  3. Relating your life to quotes was a great idea. Words bring out so much in a person. You sharing some of your personal life and stories with us. Thanks. You made some great points about school and whats important. In some ways, your speech was a little disconnected but it still maintained the big theme idea.

  5. I really liked your use of all the quotes the important people in your life told you. I thought all the pictures you added were really nice and added a lot to what you were saying. I liked that you focused a lot on how other people have shaped you and made you the person you are today. I also liked how you kept coming back to the quote about reaching for the stars. Good job!

  6. I think your presentation was great. I liked how your used quotes that you have heard through out your life. You could tell that your friends and family are very important to you. I think your presentation was able to hit everyone because of your quotes that your kept on quoting from your grandma to your dad. It got me thinking about my family and the quotes that surround my family. I think your presentation was great and was able to impact everyone in the room. Good Job!

  7. I think it's great how everybody takes quotes differently, and I love to see how you take them. I totally agree with how you look at school!
    Also Henry David Thoreou is one of my favorites, and I loved that you quoted him. I love how you said you need to focus on yourself. How could we get anywhere in life if we didn't live for ourselves?
    Best of luck, I hope you get everything you want!

  10. I like your theme of quotes. Each one holds a special place to you and its obvious through the way you talk about them. I really liked your pictures and how each quote was different but still tied into you.

  12. You sounded very prepared and you did a good job of just speaking instead of reading off your note card. I liked the pictures and quotes and I thought they fit into your presentation really well.

  13. Dierdre-
    Dierdre you have an amazing presentation and you put it all together extremely well. You really told us a lot about you and put yourself out there and took yourself off the beaten path. We all have to figure out our future. And remember to "Reach for the stars and if you land on the moon... Well all the better for you."
    Have a great summer and enjoy the future years Deirdre.

  16. I loved how you used all of the quotes to tie your lecture together. I thought it was really refreshing that you don't view high school in the typical sense but you paved your own path instead. I respect your optimism and your devotion to the people you care about. Good job!

  17. Your emotion and feelings for what yo believe in added to your presentation. I liked your quotes they added to your lecture tenfold of what it would have been without them, great job.
