so that presentation I was telling you all about went pretty well. I wont tell you it was the most polished presentation ever given (or even the most polished one given that day), but what I do know is this: it wasnt graded, and its over now. and thats good enough for me.
as for my nerves, I experienced the same hands-shakiness that seems to happen any time I have to talk in front of the class. oh well. I kind of wish that didnt happen. its weird. but its not too debilitating so long as I dont have to write anything, so I guess Im not too worried.
in other news, I want a laptop. I also want a tablet. or maybe the two combined. Ive been telling myself lately that one of these days (probably many years from now) Im going to get myself one of those new tablet pcs. if you dont know what Im talking about, theyre essentially laptops with precise touch sensitive screens that can flip around and fold back down over the keyboard so that only the screen is showing. you then use a stylus to write directly on the screen. they are good for note-taking and very good for image editing, too. theyre coming out this year, and by the time I can afford one theyll probably be pretty damn cool.
sigh.. now we play the waiting game.
