That's when I go down. Or, you know, have my last exam for the year.

I'm holding a lecture about Norwegian foreign policies after the end of the Cold War.

And the head of the history department is going to be there, judging me.

I've decided not to freak out. She said, freaking out. What I haven't decided on yet is how I'm going to cut more text from my lecture. It's too long. 3 minutes and 11 seconds too long to be precise. Part of me thinks that if I just keep it I'll probably be too nervous to speak in a calm and collected voice at the lecture and will be saved by my rushing through the first 3 pages, but somehow, it seems wrong to base my timing on that. Ideas? Hopes? Comments? General wishes of luck (these would be good)?

I'll see you on the flip side!

Break a leg


Don't worry, you will be fine. I know professors who after years of teaching still can not get the exact timing of a lecture down. If you a little long or short, they probably not be to upset at all by that; especially if they like the content.

Re: Break a leg


Good. Let's just hope they like the content! *practicing like crazy*

(Actually, that's a lie. I'm going to practice like crazy tomorrow. Today I melted my brain by watching the holiday. I think I can honestly say that I've never, ever, seen a worse movie. And I've seen a lot of bad movies.)

I actually thought people focused too much on the cold war when I was in high school. But I'm starting to find it more interesting now...

The best thing to come out of the cold war was the spy thriller genre. Spy thrillers are the coolest things ever.

Also, if I don't speak to you again before Friday, break a leg!

Good luck! It's nice to know that I'm not the only majorly stressed person right now. I'll get back to you on the champagne thing.
