Well I'm to get some inspiration aka pack because I'm leaving tomorrow for Washington D.C. for presentation- how crazy is that?!
My first conference presentation and its International?! (that's intimidating) good thing I'll have my professor with me :)
Now if only my fear of flying would go away....things would be much easier. I would appreciate any tips anyone has about dealing with nerves!!! Either for presenting or my fear of flying...guess I'm overcoming a lot of fears lately since I never liked public speaking either! (I have to admit I'm getting much better) What is about a group of kids that I can be in front of no problem but a bunch of people my age and i'm tongue-tied and terrified.
I'll leave everyone with another one of my "Kid-isms" from today: (these never fail to make me smile):
Reading from a poem in the hall, it was about the student's sister-
The line read, "She is as beautiful as a puddle." ???????
Also, anything I HAVE TO SEE in D.C?????????? Thanks in advance!

Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI don't like speaking in public either but I kind of got over the fear when I had to talk in front of about 300 people lol.
Don't worry about flying, I have flown a lot. Just do stuff to preoccupy your mind. Magazine, chew gum, listen to music.
