End of PW

With the end of OP signals the end of PW

It was around 2.30pm

We were the last group in the afternoon session to be presenting

We were the last group in our class to do our OP

I was the last speaker of the group

I was the last to answer the Q n A

I was the one to close the curtain on PW for our class

Through the OP,i found weird points about myself

I'm more nervous waiting for my turn to present rather than when i'm presenting

I do too many hand gestures

I smile unconsciously even when i'm presenting a serious topic

(remembers my powerpoint on suicide caused by depression)

I guess i no longer fear public speaking as much as before

Thanks to the training in JC

CCA time was a weekly time i could pratice public speaking

Though it's only to about 20 people

Making announcement during morning assembly was another example

(Remember my "No money,No song" announcement?)

Would never get the courage to do it last time

Would have push it to my president to give the announcement

Remembered making a speech in Sec 3

All because Samson didnt want to do it

I was FREAKING nervous!!!

I just want to get it over and done with

My legs were literally shaking

I dared not look at the audience,only at my script

(That means my awareness of audience is AE)

On to what happened during my OP

My group was the second group in the afternoon session

I rather go first and watch the second presentation with any worries

However,it may be to our advantage

I felt our presentation was much better than the group before us

Maybe not much better

But better...

In terms of both the powerpoint slides and the script

Personally,i felt having Mr Lim as one of the assessor was a good thing

Not that because he's our CT and would give us good grades

But because it gave me some peace of mind

At least the audiences wasnt so alien to me

So before our presentation start,the moderator came in

Told myself "Shit,why did the moderator come at this time?"

It was actually a blessing though

She's really friendly

While i was doing my presentation,she smiled at me whenever i looked in her direction

I think that helped to calm me down a lot

Having Mr Lim there helped a lot as well

I guess my QnA ok...

Might have shoot my strategy a little

But at least it wasnt those horrible answwers

PW has taught me many things

And change my perceptions as well

Dr Choe made me realize many things

Certainly a life tutor

He just want us to learn the hard way and through experience

Sacrifices is needed

But there's a limit to it

Like there's a limit to everything
