The calm before the storm

[rebeccmeister]

Today definitely has that "calm before the storm" feel to it. Feedback from my committee has been constructive so far, which is good. I will have to do a lot of revision work in July, that's for sure. As scrottie put it, I still need to practice my talk about 10 more times, and work on reducing the number of times I say, "Um."

I hope there's enough to eat and drink at the potluck at my house tomorrow evening. And that my house isn't embarrassingly dirty or anything.

Hey, I said it was good, but if you practiced it ten more times it would be fantastic, but that probably wasn't even desirable.

The uncertainty about phrasing from the practice talk entirely went away when you stood up in front of everyone. You deserve your "good speaker" merit badge.
