stage fright

For those that know me, you'd know that speaking in public rarely scares me. I mean, after all, it is a silly notion given what I do for a living. I mean, it's not like I am so absolutely confident each time I address a crowd- I do get the usual butterflies and nervous pangs but it's usually under control and its not that big a deal on my system.

This time, i'm actually nervous. As in, right-in-my-bones kind of nervous. People keep saying, "Oh, you'd do well!" and stuff: thanks for the vote of confidence but I'm still pretty much staring at a blank piece of paper that is supposed to be way filled with stuff I'm to talk about tomorrow. In fact, I should have, by now, have my speech down to pat and what not. And the Rapster says I "work brilliantly under pressure."

Oh for the cries of confidence.... I feel I'm wearing shoes two sizes too big today.

Maybe they'll fit better after I've had some nutella.
