Presentation

Mar 18, 2005 16:34

I feel a little better about my presentation for Monday. I just spent the last 2 1/2 hours setting up the Power Point. It wasn't as hard a I thought it would be, and at this point the presenation is pretty much done except for a quick introduction and conclusion, which I'll write tomorrow. I'm also going to fiddle around with it tomorrow at work and see if I can figure out how to include screencaps, which would be a nice addition and take up some extra time as well. But if I can't, no real biggie. I figure I'll spend some time tomorrow evening practicing, but I also purposely set the slides up so that most of what I have on them is in full sentences I can just read off. One of my biggest problems in giving presentations is my tendency to stutter and babble when I try to talk without a script, so it's better for me to just read off the screen and be thought a somewhat unsophisticated presenter than to try and extrapolate from notes and bullet points and babble like an idiot.

Now, however, I'm going to go home, heat up some leftovers, finish up some work for Dr. Thesing, and then relax for the rest of the night. I didn't think I'd get a chance to, because I figured the presentation would take much longer to set up, but truth is I really need it right now, so I'm going to enjoy my evening.
