12 hours. Crap.

Twelve hours from now, I will have started my thesis seminar presentation. And I still have to finish the introduction and conclusions/discussion sections. I'm up to about 42 slides, so as long as I present at a rate of about 1 slide/minute, I should be fine. Now to finish this damn thing....:faint:

Well, I made it through it okay! It ran a little bit shorter than I wanted, but it wasn't bad. There was a clock in the back of the room that I kept staring at and think, "I need to slow down! I need to slow down!" Of course, that made me more stressed out, and I wound up forgetting a lot of what I was going to say. My professor didn't want the presentation slides to be "wordy", so I was basically doing it by memorization, having just a short sentence or sentence fragment on the actual slide. Not a bad method, but not the best when you are completely stressed out and nervous.

On the up side, I slept wonderfully on Friday night! I had gotten very little sleep the week before the seminar, so I was dead to the world on Friday night. I had been up until 2 AM on Friday morning, working on the presentation, and then got up and went to the campus at 7 AM to work on it some more.

I learned a very good lesson about procrastinating, though. Of course, I should have already learned it by now, as many presentations and class projects that I've had to do in the last several years.

Still haven't heard anything from the surgeon's office. I am probably going to email the office manager today, since it's been a while since I've heard from them.
