This week in general was characterized by a lot of Danish projects. The big event in store for today was my individual five minutes presentation where I could only speak Danish. I was able to prepare a PowerPoint in addition to a general outline of what I wanted to say. I could really talk about anything I wanted; I decided to talk a little bit about my travel break including the Czech Trek and my travels with mom.
The most nerve-racking thing about the whole thing was once I was done talking my classmates and teacher could ask me questions in Danish about the things I talked about. This was probably the hardest part because I didn’t know what they were going to ask. I still think I fielded the questions pretty well and in general I was happy with my performance. This was also the “language” aspect of the class for me, and it was a huge relief to have it completed.
After Danish and my leadership class, I then headed home because I had a rather large task in front of me for the evening. As part of my marketing class, we have been working on a single project all semester. It has accumulated to about a 35 pages paper, which needed to be completely read through for clarity and general editing. Another one of my group mates and I volunteered to do this final editing of the project. Therefore, I was determined to attempt to edit the whole thing this evening; then I could send it to Emily so she could read it after me. Fortunately, our writing styles meshed rather well and there wasn’t much need for real editing. It was definitely a process to get completed, but I did somehow manage to get through all 35 pages that evening (although I was up rather late doing so).
