a disaster that still works?

for some reason the chair introduced/invented the title of my speech as "coming your way" when i'd told her it was called how to groom a horse. (at least someone showed some creativity).

feedback

next times = we ALL agree the laptop was useless unless projected (and, also my i-talk recording effort didn't work and was obvious when i tried to start it). hoof photo should have been larger than life and mounted on the back wall (this from the person who put me on the agenda at 2pm the afternoon prior to the presentation?!). even more legitimately she also adds that if chair had provided background i would not have had to. the timer did not tell me how long it was and i forgot to look for the green/amber/red while speaking and thus i have no clue how long it was. one person commented that use of props suit objectives of project 5 more so than 8 (tho the manual does suggest props for 8. perhaps i was too dramatic with mine?).

all that said, mr. Toughest feedback provider said "a wonderful, informative and interesting speech clearly and animately presented. be careful about deprecating yourself during i.e. "thank you for listening to my LITTLE presentation..." you are a great speaker and having fun at your task makes you nice to listen to."

other did wells = good intro of why grooming is important. good way of emphasizing key points i.e. relax/circulation etc. good enthusiasm, clarity, presence and eye contact

in the table topics my scrabble dictionary word was monk. i am pleased with the way i incorporated the required them of shoestring budgets and word of the day as in "eke" out a campaign with existing resources in my left brain marketing commercial. dang it, no trophy tho!
