uh...
to seriousness interest
i responded thank you guys or
like an entire world media scolded by on either side you get totally fact
oriented man
uh... love that pink but that also a distraction me my high school
graduations
of order here
tips for being the graduation speaker our graduation speaker was was not that
great
uh... in high school
yanked right
i guess i think it was two people it was two people i mean i think that the
i tend to say the best thing to do is to go to have a to have a funny element
humor is the best humor is good but also get some kind of good point accross
right just like a listing the nicknames of teachers or something like that
it's it might be funny at the time to have to about high school graduating
class
but it's not really that compelling
if you're able to do something funny that is also compelling that's really
the best combination i think right and you know you're
you have to just take
funny instances from from that world that you live in there from the school
from the people
uh...
use that in the humor
and um...
and use it to make some broader point
right around you know it and i've seen the lot of good speeches at that point
out
leave it with humor they make a point about the education system
or they make a political point are you know i love it when a political point is
made
uh... advantages get nervous because as yellow somebody's did somebody speaking
their mind here and uh... were disposed to kind of phone line new and uh... you
know we don't talk about politics and so on and so forth but hey you're
graduating can really get in trouble for making a political statement although i
bet some schools might depending on what you say try to take the diploma away but
then what do you need to go back for another class i mean you've graduated
and you can make several points if you want if the school lunches are terrible
incorporate that certainly if uh... if you know
you have uh... no heat or air conditioning incorporate that earth you
know whatever just don't do anything that breaks the law it might sound funny
to not wear anything on your capping down and then expose yourself after the
speech
but it won't really be that funny you'll very quickly learn the lessons of
post-high school interview that yeah so don't do that let us know how it goes
keep the questions coming we will answer them
