19. Finally, final presentation

It was a sunny Wednesday, I woke up with the sound of the birds...
Ok I was trying to be funny. I did not woke up with the sound of the birds.
First I woke up with the sound of my alarm which is very annoying.
Then Nil called, she asked if I am coming to breakfast or not.
This happens every morning, every morning we call each other and ask each other if we are going to breakfast or not.
Every time we convince each other to go to breakfast.
It is a very good habit to go to breakfast because it makes you more energetic and you go to every lecture by the help of breakfast.
Then Ayşe texted me about out meeting at 8.00 am in the cafeteria so I had no excuse to spend more time in the bed.
I got out of the bed and got ready and run to the cafeteria.
Nil was waiting for me and no one was there so I took an açma and coffee and then Ayşe and Bahar came.
They also got their açmas and coffee and our meeting started.
Everything was clear and fine, we have gone through for the last time and then we were ready.
After NS we went to the English class.
First there was the Truman Show presentation.
They were really nice and actually watching them made calm because I realize that there nothing to be worry about, we are going to stand there and we are going present what we have prepared.
It was our turn.
We made a good start I guess.
I tried to slowed down myself according to Sonja's advices.
Everyone in our group was aware of what they were doing and did not become nervous.
Therefore I think we made a very good presentation.
Just a small confession; we managed to meet more for our practice presentation but although we could not meet a lot, we were well organized and we did our best.
Thanks to my teammates for being nice all the time and my friends for listening us with respect...

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 : )

17. About the final presentation

At the beginning I thought that presenting a short story is harder than a movie because you have more to read. However now I think it is harder to present a movie because you don't have everything in front of you. You need to watch and write every single detail very carefully. To catch the small jokes, sometimes you need to go back and watch it again, watch it again and watch it again. Thank god that all the movies that we are presenting are fun to watch and also fun to think about them. Although we shared the topics in our group, we need to be more aware of the general information about the movie. Anyways, enough with the complains lets move on with the positive parts. Our movie is "The Full Monty" and I am watching it for the first time. It was the only movie that I did not watch before so I am a little bit lucky, I am watching a new movie. If you wonder my first impression about the movie, it was very funny but in a different way. You feel sorry at the same time. Also the accent that actors and actresses use is very hard to understand so it was not very easy to follow the subtitles and watch the movie. However I am glad that our presentation movie is "The Full Monty".
