I get nervous sometimes when I have to make a presentation.
I guess it's just getting up in front of a bunch of people does that to me. It's a confidence thing more than anything else.
You know they say failure to prepare is preparing to fail. Know your material, which I did.
I had all the facts I wanted to communicate, were right there. I felt that I articulated them well.
My problem was the audience. My audience wanted me to fail.
I must have lost them probably about half way through, Elizabeth and her Muppet.
I tried to make them comfortable, but to no avail. There you go.
articulate:发音。
to no avail:徒劳无功。
three you go:就这样吧。
fall out 吵架
over my head 搞不定
overwhelmed 不知所措
mess up 搞乱
