Uncle! Uncle!
I forgot to post! Sorry :/
I presented on September 27th (Monday). I had been dreading the Q&A at the end, because Benny's in my class, and I knew he would have lots of questions - probably ones I didn't know the answers to.
He likes being critical of other people.
Well, my prediction came true. I got up and presented (I chocked a little at the beginning, but everyone says they didn't hear it.), and came around to my questions and answers period. four hands shot up - one of them was Benny's. I took care of the other questions first. It actually wasn't that difficult, because I had researched my topic so much and whittled my presentation down so much, and I was able to respond to the questions. After Benny asked his third question (with no intention to stop), Mr. Correa cut him off, because I think he saw how nervous I was and heard how fastidious the questions were for an initial presentation.
I felt like it didn't go as well as I'd hoped, but several people came up to me afterwards and said I had done a very good job, so I guess it went okay.
Because I have the power of knowing the future since this postdated post, I can say that I submitted my Questbridge application on Friday. Getting that and the SAT Physics Subject Test I took Saturday off my shoulders has brought me so much relief. This week it TREK, so the only thing stressing me out right now is freshman intros. I have to teach myself how to breathe normally again this week.
