I have to do a persuasive speech for my Speech class, but I'm not sure which topic to pick: witchcraft and how it's not as bad as the media makes it out to be, misinformation in general and briefly going over three examples of misunderstood subjects—one of which will be witchcraft—or convincing someone to travel to either Switzerland or Finland.
If I go with the second one, I'm just worried about making it too long, which is what I did with my informative speech on Anne Boleyn.

𝓣𝓲𝓷𝓾𝓿𝓲𝓮𝓵Hum.. if you want to talk about witchcraft, I'd go with the first one. It gets more specific. Points to you to speaking about it, if you do! I don't hear enough speeches like that.

Thanks, Mint. The speech has to be a few minutes long, so I won't be going into too much detail, but what I want to do is go over a brief history of witchcraft and mm?witch hunts, explain how witches are treated today, and debunk common misconceptions associated with witchcraft. Well, something like that at least.

Okay, while it's still fresh in my mind, I just had a dream of a family of foxes coming into my bedroom. I scared the babies away at first, but then the parents came and looked as though they were trying to attack me. My grandfather managed to kill the father, and the last thing I remember is the mother mourning her mate.

As usual, don't really know much about dream interpretation, but... poor foxes. (Though they were attacking you, so...)

As usual, don't really know much about dream interpretation, but... poor foxes. (Though they were attacking you, so...) I still felt bad for them, though, even if they did try to attack it. But that's fine, Mint. Thanks anyway. I might try to buy a dream interpretation book, but I did find a few meanings online. Not sure how accurate they are. Death: symbolic end of something Fox: "To see a fox in your dream can symbolize shrewdness in your approach to challenges in your life. A fox can also symbolize an erratic behavior that cannot be predicted. This could either represent you or someone in your life who is going about in a very sneaky way." Fox attack: betrayal Dead fox: vanquished enemy I couldn't find anything for family of foxes/animals, but for just family: "To see your own family in your dream represents security, warmth and love. It could also symbolize bitterness, jealousy, or rivalry, depending on your relationship with your family. Alternatively, it could mean that you are overly dependent on your family, especially if the family members are in your recurring dreams." And since my grandfather was also in it, "Dreaming of your grandfather can bring reminders of past lessons in similar situations that apply to your current life. It is a reminder of how you felt when faced with similar decisions in the past. You know the difference between what is right and wrong for you, but maybe tempted by something too good to be true. Be wary. For what seems too good to be true usually turns into dramas of some sort."

Interesting, regardless on whether it's accurate or not. Honestly, I like to interpret my own dreams, because they were mine, therefor I figure I've got all the knowledge I need to figure them out. Plus, I like puzzles.

Oh? What's it look like? O.O Its just a redraw of the original raider waite cards. Same art but cleaner lines and colors. The backs are blue with yellow stars and makes it very easy to do reversed cards with because you cant tell which ones are flipped or not until you draw the card, unlike my oracle. They seem plain and basic probably, but the og art is what i connect with the most, so thats what i stuck with. Simple and functional.

Speaking of Chinese, they just added that as a language on Duolingo. I'm so excited! But first I'm going to learn German before I get to that. ^^"

I plan on getting this Animal tarot card deck soon. The illustrations are so pretty.
My best friends are obsessed with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I still don't get all the hype for it, but then again, I have yet to see an episode of it myself.

Well its definitely bizarre but i kind of enjoy the concept of stands, having another spirit be an attachment of/extension of yourself and your will. In my mind, that could very well be realistic if you replace stand with the concept of a soul/inner self/subconscious because the expression and exertion of will over the hidden is exactly what magic is and how to access it.

Oh, sounds interesting. o.o Maybe I should check it out sooner than just putting it at the bottom of the list.
