A Day in the Life of a Toastmaster Student

"I think I can, I think I can, I think I can..."

Here I sit at the back corner of the public library... my stomach full from excessive amounts of water, almonds and Luna bars.

I have bulimia of the fingertips... I've spent hours agonizing over something of importance that I can write about. A single page Word document has 6 starts to 6 different speeches. Frequently I break into Explorer to Google something…anything. To eventually find myself one click away from purchasing the latest anti-wrinkle miracle  …thank God I snap out of it and get back to the vomit on my page.   I continue to write. Somehow it just happens --  It takes shape, it makes sense and the pieces of the puzzle start to fit; first the four corners, then the boarders,  then small parts of the picture inside...until they all connect. Beast to beauty. It doesn’t stop there … I read and reread, cut, paste, cut, paste...it's all there, just needs a better arrangement. It will come, it always does.

Try it! 

Writing……….it’s a beautiful thing!
