Before I start writing
today’s post I would like to ask all my tech wizard readers on how to reduce
the size of a file, MS word or PDF. I am supposed to upload some of my credentials
on a website and they specified that the data size be 100KB. I have no clue how
to reduce a 1MB file to 100KB. I am so confused. And I need to submit
within the next 10 days. Help!! Please help me people…. Thank you
My presentation was
yesterday and people said I did more than okay. However I felt that I did below
the standard I had set. I had practiced for days and I knew what I wanted to
say but standing in front of less than 15 people caused me to still shiver and I
forgot what I wanted to say or how I planned to say them. I wanted to be
interesting and funny so that the attention of my audience won’t waiver but I ended
up being the same boring person I think I am. At a point I even heard my voice
shaking, I had to shake it off immediately. I also had a case of butterflies in my tummy too.
But all in all with all my
flaws I think I did okay too. At least I was able to answer the questions and practiced public speaking again. Thank God. Also the outfit I wore was rocking.
I planned on having a friend take me pictures but apparently my battery in my
camera decided to die on me (I didn’t know that I could not charge it with my
laptop). Also can you imagine, my laptop almost disgraced me? It refuse to come
on when it was time for me to present.
Here is a picture of the
outfit I wore (my in charge took the picture after I was through with the
presentation), hope you all approve.
On Tuesday (the 19th),
a pharmaceutical company decided to mark ‘world diabetes day’ that usually
comes up on the 14th of November every year. So the plan was to march
around the hospital and create awareness, even though like a consultant said,
we were supposed to create awareness with non hospital staff outside the
hospital as most of us in the hospital know about diabetes. But rain had some serious other
plans. It rained heavily at that period. This was a rain that there was no
visibility at all…..*scary*.
So we just wore our
T-shirts that my in charge had to displace some people for (when would the
injustice to pharmacists end) and was as usually big for me and pretended to
march (or should I say ‘I’ pretended to march). I was too busy snapping away to be interested in
singing and marching around the hospital.
Anyway here are some
pictures. Before anybody yabs me about the way I wore the cap, hear me out
first. I work in a hospital with medics that are so stiff and most of the times
not fun, so in other not to look like everyone I decided to be a rebel hence
the snap-back style. Hey, I have to be the diva all the time na…..hahaha.

Thanks dear. I pray so because i am going to be giving presentations for a long time...
DeleteLMAO at "pretending to create awareness" Nigerian Navy hasn't left you one bit!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look smart and ready and I am sure you did well... It gets better with time like Uche rightly mentioned!
Thanks. I really hope it gets better with time.
DeleteThe facts is there is nobody who doesn't get butterflies when mounting the lectern/podium no matter the number of years of public speaking he/she has had. Even newscasters get butterflies in the 5 seconds or so they begin broadcasting; the key is be yourself and look above people's heads and not into their eyes.
ReplyDeleteAm not tech savvy buy I think you'll see a dialogue box asking you if you want the doc in its original size or some other sizes.
I just caught that Kiss! XXX
Okay, guess i am normal then. I think i have been able to reduce the size of the files. I have uploaded 3 of what is required. Thanks.
