Ian's Presentation, 2nd try
Well, it appears that the journal entry yesterday didn't work and I can't delete it. I'll try again.
Ian did his graduation project presentation on making boomerangs yesterday. Here is his account of how it went.
***************************************************
Dave,
They said I did outstanding, so I guess that means they gave me an O, the highest grade! It went very well. There were three women and one man, all younger and nice. They made me feel comfortable right away. I first went in and gave them my journals, essays, and proposal binder and set up, but had to get out right away for them to look at my stuff. Right away compliments came in. After waiting in the hall for about two minutes, they called me back in to present. I had my index cards in my hands at first, but just threw them to the side and never used them. I was really, really comfortable in front of them and made no mistakes, really. They felt free to put in comments and stuff when I was talking, which made it easier. I only couldn't answer one question, and that was what specific force drives boomerangs, but they didn't care. It was supposed to be a question to get my nervous, but the guy was kidding around so much the whole time I knew it wasn't I may have been talking for ten or more minutes. They then asked me to leave the room to grade my stuff again. I was outside for a minute, then they called me in to say I did outstanding, that not one thing was wrong. They were impressed with how we met and everything. I got to keep all of the boomerangs, but they had me keep the story board there. I can get it back at the end of the year, as well as the binder with the journals and stuff. Anyway, thanks a lot for all the help...you got me an O!!!!! Tell David Hirsch; I told him you'd tell him.
I didn't think I would be as happy as I am with how I did. Its not as good
as winning the craft contest, but its close.
