How I felt during the projets day semi finals

Hey guys,

I am sure some of you have gone through the semi-final round today, so how did you feel before and during your presentation? Of course, how you feel after the presentation is quite predictable. You would most likely feel relieved that the presentation is finally over, or maybe you would have some regrets, regretting perhaps the fact that you were slacking (glares at some people in our class).

During and before the presentation, I admit that our whole group was kinda nervous, especially Elvis our dear old mr paranoid group leader, who kept claming that our powerpoint was simply not good enough without being able to come out with ideas to improve on it. DESPITE our countless number of times of persuasion, he still did not believe that the powerpoint was good. So, we turned to a propaganda technique...... Assertion! However, that did not work either.

Finally, the time for us to present came. We were all extremely nervous, apart from Yi Shin who does not seem to have nerves at all (don't take that literally). When we were presenting, my legs felt worse than jelly. How I managed to pull through is a surprise. However, as I was the third speaker, by the time it was finally my turn to speak, I was surprisingly less nervous. And interestingly, Elvis was kinda right about our presentation being not good enough. It may not have been what he was thinking, but our powerpoint was a little bit too long, and we therefore had to skip some slides (*sob*). However, we got mostly contrustive comments from the project judges, leaving us elated. Wish us all the best, and you guys too!
