The Curtain Rises

It's almost time for my ISM Final Presentation Night! I am so excited to share all the progress that I have made this year, but as we draw closer to the date, I am feeling more and more nervous.

I think that it will just come down to doing some extra practice before my speech. I plan to run through it at least 4-6 times before Tuesday night. I'm going to do this alone and in front of my mom. I have some quick edits to make to my slides, based on the feedback I got from my practice speech. I also have to make some edits to my digital portfolio to include my final product.

I have also spent a lot of this week inviting people to my presentation. Generally, most people have said "yes", and many of them have been integral to my ISM journey (research interviews, observations, etc). I'm also excited to have my family there because I haven't shared my ISM journey with them (or at least not in as much detail as I have compared to my mentor, reserach interviews, etc).

The final big thing I have to do is visit the room where I am giving my final presentation to go over how the projecter works.

The curtain has almost risen! See you next week,

Ashley
