I'm nervous. Really nervous.
Tomorrow I have to give a presentation in front of a smallish crowd of probably 30 people. Despite my extreme shyness, I thought I was okay with it - I really did! But I'm beginning to feel extremely jittery. I think that if it were a group of peers, I'd be less nervous, but my brain has decided to finally acknowledge the fact that I'll be speaking in front of mostly older men that have been in the industry longer than I've been alive...and I'm scared. Officially. I mean, these guys nice and all, but they still scare magic petunias out of me. To make matters worse, this is the first time I've ever done anything remotely close to a presentation. Yup. Apparently I don't wade in - I jump in.
I *think* I'll be okay if I can keep my nervous giggle habit at bay.
Okay. Calm. Deep breaths.
Nope. I'm still as nervous as a Longbottom in potions class.
