white as stone
so i had an incredible day today. it started with yesterday and the pure amount of work that seems to be getting larger and larger. Well, today, i am hoping it came to a climax. ChE is killing me and my classmates quickly and without regard to anything. So yeah, i had a ton due today and we didn't procrastinate in doing them and an all nighter was still pulled...again? :) Anyway, all i wanted to do last night was give up and go to bed...well i didn't give up and i'm glad about that. The entire last couple of days i have been working straight and we had a presentation today and when we were practicing my group member did an awesome job and i did not...i was acting very nervous (even though i like presentations) and couldn't get across my knowledge of our topic and the data analysis with it. Anyway, that was a bit frustrating and also a bit daunting for our upcoming presentation to the class and for a grade in the next hour...Anyway, i said a calming prayer and really let my worries and fears be subsided by believing in God's strength and his will, in a way, for me. After i got back from the bathroom, we started our presentation and the teacher picked who went first out of the two presenters and i really wanted to go 2nd because i had a handle on that better...and luckily, our teacher picked my other group member to present first - awesome. Then he did a great job and passed the presentation to me and my group members said my presentation was so much different than when i had practiced it .. and i could tell, too. i felt very much more confident and it just turned out really well. The day of all bad things turned out not to be too bad...However, i did forget to mention the quiz we took before our presentation, it was 2 questions and I didn't know the first one and didn't know all of the second....so no good. anyway, i had such a bad night and morning, but the good thing with time is that it keeps going :) meeting challenges is exciting .. even if you only recognize it after the challenge has been met.
