Intense Morning



An intense morning to equal an intense night.
I was supposed to present information about all the work I'm doing around MySpace at our bi-weekly marketing meeting. However, partly due to my lack of sufficient PowerPoint experience during my post-collegiate years, my initial presentation was less than stellar. After another go, I got my groove back and was able to compose quite an interesting presentation. However, it didn't get instant approval, and so I was completely unsure if I was actually going to present it at this week's meeting.

[insert dilemma here]

So the night before the meeting, after months of anticipation, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix came out in theatres. I, of course, got tickets to the midnight show. My stomach churned from the realization that I could, of course, have to present my semi-stellar slide show to the entire marketing team the next morning, with roughly four hours of sleep and little preparation. After all of that exhausting worrying I didn't have to present after all. But, I did learn my lesson. Know when to play and when to put the toys away.


I'll be presenting in two weeks, so I'll let you know how that goes.
