I'm supposed to write a speech about a life changing event for my COM class, but I can't think of anything that has drastically changed my life. The teacher said taht if I can't think of something, I can make something up. Throw some ideas at me, maybe your own life changing event.

and you still need help?
 
Do what I did in high school ... make up a story about losing your parents to a drunk driver, and being sent to the in-laws who really don't want you. Made my english teacher cry, and then I had to tell her it was fiction 😱
 
The time you almost got trampled by a hippo, then somehow, through the sheer pity of the beast, he let you live. And the hippo simply replied cooly "Pay it forward homie....pay it forward".



 
That's what's great about communications classes.. The reports you write and the speeches you give do not in any way shape or form have to be true. What matters is the structure and the delivery.

My suggestion is to talk about something outrageous. Some experience you went through during WWII, for example.
 
Write about the time you ran into that burning house. You could barely hear someone yelling over the roar of the flames. Through the thick, choking smoke you found two people in the rear bedroom. Part of the interior wall had fallen down, effectively disabling both. The young child was knocked out cold. The elderly grandmother was still concious, yelling for help. You managed to muscle the burning wall off them, but the child wasn't responsive and the grandmother couldn't walk. You were forced to make a choice - you could only carry one to safety. And you think about that choice every day of your life.
 
I think you should write about that time that you had the accident with that particle accelerator which pulled you into an alternate dimention.
