationships to be cool, popular, etc. One thing I noticed growing up was people who like each other take things too quickly. They don’t give it some time until they know what they want. They just want to be in a relationship. Relationships are a big thing for me when I was growing up. Yes, I did date some girls but I didn’t really mean it after some time. I just end up breaking up with them and moving on to the next. When they say “I love you,” it’s like they really do mean it but when I say it, it’s like I can’t really decide if I should mean it or not. It’s good to take things slowly and let it progress but getting into a relationship real quick isn’t the way to go. Love is not based on effort. An example could be, you want cold water. I fan the cup a million times, and then someone else walks by with ice. You want something from a person, maybe you have expectations. I work with blood, sweat, and tears to reach your expectations. Then suddenly someone else just came by and has that thing you’ve been looking for, so you go with them instead. Being in a relationship really takes time and effort; you have to make time for your partner and effort to keep the relationship alive. Actually, both you and your partner have to put in effort in the relationship. Love is really based on effort if both couples want their relationship to last. That is why making choices is so hard because no matter what, you’re losing something. At the end it’s not about what you win at the end. It’s about what you give up on. You chose letting of that one that hurts less and stay with the one that hurts the most to let go. And at the end, if you can live without that one, then you did well at letting it go. Relationships happen too fast without notice. You see a guy that’s single and then the next day you see him with a girl. Well, that’s because both the guy and the girl don’t take things slowly. An example is like writing an essay. You free write and submit your paper, and then you realize you didn’t check for any corrections because it was due tomorrow. Then you end up getting a bad grade because you rushed your paper. So same thing in a rushed relationship, if you don’t get to know the person a lot then later in the end you end up hurt and broken. It’s good to take things slowly and not rushing right away. Relationship last long because two people make a choice to keep it, fight for it, and work for it. In a relationship, if things start to get rough, when a girl leaves, don’t let her walk away. You run after her and pour your heart out on the pavement. You tell her all the reasons why you love her and you better mean every word of it. Because she is your world, fight for her, protect her and don’t let her go because once she walks out on you there will be nothing left you can do. People in a relationship can’t promise a perfect relationship without arguments over their differences and trust issues. However, they both can promise that as long as one is trying then the other is staying. The point of this is basically; don’t rush things in a relationship because in the end one of you will get hurt. Take things slowly and progress slowly with one another. I’ve been to this situation and it was a really tough decision. The only problem with me is my heart isn’t pure, I don’t show much feeling because I’d probably get hurt. But I end up hurting the girl mentally because my heart is so different from the rest. Its jet black and I won’t show emotions of mainly depression because I’m always happy. So even though a girl tries to break my heart then it won’t affect me in any way because well, my heart is dark. I’d be like, “Okay, it was your choice but I still have some trick up my sleeve…etc”. I will still fight for the relationship. But if that was the choice being made then it’s okay. So don’t rush things, take things slowly and hang tight for the ride during your lifetime. |
Final Reflection:
Speech class was really a challenge to me, but I wasn't giving it my all. I wanted to try other things that would help me improve how I would do standing in front of the audience. Every time I go up in front of the class, I start to get nervous inside. I pretend not to show I'm nervous by being enthusiastic on the outside. I went up and read my favorite speech about rushing a relationship. This speech is my favorite because it covers about why you don't rush a relationship and why you should wait until you know what you want. This speech will always remind me that if I try to ever get into a relationship then I should follow my own advice. This is helpful because out there in the world, everyone will get hurt emotionally and even physically hurt. So before locking into a relationship, they should follow this advice. Speech class, will forever be the best class I've ever taken in college. No regrets taking this class because it taught me a lot of things. Like, how to be confident, breathing control, sense of humor, etc. Speech class is awesome. |
