Adoption for GBLT speech

This is a video of my persuasive speech for my communication class. I had a friend video tape it to show that life does get BETTER after high school. I was pretty nervous as you can probably tell but it all went really well!

Ur the greatest Tom for helping people be open minded to this and u have inspired me to come out in one of your other vids thank you so much!

[FruityTeen09]

@101bubbacdh that is so good to hear! which video? and how is everything going now?

[frozenandbroken]

Awe, you're so adorable, when your voice started shaking at the beginning there. ^_^ I know you were nervous, but you were incredibly brave to present this in front of your class. And once you started getting more into it, you really sold your point. Great job sweetie, I know you're helping a lot of youth out there who watch your videos, you're doing good. <3

[frozenandbroken]

@FruityTeen09 I'm glad! I've been fantastic, hella busy with finals and everything in school. So happy 1st semester is over so I can finally have a break. :D

[FruityTeen09]

Glad to see another video, and that was incredibly cute, I could tell u were nervous but who wouldn't be haha and u did a really great job and I hope that when I go to college in a couple of years that I'll have the courage to do something as amazing as what u did :)

Good for you! Good video

[BeBreezyTV]

Hey, you did a great job! i could tell you were nervous, but throughout the speech your points got stronger and you had a lot more feeling in it and it turned out really well. What'd your classmates think of it???

How did I miss this? I hate the new YouTube setup!! So proud of our Tommy!!! You should have brought up the Leffews! After seeing their family I don't know how ANYONE could oppose adoption for gay people. Dave and I had a great time in Santa Rosa with them. They think a lot of you. I hope you have a fun holiday Tom!!! PLEASE keep the snow in Chicago..don't be sending it to Cleveland!!! Hugs! Jim

@FruityTeen09 Thank you! Congrats to you as well! Lol, hey that's completely fine! I have a couple friends doing that too, took me while to find out what I wanted to do. I'm actually at a trade college, and I'm taking a baking/pastry class and a management class. And all these other classes that are required, sanitation, theory etc. Hoping to one day open up a bakery, travel around. The whole shabang. For me, I need to work with my hands, craftsmanship of some kind. Otherwise, I'll go crazy. XD

Hey cute.

Nice video. I wouldnt have the guts to do it. Speeches in general arent my thing. I had to do it once for a class.

[blizzard762]

Wow, that takes a lot of guts! Good speech, and hopefully you got many in the audience to think about this stuff a bit more than they otherwise would.

@steinarsxe awww thanks :P

[FruityTeen09]

@evercoop thanks..yeah i have a few weeks off now should have some time to make more vlogs!

[FruityTeen09]

@myzackfair01 thanks, yeah i think i would have been better reading from a script, but we could only use 2 note cards.

[myzackfair01]

why it still only got 70 views!!! Tom, you are super super cool. And I feel your passion towards this subject though u were pretty nervous and uncomfortable. You help those in the closet step forward!!

[steinarsxe]

Great speech Tom, and great to see a video from you again! I'm sure you changed some minds here and got people to think about issues they might not have thought about before. That is important. You are brave and smart, a killer combination! ;O)

[evercoop]

Yaaay FruityTeen09!! Nice speech, very informative. The poll in the class was a good idea, you're good at this :D. Hope you'll do some vlogs, you're an interesting person and your past vlogs were greats :/

[GotJerms]

That was awesome! I know that took a lot of courage. Good job!

[ThroughMyEyes100]
