Sorry D:

The speech could possibly pay for my future, because without college i have NO future, and I cannot afford college.
The speech contest called Voice of democracy will give a 30 grand scholarship to the first place winner, and 15grand to second, all the way down to last place getting like 20 bucks cash.


Well, 30% of the judging is originality/imagination, and everything I can think of for the theme "Service and sacrifices by Americas veterans benefit today's youth by----" is all unoriginal crap, that i know will be in everyone speech.

and the first draft was actually due today.
Which i did not turn in.
Ahh great.

My question after all this is, lol, can anyone think of something that's not completely obvious, that I can brainstorm on and come up with something similar without it being plagiarism?

Oh nice, every person deserves a fair chance noob.

Do you know who John Adams is? And don't go looking him up.


Evon, look at historical speeches and learn from it, don't plagiarize it, they're great examples that you can look at.

Finally a not spam post.
(Besides grebs.)


I wasn't trying to plagiarize, I was trying to get an idea from someone, and not copy it, but brainstorm on it.
Because I've blanked on everything except unoriginal obvious crap.

You obviously don't hold a job, nor have you ever seen a college tuition/boarding/books payment. Most colleges with a good reputation start about about 5 grand..... per semester.

*sigh* nvm, its just that you wouldnt pay for college all by yourself. Your parents would pay for some of it anyhoo.
