Classmates
While listening to the introductions of the papers that have been written for the final, I found myself wanting to read several of them. Numerous students choose rather interesting topics and I honestly wanted to read their final paper, although I am rather overwhelmed with finals. I have to say, the cupcakes with the strawberry on top were amazing! I think I ate more that I was supposed to but they were addicting!

Presentations
The presentations went over surprisingly well today. I was a little concerned considering the limited number of people that have shown p to class for the past few weeks. I thought that a considerable amount of people would completely forget about the project. Overall most of the presentations were well done. The food was awesome!
I am also very pleases with how our personal presentation went as well.

Attempting to focus

Attempting to focus
As the weather gradually becomes warmer and warmer I am finding it more and more difficult to focus. The funny thing is, now is the time that you need to focus the most, exams are three weeks away. The way I look at it is in order to achieve the goals you want in the future sometimes you have to sacrifice now. No amounts of sunny days, clear skies or annoying friends are going to keep me from those goals. Sometimes people forget that all diamonds start off in the rough.

Khan Project
I have to admit the khan deadline has come much faster than I anticipated. I was primarily focusing on completing my paper and completely forgot about the khan project. Although this project is rather simple in comparison to the formal paper considering there is no paper. In my opinion I would much rather give a formal presentation than write a paper. I find is much easier and much faster as well. Over all I am actually excited about this project and giving a presentation in the library.

Presentation Reflection
(Given: 3/31/08)
The presentation had some very interesting information. Although I was rather disappointed with the number of technical difficulties encountered. It seems as if the presentation would have not only been more entertaining but more informational as well if the pictures would have worked in the PowerPoint.
I am impressed though with the presenter’s ability to portray the information amusingly without the use of pictures. He seemed to be incredibly disappointed that his artwork did not appear.
On a side note I was rather frustrated with the number of people that got up a left in the middle of the presentation. That is incredibly disrespectful and distracting.
