The speech is what got me. I had these really lame jokes that were thrown in, but at the time they seemed positively hilarious. Ya, I burst out laughing. Good times. Ironically, I speak publicly all the time and never lein anymore. Funny how things work out.

If your brother speeds through his Parsha, he won't be the first one. You'll all be really proud of him anyway.SuperRaizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06742653185025562286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6311150865151865877.post-964190724226244072009-07-26T18:11:28.488-04:002009-07-26T18:11:28.488-04:00I had serious jitters before my bar mitzvah, but I...I had serious jitters before my bar mitzvah, but I had my speech and leining so completely memorized that I was able to completely shut down the rest of my brain and obliviously let the leining and speech just flow out. The only memories I have of my bar mitzvah are of having to use the restroom just before I was supposed to lein and shaking someone's hand. (I suppose that is really the synthesis of memories of several hundred hand shakings/ mazel tovs/ congratulations etc.)Frum and Rationalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200835950640799373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6311150865151865877.post-87611164459895752762009-07-26T15:08:21.423-04:002009-07-26T15:08:21.423-04:00Yeah.

Th...Yeah. I had, lulei demistafina, major jitters.<br /><br />The only thing I remember from my BM speech is the word "manifestation." My father wrote it for me.<br /><br />I made up for it several years later, speaking at my youngest brother's bar mitzvah, and doing, lulei demistafina, a masterful job.<br /><br />In fact, I got a date out of it. A girl, who would not go out with me previously, relented after her dad heard me speak and raved about me to her.CJ Srullowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01851508109666827492noreply@blogger.com
