We are currently working on our multimodial presentation thing and I have not noticed until now how non-tech savvy I am. Literally like the only things I know how to use are Microsoft word/slides/spreadsheets, WeVideo, Weebly, and somewhat Google Drive. I am good with art, visuals, and writing, but only when it's hands on. I don't know what it is, but when I can feel the things in my hand, it helps me work better. Even with writing. Just the pencil in my hand connecting to the paper and feeling the piece itself helps the creativity flow. I just feel like I can't see things when I can't feel them. For the Pecha-Kucha presentation we did, I noticed a lot of people using their phones for notes but me, no, I had 20 cards and each card was sort of a que in remembering what I said right when I touched it. I need to work on it because we are advancing so fast in technology and I swear almost everything is online. I've always been a crafty person and I feel like hands on things are more efficient for me because I can actually see my progress so we will see how this goes.

It's week 13, and we have one week left of this trimester. For our final project in tri 2, we've been working on our pecha kucha presentation. We read two books throughout the trimester which coincided with a topic we chose, then at the end, we did a presentation where we had 10 slides of pictures and that we were supposed to relate to our books and topic. We had to present to the class with as minimal amount of reading off of a card/paper as possible. For me, this was very nerve wracking but I really did enjoy it. I was extremely nervous throughout but I practiced the life out of what I had planned to say and instead of me having a hard time remembering what to say, I had a hard time forgetting. Throughout the length of the class, we have been encouraged to take ourselves out of our comfort zones and I feel I did just that with my topic. It was something I really felt for, but at the same time, it was something I didn't normally voice loudly due to the fear I had of other's judgement towards my opinions. I felt everything I said was necessary. I most definitely would like to do something like that in the future, and I plan to because I found that it really made me see that everything will be okay if I talk and that nobody was really judging me the way I always fear they would.
