Today, there was a presentation session for all the students in the biology departments, where the higher class biology students had to do oral presentations on their papers. The session took place from 9 AM to 3 PM (4 PM if clean up time was counted in). I prepared for my speech the whole night and I even remembered my whole speech without the necessity for note cards, and I thought everything was going to go smooth.

But nope, once it was my turn, I got nervous, stuttered and even skipped few points that I have to quickly think of a place in my speech to “shuff” those points back in! Well that was then, the exciting and sort of embarrassing moment (but now it just make me laugh) were over and time to take a break from studies for now!

Have you ever had those moments where you thought you were ready but still had some bumps on the way?
