@rinkydinkydoink I honestly was nervous and that’s why I chose to do things I’m comfortable with. For a public speaking presentation I chose to prepare food, and I also brought the cooked version of it to pass around and distract everyone from looking at me so much 😬😂 For an impromptu acting thing, I pretended to do nails.

You are a good writer, too. A little practical prep seems to have made your experiences less stressful
Your retelling reminded me of Marlon Brando's inborn ability to assess what needed to be done and what not to do to be believable - - - -
- - - There is a famous anecdote about Marlon Brando in acting class with Stella Adler where he acted like a chicken. While other students panicked about a simulated nuclear bomb, Brando remained still, and when asked why, he said, "I'm a chicken—what do I know about bombs?".
