I’m sure it was all the anticipation that tripped me over, (I had about 20 minutes where I knew I would have to say my name) usually when they ask my name randomly and I’m not expecting it I can say it decently in a few seconds but this was really horrible. Fortunately my classmates already knew I have speech blocks (except a new one that’s surely going to think I’m an idiot forever) but it’s always embarrassing, it’s the second day of school and I had great difficulties saying my name (not even my full name), where I live most of the tests are oral and you have to speak a lot, at least I can usually talk well in normal situations I guess it could be worse
