conversations part two

i don't know what score i got in the speech, but i can easily summarize it like this: i delivered pretty well, but the speech itself (content-wise) was what brought me down. quoting noy, the focus was a bit shaky.

what the audience (and maybe noy himself) didn't perceive at first (but my lovely vena did already) is that death-row prisoners are offshoots of prisoners, which are underprivileged people themselves. ah well, i've been known to write speeches that stray off-topic more often than not; see my talumpati's first criticisms by mama. i think i'm better off delivering a speech i didn't write.

"what makes you think i don't love you? ...i finally admitted that to myself."

"well, sir cortel taught me to doubt a lot."

"ah, yes. therefore, you exist."

"aren't you glad that i do?"

"hahaha. yep."
