Yatttaaaaaaaaaa!
It went okay.
It's easy to forget that four years ago I wouldn't have been able to do this. My first semester, I did a paper on Korea and women and labour unions. Because I didn't have a printer, the morning of my presentation I trotted down to the local copy shop, where they told me that my disk was corrupted and they couldn't get the file. I briefly burst into tears, then told myself, it was okay, I could collect myself and still do the presentation, since I knew this information--as long as I didn't have to go first. The professor had arranged the projects by topic in a specific order, and guess what? I was first. I shook my head in terror. He insisted. I started crying again. I just couldn't do it.
And today I stood up in front of a class of much cooler people than I and told them about renaissance views of hermaphrodites and sex-changes and female anatomy.
A small reason to be proud of myself.
