praise
I had Business Communications tutorial today, and it was my turn to present an article for my group, along with another group member. If you are unsure as to what Biz Comm is about, we learn how to write proper persuasive/assertive/negative emails/messages, how to present properly and all those rubbish.
So then, after the 3 groups in front of me had presented, it was our turn. The last group. I was presenting the last part of the article. And the minute I started to present, the whole class went "woah!" and then there was a sudden flurry of movement, and then it seemd that most people started to wake up. And my professor was the one that really made me laugh. When I started to present, she stood up, looked at me with such attention, and then kept smiling and nodding and looking somewhat overwhelmed or mesmerised, I would say, that I got scared.
And then I was thinking that maybe I was speaking too fast or smth along those lines. But after the presentation was over, my prof said that my voice was mesmerising and commanded attention. In other words, it was loud enough to be confident and make people listen. Then she said something that made me laugh. She said my voice was so deep and loud and low that it was a pleasure listening, because it sounded sexy.
And I wanted to die of laughter. I know my own voice too well. Its one of those extreme ones. Either you hate it or you love it. And I have known of a lot of people who hate it. So I thought it was damn funny, and that she was criticising me. But apparently she wasn't.
Well, that was about the only praise I have gotten since sem started, considering the fact that I think I am not a good student at all, skipping school like no one's business. Recently, however, I have been attending more lessons.
On another note, the girlfriend and I just had our 6 months together, and this was what she gave me. It is sweet, because I seldom get stuff from her.

This is a heart-shaped box, with double chocolate chip and pecan nuts cookies in it. My absolute favourite! It's a wonder i don't get fat. Thanks, darling!
Although we have also pretty much been quarelling slightly more, things are different now in that we know why we are quarelling and we try to get down to explaining why we quarrell instead of just letting tempers fly. So I would say it is a huge improvement. The girlfriend says to give her 1 week to get rid of it all, I am giving her 2 weeks.
Because love knows no boundaries and no limits.
