so close...but not yet there...

Day 5... it's been almost 2 weeks now since my group reported for our MWF class in Economic History of Modern Japan. Out of the 5 members, we're still listening to reporter #4's part!(she's just halfway: 35 powerpoint slides to go)... i'm reporter #5. i thought that i'd be able to report this week but i was dead wrong! i was happy and sad at the same time: happy because i've been dreading to report in front of the class (until now, i still tremble while speaking in public!); sad because it's been days and days of prolonged agony.

sometimes, i swear, for the past several days, i've been having nightmares of me messing up in my report!!! the madness is overwhelming. i've rewritten my report in different sizes of index cards during the last week, and i'm never satisfied. i've edited my powerpoint presentation several times already, and i can't seem to get it right. i've tried to add more content to it, but in the end i'd just remove the additional stuff, anyway. i'm so obsessed with getting this report out of the way.

*sigh*

on monday, classes are cancelled due to a national political event, so i'm safe from doing the report. on wednesday, reporter #4 will continue her report...and reporter #3 will report an additional topic that he somehow missed out. my teacher keeps on interrupting the report with her comments and clarifications. some of my classmates will ask questions during the report(which i think is still weird, because questions should be brought up until the end of the whole group report!) class will only last for 50 minutes. i bet, i'll be reporting on friday, the 29th (Day 7)!

i'm tired from waiting and waiting! i just want to get this report done right away, so i can breathe normally again!... it's so stressful!... i have other things to do in other subjects!... i also have an economic research paper to worry about!... i need a hug.
