Last night I stayed up working on a fabulous presentation for my Jazz Appreciation Class.
Honest to God I think it was the most amazing presentation I've ever put together in my life.
You know how people say stuff about having to do something to save their life.... "sing to save her life..."
This power point was so good, it could have saved my life and two others, no joke.
So anyway about 5:30 am I finally finished and saved my amazing power point, copied it to my hard drive and took a nap before my 8:30 class.
FAST FORWARD --->
8:30 AM Yes...I think I got out of bed at 8:34 for my 8:30 class. I dragged out of bed, grabbed my hard drive and sprinted across campus to class. I walked in at 8:42 and tried not to fall asleep as everyone else gave their presentations. It came to my turn and I got up to give the best presentation of my life.
There were two small problems
1) My power point didn't save on my hard drive. IT WAS GONE!!! :/ My entire presentation was missing.
2) I couldn't remember the name of the guy I did my presentation on.
Lucky for me, I am a critical thinker and was able to solve both of these problems.
Solution for problem 1) I gave my presentation from memory.
2) I didn't use the guys name.
Solution 2 sounds like it wouldn't work, but I did in fact get away with it. :) I avoided using his name at all, hoping that someone would let it slip out, but no one did.....UNTIL: I started talking about the album that I was reviewing and my favorite classmate Lacey mentioned that she was doing the same BILL EVANS album. :) She saved my butt and didn't even know it. :)
Guess who got an A on their presentation? I DID!
