just like an AURA! They show excess admiration and interest for that guy without any particular reason; i guess mostly for personal gain. And there's another group who stays back and continues to hate that guy throughout their life, again without any solid reason. U guys can imagine which group my classmate belongs to. To me, everybody has the potential to sparkle in life at some point, so it's really irrelevant and illogical to show excess admiration or hatred to these guys.
From my third person perspective, it seems like this guy was a real "big fish" at school and my classmate felt jealous, mad and disrespected because he couldn't get to that position and had chance to throw a speech like him. There might be good reason for him behind developing that feeling, or there might be no reason at all. (I don't know how was their relation) In my personal life what I've seen is that there's always a group of people who sticks with the "big fish" in a class...
A DISCLAIMER, TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: the "hate comment" that u read as mine is NOT actually mine. one of my classmate at NOVA (who happened to be a classmate of this speaker) commented on this video while I was logged on Google. I did not delete it (and I'm planning to keep it :) because I was interested in watching the protest and rebuttal of that comment. I wasn't related to this comment in any way.
That was a shitty speech. Who the hell do u think ur??? you can't even deliever a speech. I was there in the patorit center and was board as hell while listening to u. U stink big time... u son of a b**ch...!!! A** hole...!
@mahbub1986 you're an ass! clearly you don't know tom crossland or were in any of his classes because you couldn't get off A street at forest park!!! tom crossland is awesome and you should only wish that people would want to even listen to a speech you gave. TOM RULES!
This kid was hilarious and his speech was appropriate and awesome. At his 20th high school reunion, he WILL be the next Bill Gates and WILL be married to the gorgeous blolnde he spoke about! Well done!
09!!! Tom, you're really the best. I am so blessed to have experienced such an amazing speech. I was lucky to be in your AP English class and hear this speech before many, and your parents must be proud! I sure can't wait to see you beat Rick Astley!!! -Sincerely, Antoinette :)
