I have finally completed my final school group project of my life!!! Yesterday, together with my group mates this semester - Jiayi (sis), Rayne, Shawn and Wayne, I also did what may be my final presentation of my life (unless my job requires me to do so in the future). Due to my involvement with my project, I was not able to blog, sorry about that blog. Don't worry blog, I will be really free for the next few weeks and will try to update you more often.So ... what have I been doing for the past 5 days since my last blog post about the awesome Bully Beatdown show?
Thursday
I slacked for a bit to prepare for the stress which my final group project will bring me. I also jogged for the first time in 2 years!! Oh my god!!! Darryl and Jasmine (wearing the Nike shoes I won) came over to my place to accompany and motivate me to lose weight. We jogged around the big field opposite my house and it felt great! Although I stopped and walked for around half of the route he he, I think it's a good start, considering that I have not had any form of exercise (okay maybe finger exercising when i typing) for the past 2 years. I thought I would faint after the jog!! Thanks Darryl (old boss) and Jasmine for coming all the way to my house to jog with me. Will be jogging more in the future and lose 10kg by September, the day I receive my degree in Perth!! Hope I look better in pictures then, my poly graduation pic sucks!
Friday
Did my part for the project + prepared customized PowerPoint template
Saturday
All my group mates came over to my house, the usual meeting place for most of my group projects in poly and now in Uni. After slacking around for a 2 hours, we finally started serious work after lunch. We had some discussions, laughed, goofed around, watched a little tv, bought some Scratch It cards and bet on the England match (4, 5, 6 goals - yes we won!), did our assigned parts, ate dinner, watch the England match live, continue doing our parts and finally finishing all the contents of the project at 2 plus am.
Just for laughs - When Shawn and I were walking out of the carpark, he slipped on a puddle of water and I laughed at him. When we came back I slipped on the exact same spot! So pai sei!! Luckily for us, no girls were around then, only a man washing his car and we did not fall on our butt. I wonder how many people slipped on that spot. The guy washing his car must be constantly looking over to see if anyone else slipped and laughing his ass off.
Sunday
I converted the content into PowerPoint slides for our presentation on Monday.
Monday
QC (quality check) and printing of slides (for tutor) and my final school presentation! I don't know why, but after so many presentations since my poly days, I still get nervous before presentation and need a stick of cig and some Mentos (why? See below, P.S section) to calm myself down before every presentation. I call this the "SPR - Sean Pre-Presentation Ritual".
I shall end this post with a picture of my last slide of my last ever school project presentation =)
Do you have any pre-presentation rituals to share? More posts about my projects in the future =) ....
A few more weeks of online discussion and 2 papers for my final exams and I'm done!
P.S: Ya, those Mentos commercials really influenced me to think that I could do anything after eating a mentos lol
Remember these????
"It doesn't matter what comes, fresh goes better in life, with Mentos fresh and full of life. Nothing gets to you, staying fresh staying cool, with Mentos, fresh and full of life. Fresh goes better, Mentos freshness, fresh goes better with Mentos, fresh and full of life!
Mentos - The Fresh Maker!"
With Mentos I will overcome every obstacle!!
Another episode of Fighting Spiders today yeah
