If two years ago, you had told me that in my last quarter at university, I'd be up to 3 in the morning writing an APA-style reference sheet of episode citations of The Simpsons and Seinfeld... would I have believed you? ;-)

At the end of this presentation, I showed the class a short clip from the motion picture, demonstrating an example of how Fanon's ideas about colonial brutality are applied in the film.

Because of the procrastination problem I had with putting off projects until the last minute at the end of last quarter, I resolved this quarter to volunteer to do projects and presentations early in the quarter, and get them done with.
Unfortunately, I did this in two classes, ENG 335 and COMM 327, and ended up having to give TWO presentations in one day! Eeek!
So I was up really late last night working on the presentations, then got up early to work on them.
At 11, I ran up to campus to meet with my COMM presentation partner, and do our final walkthrough of the presentation. Then I raced home, put the finishing touches on my ENG presentation, burned the powerpoint on a CD, raced to class, gave my presentation on Frantz Fanon & Algeria (see previous LJ entry), then raced home again because I forgot the tape measures I needed for my COMM presentation. Raced BACK to school, parked illegally in the lot, raced up to COMM class, and gave my presentation there on Nonverbal Communication & Proxemics. Whew.
After class, I went back to my car, and saw I had a parking ticket - I was expecting it, but I don't care it was totally worth it to go get the tape measures - and came home.
Whew!
Both presentations were well-received, though I won't know my grades on them for a while. I'm just glad they're done, and I don't have to stress about doing these for the rest of the quarter. Yay!
Now I just want to crawl into bed and sleep...
