10 reasons why I should not participate in the District Speakerthon tomorrow

1. I was sick for the past three days
2. I have not prepared anything on any of the five topics
3. Dinesh should have been chosen
4. Some people didn't even participate in the preliminaries
5. Kevitpal should have been chosen
6. I don't want to get stuck in a car with ****** on both leg of the journey
7. I suck at public speaking
8. I am going to make a fool out of myself (and my club)
9. My blasphemous speech will be rewarded by an 'Act of God'
10. What on earth is 'stage fright'?
