Presentation Experience

Hello,

I want to talk about my experience when i had presentation during Nutri Food Fair on 16 July 2009 in my university UCSI. In the food fair i did a presentation about the adverse effect of the food combination of chocolate and soda drinks.

For the preparation of the presentation, it was very stressful moment where there was only one group who wanted to present. So in the end i asked my group to do the presentation and they agreed. Our first and second topic was rejected because there were no evidence on the topics. And then one of our teacher suggested to try combination of chocolate and soda drinks topic because it was rarely talked in front of the public. My group agreed about that topic and started to discuss the allocation of the assignment. My part was to do the presentation, and the other two members did the hard copy (student A) and the slide presentation (student B). At first i was very excited but when the process preparing the hard copy, there was a little arguments because there was only one member did the hard copy (student A) and the other one only do the slide presentation (student B). Then i tried to help by adding some sources to the hard copy. Even me and student A were mad with student B who only did the slide presentation but we tried to do our best to do the hard copy. Student A was very mad because student B's job was very easy and student B did not give some help. Then i also thought that it was my job to do the slide presentation because i was the one who will do the presentation. Two weeks before the presentation student A finally can finish the hard copy and i tried to understand all of the sentences. Student B started to do the slide presentation. At the same week, my group had a trial before do the real presentation in front of the public. This trial was useful to reduce my tension, but there were a lot of problems in the slide presentation such as grammar problems and the contents were a little bit different with the hard copy one. I and student A were very stressed at that time where we had to finish up three assignments at the same time. We stayed until 8 o'clock in the library to do the slide presentation. This was my first time to feel very stress with my assignments because there were a lot of things to do and i could not think clearly. Then the week for the presentation came. I tried to relax before the day of the presentation. But it was not successful where the student A kept giving me pressure because student A forced me to see other groups' presentation and kept asking about my preparation. I was prepared but student A still gave me pressures so i could not relax and i was too tired because i need to work also for the Nutri Food Fair.

Here i want to attach my video during the presentation but i could not because the video's file was very big. It was a good experience because this is the first time i had my presentation in front of the public although only few people came but it was interesting. At that time i was shaking and could not spoke clearly because i was so nervous. At the end of the presentation, the judges kept asking questions to our group. We answered the questions even it might not satisfy the judges but we already done our best to answer the questions. At the end of the presentation i felt very guilty to my group members because i did not do the presentation very well, i was too nervous. But i thanked them for all of their hardworking to prepare the presentation. At the end i had my experience and it was very precious experience.

That was my experience during the Nutri Food Fair presentation. Thank you for reading my blog and have a nice day.
