Practice Practice Practice

So tomorrow is the debut of my first of 2 forty minute presentations in my Software Testing class. Fun fun!

I loathe giving serious presentations. I can get up in a room full of people and talk about celebrities, pop culture, weddings, POOP and even sing awful karaoke songs for an extended period of time. When you give me something serious that I don't fully get - I choke.

I just sat in front of my computer and went through my slides while reciting what I planned to say OUT LOUD to my dogs.

How sad.

Lucky for me, I clocked my performance at 27 minutes. I'm presenting with a partner (who I think just fell off the boat) so he can take the rest.

I did a preliminary run for CAG and Ryan (thanks guys!) and it was TERRIBLE. So I made some notes and changes to my presentation and still choked. I was talking to my dogs!!

Ugh - this isn't going to go so well tomorrow.
