  1. I felt like that when I first came on to my soccer team but now I have great relationships. Also when I moved I had these problems.

    I like how you made your speech very personal. Good job not having too much text on your visuals.

  4. Aspen,
    Good job using a personal story to intro your speech and present your topic. The eye contact was there even with having the note cards.

  5. I can really connect to your story, and how easy it is to feel left out or leave another person out. Good job sharing your personal stories!

    Wow. It was amazing for you to get up here and talk about your personal life like that. I would never have the courage to do something like that.

  11. Aspen,
    I think that your TED Talk brought up a good point through your personal experiences. I think your speech could really inspire people to notice those that are left out.

  12. Your personal connection made the story much more powerful. It was eye-opening because I feel like we all don't see those who are left out, and don't care because we aren't being forgotten.

  13. Your pictures and stories really made it more personal for me because every one knows how it is to feel left out. What you are saying is very very important and should be practiced in this society.

  16. Aspen, I liked your personal story because I know many people have been through the same thing you have and some of them didn't do as well handling the situation as you have.

  20. Aspen- I had the same feeling when I first ran on the varsity track team. Everyone had connections and I was always the kid sitting alone. I still feel like you but I also have made connections.

  21. The message behind your speech was conveyed with great diagrams, voice, and personal examples. I thought it was going to be a sad speech with how it started, but about a minute in I realized this was a happy speech from you, a happy person who was strong enough to not care what others thought about you other than the important people in your life. Then you conveyed the message so that you can influence other people's lives the way Smith influenced yours.
