I plan on using technique number two in my speech. I think that a persuasive speech that uses creativity and humor will be a very effective one. I like to use humor in my speeches. If you give the audience something to laugh about then they will be more likely to pay attention and agree with what you are saying. The creativity goes along with my personality well too, I also don't like to be extremely serious.

My Car
I drive a 2008 Pontiac G5. It has been having a rough life. A while back I noticed that my window didnt seal when I shut it. When I drive it makes a hissing noise because the air coming through it. I took it to get it fixed because it was under waranty. I set there for about an hour waiting on them to get it done. When it finally got done it looked perfect. When I got the car home, it was doing it again. So, I had to take it back again. This time they kept it for a couple days. When we finally got it back, it was fine. In a day or so it was messed up again. We were going to have it worked on again shortly after that, but one day I was pulling out of my drive way and something happened. I live on a big hill and you can't see down one side of it. It is scary pulling out. That particular night, a truck happened to come over that hill. It smashed in my door and the rear quarter panel. So I don't have to worry about the window anymore. I now have a 6,500 dollar door with a perfectly good window in it. I have to take my car to get the radio worked on Saturday now because the plug in for my Ipod is broken. This has really devastated me because driving to school and not listening to my Ipod has really changed my life. I don't like it. Hopefully they get it fixed though. There is the story of my cars troubled life.

40 Minutes to Write a Blog
So today I have forty minutes to write a blog. I am not really sure what to talk about though. So I am going to explain my week in great detail. The detail that I am describing my week in is equivalant to HD Television. So my week began on a Sunday. On this particular Sunday, I woke up at about 9:30 a.m.. I woke up and brushed my teeth and put my contacts in. After that, I warmed up a cinnammon roll left over from the previous day (Saturday) for breakfast. After eating breakfast and watching TV for a while, well....., I didn't do much until after lunch. For lunch, I had some BBQ from The Smokehouse in town that was left over from the day befor. I then watched TV for a while. After that, I went outside and ran three miles on my cross country trail in my yard. I then came inside and had supper and went to bed.
Monday was a good day. I got up at six in the morning to go time a mile at the school. Before I made it to the school, I brushed my teeth and put my contacts in and packed my bag and my lunch and my breakfast and whatever else I needed to do. I finally got in my car to go to the gym. I ran the mile in 7 minutes and 39 seconds. That is a horrible time. So I cried for the next twenty minutes. I then went outside and moved my car to my parking spot because I was parked in front of the gym. I am really boring my self so I may continue this blog some other day. If you have been reading this, haha I just wasted five minutes of your life.
