Irony

Today I gave a presentation in one of my classes. It was a pretty big part of my grade, and I have known about it for about five weeks. So, of course, I started working on it yesterday afternoon. All things considered, it went pretty well. My peer reviews were fairly positive. My favorite? "Be more confident. You obviously know what you're talking about." Apparently I faked enough confidence to make myself appear knowledgeable, but not enough to make myself appear confident. Go figure.
