Today and yesterday in PPD we've been doing presentation skills, thinking about the importance of things such as visuals, content, body language and tone of voice in a presentation.
Today we went onto doing a sort of acting workshop, doing breathing, voice and relaxation exercises to make us more comfortable with public speaking as we will have to do a lot of it in the future. I do get pretty nervous with presentations sometimes and found the exercises to loosen up before to be helpful, I think it depends on who youre talking in front of though, im not sure if i find it easier with strangers or people you know.
I need to do some finishing touches to the river island project and do the image manipulation exercises, but on a good note we signed for our house next year today!!!! Its in Hyde park and theres quite a lot of people we know living round us, which should be good for houseparties and stuff. Worrying quite a bit about money next year because I have to pay my own accomodation, which comes to more than my loan. Its really unfair that the gov't expect students to live on such a small amount, my parents can give me a bit of money but if they couldnt i'd be struggling as I wouldnt be able to work as much as I would need to to get by without my work suffering. Whats the point in doing a degree if you can't give it your all?
Try saying this fast
I'm not a pheasant plucker
I'm a pheasant pluckers mate
And i'm sitting plucking pheasants
Cos the pheasant pluckers lare
