power point

I have to give a 1hour presentation at school tomorrow. This would normally be no serious problem especially since I know my topic more than well.  To give the listeners an opportunity to familiarise themselves with the ideas I handed in my 10page long memo 3days before the final deadline. And prepared my self for the preparation of the power point.

I had asked my visual wizard friend for some tips for the layout. Instead of giving me few ideas he designed a big part of the frames and all I had to do was to follow his lead and finish the rest – easily done.

Then the text. In fact then the presentation. I sat in front of my laptop early on Saturday morning and stared at the screen. Almost two hours later I took my training bag and went to the gym.

Saturday is a good day to do laundry. 2h30 gone. Back at staring at the screen.

Getting ready for dinner. 1h gone. Turn of the computer.

On Sunday morning I forced myself to get up early enough to do work before the days long run. 5slides done. Progress.

After shower, waiting to leave for coffee. 2slides done.

A break between coffee and going to work. 7 slides done.

This morning I had no option but to finish the presentation. There would be no other time.

86 hours after starting the power point it was finally done.

A record I assume.
