Presentations in English

so we had our first session of the Presentation in English course. So this is basically a 3-day thing, and today was the first day, and I have to say it was better than what I expected.

The trainer was an actor, trained in the Royal Academy in London, acted in plays for years, but also did his study in business administrator. He regularly provides trainings for big international companies, apart from our little course in the uni. So you can imagine how it was like, almost like the acting class we see on tv, except this one is to prepare us for the real world.

Interesting guy, really, funny too, but occasionally can be quite intimidating, although i cant really tell whether that's part of an act or... whether that's just him, but he sure got his messages across in his clear British accent.

I sat beside the only other computer scientist in the course, artis yg menang show kat austria ni, i guess dia masuk2, blur, saw me, the only familiar face there walopon actually tak kenal pon cuma selalu la terjumpa, so he came and sat next to me. So first exercise kena interview each other and randomly kitorg kena present org tu. Dia cam interested je with my story about my being a subtitlist, tp dia tak cerita pon psl dia menang show yg cam akademi fantasia tu, and keluar album, masuk sehati sedansa bla2 tu, cume crita dia suka music je, nyanyi, main piano, compose, dgr etc. Takpela, segan nak cerita kot...

So there, syukur, just 3 sessions, although each one is from 9am to 6pm! Cant wait for it to end, nak cepat2 kumpul credit ni, risau, byk sgt yg still tka cukup ni.
