I went in without a thesis arguement. bad, Part of the problem with volunteering for an early time slot, I didn't have time to work it up to something... (in retrospect, now that I have to 2 weeks to write up the research into an essay... it looks like it will be along the lines of winners write the history, but some people champion the underdog...this guy is still a loser.)
The overhead projector didn't work so I had to write a portion of my overheads on the blackboard and read the rest... I think it would have been more clear if I'd had it written out?
My mouth was dry because I went 3rd, and by this time my water bottle was empty. ... I hate going last, I LIKE to go first...
I just felt rather lost and like I was repeating myself...
I assumed they had the same historical background knowledge of the subject as I did... which maybe they did and maybe they didn't... so maybe I skimmed a lot of stuff I should have covered more in depth...
As much as I hate them I wish we did more presentations... so that I could learn to be better prepared for them.
---- carpooling - who knows... if we don't get stuff scheduled up here?? might happen.
so what happened with your car? It showed its true colors?
