Unless the rubric specifically forbids it, you might give your speech about your lack of valuable experiences. Take a sort of confused, self-deprecating, humorous, but hopeful tone that looks to the future. Start out with your "hook" being about the "typical" speeches that people are going to give: finding Jesus, parent's divorce, summer camp, joining the military, graduating high school, etc... then move into how those don't really apply to you. Then go into a spiel about how your life is sort of pathetic and boring and entirely too typical of young Americans of this generation. Then move into a look to the future where you basically beg for life changing experience and hope that you'll grow into someone who has actually had an experience worth talking about. Speech done.
