Presentation Day!
Days of preparation, stress and emotions finally paid off today when it was my turn. I set up all my stuff with he help of some girls and that made me feel a little more at ease than I did when i first stood up. Although the whole class was sitting (hopefully) in suspense waiting for me to get finished and start, I started getting a little more nervous. Then when I realized I left the poster in the car is when i really started to panic. That right there taught me to always be prepared and never forget anything. I had made that poster as a reference for a specific line I said in my talk and if it wouldn't have been there what I was talking about would have made no sense. I think that the more props the better due to the fact that visual understanding is most peoples easiest way of giving things definition. Like I said in class my biggest struggle was that I knew I had to impress more than any other gal in the class to due the fact that not everyone was even interested in what I was talking about. Its funny how you can let a comment from someone make you feel less knowledgeable or doubt yourself when really you know your going to do fine. Just staying confident and clear minded I think that you are able to fool the audience because really inside your shaking so bad. They don't have to know if you don't let it show right. I think that my presentation went fabulous. I practiced and practiced at home with Lisa, my mom whoever I could get to listen and do there toes I did. Every time I was in my car I would also do the whole talk, I would watched the clock with the timer of my light in mind and was so surprised today when I sat down I felt like all the practice was tedious because I realized then and there that I knew what I was talking about and I knew I was comfortable with presenting it and so my confidence level is what made me do well I think, to me at least. If I didn't make everyone want to book a party right then I at least educated them in a fun relaxed way on what is a big part of my life.
