It actually went pretty well. Me and another girl went up at the same time and used half a board to draw our graphs just to save some time. Everyone wanted to go home so we just catered to our audience, telling them what the experiment was, the hypothesis, the results of the study, and whether or not we could reject the null.
Some people went up and went on and on with the p value, the chi-square, and the significance. No one really wants to hear all that. It's in the paper, so the teacher who is interested can read about it later. You're just doing a quick summary of the experiment.
At the end, we had actually just counted the people that had to go and were rushing them up. You could tell they didn't want to do it for one reason or another, but hey, you have to go up. :/
I used to be terrified of presentations. Especially if I wasn't prepared. I think I've learned to be a little more calm now though. I remember a couple times being so terrified that I cried or just read right off the paper the entire time. But the thing is, if you know what you're talking about, you just be casual about it and tell them the facts. There are times where you should be more formal, but for the most part, pretend like you're talking to one person. I think it comes with developing out of a shy behavior though. I used to be really shy and look at me now. :] I'm pretty much a chatterbox with anyone I'm comfortable around and can hold a conversation pretty well with a stranger. I'm more quiet but that's because of my belief in not talking unless I actually have something relevant to say. I'm not into talking just for the sake of talking. At least not in real life. Online I seem to just go on and on and on. This blog for example. xD But that's because "my computer" is more of a "listener" and not going to talk back. Or something like that.
Anyways. Enough rambling me thinks.
Entries due Sunday. I'm expecting to get one or two in the next couple days but I'm sure most people will definitely use all the time they can get to work on the challenge since it's pretty difficult.
Speaking of pretty, I looked so awesome today in my turquoise/tan/gold outfit. I LOVE gold. It's my accent every freaking day. Save my locket. I wish that was gold. Too bad it's silver. I have flats that incorporate both gold and silver and those can easily be used with a grey blouse of mine that has gold and silver. The hard thing is choosing the earrings for that. And the pants.
GAH! STOP ME! I keep rambling. x.x
Retouch my body. xD
It's stuck in my head. @
