Me n ppt 4 eva

It's been a week and a half of PowerPoint presentations.  I spent 40+ hours on the presentation to the school board, and right after that I find out that I have to produce one for each of my classes this semester.  Yup, two more.  I have to present to my Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) class the process I went through to refine my Capstone Project, to find errors and problems with navigating the web site.  I also get to defend my Capstone Project to a panel of professors for my Master's degree, kind of like defending a thesis paper.  Fun schtuff.  The good news is that I have the web site AND the two presentations DONE!  (Wanna check out the final project, just click Capstone Project.)  I do still have two papers to finish, one I haven't even started, but at least I'm ready to present for both classes.  Yea!  That relieves about 33.427% of the stress I'm under these days.

You are so ahead of me! Do you want to finish my PPT's for me? I'm partially done with both of them as I keep getting distracted by finishing assignments for Zheng and his blasted portfolio. Haven't even started the 50 pager for Kirsten. :(

Send 'em right over, I'll finish them for ya. I've stopped working on the Zheng papers, I figure I've got enough done for the portfolio. I've still got to do the 50 pager for Kirsten and my Think-Aloud protocols. Which means I still have to spend a bunch of time listening to Leilani talk her way through my tasks. So, it's gonna be nothing but fun for the next few days.

Now that academic team is over, I have a bit more time on my hands. If you would like me to proofread anything for you, let me know. I've certainly gone over enough papers for enough people in the past (my ex husband, pretty much everyone on my floor of the dorm in Scotland, former students once they got to college-level work, etc.)

Writer - thanks for the offer, but it's crunch time and I don't think I'll get things finished in time for any proofreading.

Okay, well, the offer stands if you want it.
best of luck to you.

Thanks to both of you - for your offer of help and wishes for successful presentations.
One more week of stress, and then, either way, I can relax :)
