I could feel the butterflies (not the Butterflies song on my blog by Mariah Carey though!!)! Oh no, it´s only an hour more before the session of my oral presentation begins!! I´ll just have to keep my fingers crossed that my mind won´t blackout or I pause all of a sudden without reason. I´m actually more concerned about the Q&A sessions. I´m pretty bad in interpreting the questions and always ended up not answering the questions.
I thought I could had an early day last night. But turned out I joined some clinicians who have collaborations with my lab to a rather expensive local grilling restaurant. The beer, wine and the beef (yeah, I just couldn´t resist in not trying beef again coz it´s just too famous here) were just too fantastic. In fact I tried a special local delicacy, blood sausage. It was ok, I won´t mind tasting it but I won´t say I love it that much. It´s an acquired taste or texture so towards the last few bites, I literally had to swallow it with red wines. Cow intestines filled with blood!Ewwww...I was only told by one of the clinicians who´ve tried that before later on after I´d swallowed down everything.According to TF, I had 4 glasses of local red wine. No wonder I felt myself walking funny. *lol* It was a nice restaurant and the clinicians were generous enough to treat me and TF for the meal (giving the reason, ¨We all know you are poor student!¨). Wow, that´s a good excuse and man, the students should stick around with rich generous clinicians more often! Nah, of course I´m just kidding.
All right, the butterflies feeling is back again. It´ll probably last till after my presentation.
