Just got back from a pretty damn easy exam in uni. Had to watch a five minute clip of THX-1138 and write an essay about the film language therein which, as you can imagine (if you've seen it), isn't exactly the hardest film to analyse.

As for the rest of the day (altogether now);

They're horrible things. I got nerves at the last minute for the last one I did, which wasn't really much fun. Looking forward to this one then. It's only gonna be in front of about 10 people, so won't be quite so nerve-wracking.

lol

as for presentations you just need to overcompensate and say everything twice as loud as you normally would, that usually quells my nerves. And move your hands alot and make eye contact with random people so you don't look so much like a rabbit in headlights

Had an MRI on my brain today... I have to say, I have never felt more ****ing relaxed in my life. I know that's really weird to hear, because usually it's the polar opposite. Because, I'm like the opposite of claustrophobic... big, wide open spaces make me feel very uneasy and nervous. So being in a very small machine with a thing clamped around my head, with headphones on (listening to Pink Floyd, mind you... he asked me what I wanted to listen to, and I figured it fit... it was great), laying on what I thought was a very comfortable, padded "bed" thing for 45 minutes was very relaxing to me. It was great. I felt stoned, for lack of a better explanatory expression... then after that, myself, my mom and my aunt went to go visit my gram (who just got out of her second round of chemo), and found she's doing really well, which is goddamn fantastic. I made pasta and sauce. Good times, good sauce. Spending the day with her and Pop and Mal tomorrow. Making pasta & clam sauce. Life, ironically with a lot of bad **** going on, seems very good as of late. Plus I got the day off school and my MRI tech was a cool guy.

You're very brave, my mother had one of those scans recently and her reaction was the opposite to yours. She said the noise the machine made would have rendered my borrowed iPod ineffective
I'm not claustrophobic but I think even I would have had a hard time with it, it sounds like being slotted into a narrow torpedo chamber to be launched or something.

It is. I had one many many years ago - couldn't imagine willingly getting in one of those things again.
