From Stress to Success: Conquering My Semester Project Presentation

Last week, I was able to finish and present the project of my semester. One of the most stressful things about the course is that the presentation is almost weekly, and we would have to discuss the project and how far we have gone with it, explaining the stage we are in.

This means we have to present different presentation slides for each day we are presenting. Even though it is not a different slide, it has to be updated from what was presented last week. My group is seven (7), which is the same number as other groups. I took on the responsibility of being in charge of making the slides since I have access to the Pro version of Canva and I love making Slides. I see it as art.

Some weeks ago, I also talked about this project, in which I was planning on getting the materials and having to build the project and present it to the department in less than a week. Due to the time limitation, I spent a lot of time writing and troubleshooting the Arduino Code for the Project.

Yeah, if you taught so, another aspect in which I supported my group was also in writing and troubleshooting the Arduino Code. I also helped in the coupling of the whole project; I supplied Electricity that the group could use since I own a generator, kept the project with me, and did many of the follow-ups on the project.

I felt that my group was lucky to have me because many of them were quite carefree about the project, and sometimes it felt like they were thinking, "Oh Gifted is in our group; we don't have to stress; he would get it done". The truth is, I couldn't do it alone with the time limit I had. I was grateful I had about two others who still cared a little to work alongside me on building the project.

Regarding the project, it pains me that I did not take a picture or a video of the finished work. But it is something I can talk about anytime since I participated in the project from beginning to end.

In my defence, I was a little nervous and stammered in a way when I was trying to answer questions. I didn't know why I was that nervous because I don't find it difficult to talk publicly. I just found myself really nervous. Although I was able to answer questions directed at me, What I just did was take a breath before I replied to any question.

After the whole presentation, my coursemates and I went out to take some pictures. Unfortunately, I could not take any personal pictures, but I really like the pictures I featured, especially this picture above and the thumbnail of this post.

Talking about personal photos, I was able to take these selfies alone. I took these pictures while I was still in the Laboratory used for Project Defence. I really like the first picture, by the way.

Now let me feed your eyes with the remaining pictures I have here. 👇
