Birthday

help DR!! my 21st bday is coming up next week and i dunno what to do for the speech bit... im already getting some friends to do a speech .. but then im stuck on my own... i wanna make something "atypical".... something interesting.. i wanna steer away from the normal standing up with speech on paper pose....

i was thinking of maybe a presentation slideshow of photos ... but then i dunno how to interweave my speech into it without making it seem so long.
coz the slideshow runs for quite a while ~5min of just plain photos..and if i add speech in as well.. that'll be heaps long... don't wanna bore ppl!

what's ur adivce?

I think that the photos is a great idea, but I would suggest that you cut them down to a smaller number 10-15 should be adequate - and don't take too long on each picture.

Rather than having two separate sections - the speech and the photos - just combine the two together. This should work out fine.

The other technique that you could try is to start off with a few facts about the year you were born in - who was in the charts etc. You could contrast what is different and what is the same.

I hope this helps
