Ugh...I don't believe it! My partner and I had such different expectations of what we were supposed to present during our presentation...firstly, I was already nervous enough...seems the more presentations I do, the worse I get...but when she didn't analyse the texts, which was the whole point of the presentations....I WAS SHOCKED!! I asked her if she was going to say more, but she didn't...and actually, she could easily have, because I had already made notes on the copy of the texts which I gave her...sigh. I felt it was awful...although 2 people were quite impressed by my table...which was simply a tabularisation of what was in the text. Sigh.
And, I have another presentation next week, called "The Windsors and Princess Diana"...it's crappy because there are quite a few sessions on Diana and I have absolutely no idea where to stop because we don't want to cut everyone else out (ours is the first presentation on Diana in the seminar)..there is so much information and the problem is how to find out what's relevant...I hope my partner has a better idea of how this is supposed to work...am meeting her today at the library to discuss it. Then the guy who wants my MFC which only functions as a scanner now is coming over...it's good to clear stuff from my room. Will have to move out in July, so it's best to get rid of as much as possible. The other stuff will go to Marcus' place...will have to move stuff there gradually, because I've accumulated a lot of junk over the past almost 4 years.
I felt like crap yesterday...probably due to the weather and lack of sleep. Ended up going home after my first afternoon class because it ended early and I couldn't take it anymore. Ended up missing 2 classes, which I didn't actually want to miss...but I just felt so awful. Taking a nap did help, although it took a long time before the headache would go away. Spent the rest of the afternoon/evening researching on Diana and the Windsors...and then chatting with Marcus, Jas, Ruthie and Steffi...
Somehow it's getting harder and harder to leave Marcus whenever the weekend is up...I really cannot imagine what it will be like when I have to leave for 4 months. I'd probably cry on the plane, which would be terribly embarrassing! Even if we don't do much on the weekends, I still like his company...even if sometimes I get unreasonable when he's trying to offer me tips on playing WoW...but I guess I am a pig-headed person who likes to do things her own way...I'm glad he's patient enough to not run away...sigh. I dread the weekdays and the only way of getting through is to look forward to weekends, and I'm lucky that I have a long weekend. Still, it's tough and my room doesn't have the feeling of home which it once did.
