This is a little more urgent

As much as I would like to tell you about my trip in the Caribbean, I cant. I have some more pressing matters like WHAT TO DO FOR SPEECH.

In January, I'm going to Kentucky for another speech conference, but this is also a tournament. I just read last night that I have to enter 3 different speech categories- Limited Prep, Interpretation, and Platform. If that made no sense to you, thats ok, I'm gonna explain it in small words- I have to write 2 speeches for this competition(or tournament if I prefer). The platform is going to be the easiest to write, and the Interpretation is gonna be the hardest. . . So let us start with Platform-

Original Oratory- Just a regular speech written by me of course

Persuasive- A speech written by me that is trying to persuade ppl to do or believe something.

Expository- A speech written by me that is to expose everything about my topic- I did an expose about gymnastics, and I showed some skills, talked about apparatuses, and that stuff. you get that right?

Now the hard type of speeches to write- Interpretations-

Dramatic Interp- All interps have a point to them, but the dramatic is not supposed to be funny. . . but you can add alittle bit of funny in it. you understand dramatic right?

Humorous Interp- FUNNY!!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahahah. wow that was self explanatory. . .

Poetry/Prose Interp- Im sure you understand Poetry, but prose? they are both similar. Poetry/Prose is an interp in Lyric Mode, like Dr. Seuss(sp?).

Thematic Interp- An interp with a theme like dragons, and you get a bunch of peices of literature and put them in your speech and they all form to a common point. Simple enough.

Original Poetry/Prose- Just the normal Poetry/Prose, but it's written by you.

I could do duo, but I dont have a partner.


Anyway, I really really need to know what to do for my Platform and Interp speeches. I need to know what category speech I should do, so pppppplllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeee comment!
