Welcome to "FEELINGS" with your host: Dr. Warren Fuzzy Today's Topic: SELF-ESTEEM! Warren: Hello, friends! To explore the topic of self-esteem, I've enlisted the help of two OPPOSITE PERSONALITIES! NATE WRIGHT and his older sister, ELLEN! What IS self-esteem? Simply put, it means you feel GOOD bout yourself! We can see that NATE DOES feel good about himself! And why SHOULDN'T he? He's handsome, he's smart, he's athletic, and everyone LOVES him! He's got every reason to have high self-esteem! ELLEN represents the other side of the coin! She's homely, boring and has the I.Q. of a malnourished gerbil! Ellen has LOW self-esteem! Her appearance, body language and whiny voice all send the message to the world: I AM A LOSER! Nothing ever goes right for people like Ellen! In a nutshell, everything in her life is turned UPSIDE-DOWN! Ellen: How true. Nate: Did I mention that this is only a rough draft?
