I'm gonna say my high school graduation speech tonight in front of a group of hundreds. I'm not naturally nervous but I'm getting a bit more nervous as the time gets closer. Any tips on not getting nervous?
Realise everyone is excited, nervous, busy and doesn't give too much of a shit about what you say. You'll do great and probably won't remember the night well as will no one else.

Dude, congratulations! That is pretty awesome to tell a speech in front of that many people! What is your speech about?
Picture everyone naked. Especially your parents.

It's about giving thanks to my school, parents, and classmates. It's very generic. I don't even know why I was chosen.

Not to put a downer on your achievement but unless your dick/tits pop out nobody will remember what what you say. Just do your thing and go. Everyone is just waiting for you to finish so they can clap and move on.

That's actually really good to hear. Thanks

99% of the audience will be paying no attention to you because they're only there to see their children graduate. Focus on your own parents and one or two of your favorite teachers, and talk directly to them.
Nobody will give a flying fuck about you all the audience wants is to see there own kid but just know if you fuck up people will talk about it and most definitely make fun of you for being a fag
