Well, I've been accused of being obsessed too! I wonder how many more of us there are, worldwide.

I myself have admitted that I am obsessed, even though I don't post too much on this forum. Hayley just does that to you, I think. |

Hi Vanessa,
Well done in finishing with a few days to spare.
I have heard that if you imagine your audience in silly clothes it helps. But don't make them to silly. You won't be able to do anything if you have a fit of the giggles.
Good luck. I hope it goes well for you.
Jim

Jim Haha funny you should say that, I saw this from Hayley Westerner (I can't believe they spelt it wrong!) - How I Beat The Bullies!What advice would you give to somebody suffering from stage fright? "Find a situation that you’re comfortable in. The more performing that you do, the less nervous you will be, so find a friend that you’re comfortable performing in front of or a group of friends. Anyone, basically and then work your way up to a situation that seems daunting at the moment. I don’t think picturing people in their underwear does much (Laughs)." Hope the presentation goes well! Just enjoy yourself cheers, Joanne |

Hi Vanessa
Good to hear you're project is ready. The comment posted by Joanne is a very good one. If you are comfortable with what you have done it will give you confidence and that's all you really need.
What I like to do with a new presentation is to have a practice run with trusted friends. By doing that, you will be able to make sure it flows properly and, if it doesn't, make the necessary adjustments. You should also invite your friends to ask questions as that will give you a feel for how you will react on the day.
One important thing to prepare for is questions that you cannot answer should that situation arise. Remember you cannot be expected to know everything but how you deal with it is important. You may say "Sorry, I can't answer that just now but I will find an answer for you" or you could simply ask them to write the question down for an answer later.
The important thing is for you to enjoy the experience so have fun and let us know how it goes as soon as you can.
Best wishes
Grant

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! It's tomorrow!! P.S. I wanna send Hayey a letter do u know where to send it?? Haha try to relax a little, I'm sure you've prepared more than adequately!! Let us know how it goes About the letter, if I'm not wrong, I read somewhere on this forum that she doesn't have a fan mail address because of bad experiences in the past, and that any fan mail now goes through her management thing, Bedlam. I think. Something like that, anyway. I'm sure others will be able to clarify better. Good luck with that too, though! cheers, Joanne |
