on tuesday i gave a speech in front of 200+ people. i hate giving speeches and i am not very good at public speaking. actually i am quite terrible at it. however, i figured, business school was a pretty safe place to practice this skill and i had nothing to lose. i gave a speech because i was running for cluster treasurer. i will explain the terms class, cluster, cohort, pod, learning team, etc in a later post, but for now just think cluster = approximately 200 people.
despite my nerves, i did get up and speak. even though i was not very eloquent, i was taken aback by how supportive all of my classmates were. many made a point to go out of their way to wish me luck, praise my speech, etc. i was and still am amazed at the level of support i received, even from complete strangers.
i found out today that i won the election. i am cluster 3 treasurer. while i am shocked about the victory and grateful for the opportunity, i am even more grateful to be going to school with such a wonderful group of people
