Ethos:

·      Normally I stand ridged and cross my legs, I need to walk around a little bit, move, to make it seem like I am more comfortable

·      Make eye contact with EVERYONE

·      Practice enough so if I loose my place I can just move on smoothly and not panic

Pathos:

·      I’m not looking to make these sad stories, but I want people to see how my life has changed in the past 6-7 months

·      Specific stories

·      Try to make them unique

1.     Introduction

a.     Thesis: Being the youngest in my family, I have always been able to look up to someone else. I haven’t felt real responsibility for myself until I moved away from home, and had to start over. I feel as if I have a new life, but parts of it are more underdeveloped than others.

c.      Entertainment:

                                                                                                     i.     All of my friends went to different schools—I knew no one coming to UK

                                                                                                    ii.     The social aspect of this life is just as important to me as the academics—you cant go anywhere alone
