Had my project presentation in network security this afternoon. I was the last student to go out of the 6 students in my class. I spent most of the week preparing the slides, putting the data into a coherent format, and practicing my presentation. It lasted 20 minutes, and didn't go nearly as bad I as I feared. Praise God!

Basically, I was worried the professor or fellow 3rd year classmates would grill me on some aspect of my project that I wouldn't be able to explain very well, or would question some methodology that I used during the experiments. Luckily, they spent most of the time nodding, and the few questions that my professor did ask I had answers for.

Returned to Davis later in the evening and stayed at home to work on my research papers.
