Mar. 21st, 2009 11:26 pmWell, another presentation out of the way, at least.
My classmates have said I did well but...I really don't think so. I talked way too fast, because I was nervous (and I was a little bit over time-wise when I was practicing to myself, and wanted to make sure I stayed under the time limit). I had a very hard time fielding questions too. Twice I misunderstood the question and probably sounded like a dope. I think about the only advantage to all of this was that I got some experience, and it's over now.
Didn't win any funding from it either (there was a bit of funding money for the top two presentations). Considering how I did, I'm not really all that surprised. I'm starting to get used to disappointment.
