The Night Before the IOP!!!!!!!!

Tonight, I rehearsed my speech, which without the class interaction, took exactly ten minutes so I am really hoping that I won't talk too fast. I also tried to refine my speaking a little more but caught myself saying "uh" three times. Woops.

I also decided what to do for my art piece and finshed that. I like it well enough though it isn't the best work I have done. It uses a lot of symbolism in order to depict the poem.

I wrote up both of my outlines but found that there was no assignment due on turnitin.com, which will hopefully have changed by tomorrow. I did print both of them out though. The outlines helped me organize myself a bit better and to realize in full what exactly I wanted to say about everything. After all of this I wrote out my notecards which have some bullet points and some full on paragraphs in order to save me if I get nervous and completely blank on the IOP.

I am worried about controlling the class talk and about how much time everything will take. I am just nervous about how everything is going to go and it doesn't help that I'm first. But, at least I'll have it over with, which makes me very happy.

This is the last day that I'm working on this. Yayyy. I'm going to rest up now so that I'm not completely dead during the presentation and will recite it multiple times during first period tomorrow.
