18. Our final presentation

I don't understand why I am out of luck.
I don't like to be a whiner but I guess I should do it this time.
My close friends know that I am not the luckiest person in the world but I am thankful for everything I have and I good coincidence that I have gone through.
However, when I miss the boat or shuttle for a stupid reason I feel sad.
You might say that these are very little things but when it happens all the time, I feel bad.
So, what is the relation between my luck and Eng 101 presentations, let me tell you.
Our practice presentation was on December 9, which was the next day of my birthday.
I am not a celebration kid but come on, no one wants to work on a homework or a presentation during their birthday.
I did not mention this or complain about this because I had wonderful teammates. I told them about this issue 1 month before the presentation and they accepted to work on the presentation before that day. Our presentation was ready 2 days before the due date.
For the final presentation everything was the same.
I had my high school reunion before the presentation day, which means I was out, I had fun, I saw my friends together. (You might say you could go and see time later but it is not the same, everyone goes to different schools, lots of them are studying abroad so that night was also important for me.)
Anyways, I came back to school at 00.30 and I met Ayşe. We were almost done but we had to add some pictures and talk about some details. I went to her study room, everything was wonderful, we had music and also water. So we started to work. It was 3.30 am when I was leaving and Ayşe was saying that I am going to practice more.
I hope everyone will love our presentation and it would worth...
I know from high school, sleeping is not the most important thing, you could live without it : )

10. Something about our presentation

We did our presentation and now I am writing what I feel about our presentation.
As my classmates know, we presented a short story called "The Man Who Was Almost a Man".
As I mentioned during our presentation first I don't like the story because I didn't read it carefully. But then I read it carefully and I found it interesting. I tried to understand Dave etc etc.

Let's move on with the presentation...
Ayşe, Bahar and Onur were in my group and we worked a lot on our presentation. We met 3 times. Some of them were not very efficient but even those meetings we came up with lots of different ideas.

It was really easy to share who is going to present what, we were very kind to each other.
Moreover everyone did what they supposed to do so I was very lucky, responsibility is the most important thing with those kind of project.

In addition to these as a group we did our best.

For self evaluation, I guess I should be honest to myself.
I have problem and I don't know how to fix this and also I guess I don't want to fix it anyway because I feel comfortable that way.
For every kind of literature analysis, I cannot find the right answer. I have my own truths and it is very hard to find the "real or literature" truth. First I found my own truth, then the teacher says the literature truth and s/he convinces me and we move on. This has never changed. It was like this in middle school, in high school and I was very hopeful about the university but NO, I am still the same and I don't feel sad about this. For example when we read a poem, everyone make the same comment about an obvious symbol but then I make a totally different comment. Fortunately or unfortunately (depends on you point of view) this situation was same with my analysis on Dave.

About my use of language and fluency, I guess I did well. Of course I had some errors and spelling mistakes but overall I guess I was fine. Also I am sure that our final project will be better.

Thank you everyone for listening us and preparing good presentations....
