The harsh reality

In the class on Monday, we mainly focused on working as a group for our upcoming presentation. We were introduced to the website that leads to finding good photos. It is in the google group dashboard so I will refer to them whenever I have to do so.

I am very worried about the fact we are behind the schedule. Surely, we got the pictures, planned what to say, but still have to work on the conclusion and limitations. We also have to check out each other's speeches. I am very nervous as I am not very good at talking in front of many people, especially the fact I cannot keep notes paper with me. This is something I must come over with but is also something which is hard to overcome because I do not have many chances to speak in front of a bunch of people.

We also discussed with Mr.Paterson about our presentations. We thought we were okay, but we were told each person's statement was weak and should be more supportive of the main statement. Also words such as "most" has a very vast meaning, so it should not be used in cases like presentations. Listening to what Mr.Paterson said, I greatly agreed about it. There were lots of things we learnt from it. However, the reality and words that appeared in front of us were something very harsh, and hard to improve, because it already was our best standard. I am guessing that we must speak to each other and discuss about this a little further. All I am feeling about the presentation so far is the nervousness plus anxiety. I can feel that I am improving but, still there are lots of points where I am not very confident with yet.
