Thank you everyone. It went well. I was a little nervous and a little choppy but I didn't stumble and judging by the questions and reactions I think that while I wasn't the smoothest speaker, I really did generate the most interest. I got lots of great comments after and lots' of "wows".I guess I'm not quite used to presenting in front of a large audiance like that, possibly over 300 people. Normally my briefs are in front of room size audience, not auditorium size. Room size I can relate to people face to face and I relax and my charm comes out. In this setting all I could feel was a mass of people out there. I barely even made eye to eye contact with anyone.
Funny thing happened. While I'm in the middle of the presentation the photographer comes up to the podium and aims his camera at me and I guess I just stopped in mid sentence for him to take the picture. Afterwards my vice president stops to congratulate me and she said the look on my face was precious. It looked like I wanted to kill him.Which was definitely not going through my mind. I just actually froze and trying to decide if I should smile or continue naturally. I guess I couldn't decide. You never know how people read your expressions.

Congrats Nightie! I have been so much time away from the forum that I don't know what you graduated though. So, what did you finish and what shall you do now?
Heh, I just remembered when my friends finished school some time ago. I congratulated them on becoming officially unemployed.
Also, Virgil, on what subject did you give the presentation?
If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.
Congratulations, Nightshade - what's next?
Okay, so finally I took the certification exam that I was supposed to... I did fairly well...got 92/100. I was pleased with the result considering that I had not touched a text book in years.... I was in a panic state since last evening.... Thank God it is over *phew*...

Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.
I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.
