Your probably wondering 'Why is Alice panicking?' Well I'm panicking about multiple deadlines that are due this month and I have to do tomorrow.

For example, did you know that I need to turn in my work experience forms by the end of next week? Luckily though I have a hunch on what to do and that is either labeling bugs (which I really don't mind, I find the little things interesting) or working with weather recording tech... or working at questicon...

I also want to apply for a school (cough) i'm not telling you what the name is due to privacy issues, but they gave me the wrong forms (I think) because I want to apply for the IB program there, not the normal one... anyways I need to call them tomorrow too...

I went to the space centre today with my relatives, and the front left tire popped when we were coming back home. It delayed us, and I actually realized I didn't know how to change a tire :P luckily my uncle had some vague idea, and/or experience in changing a tire, plus he's the one who was driving the car. I just watched along with my 2 other relatives... We arrived back late and I couldn't call the school :P so I have to call tomorrow.

I also have two projects due soon in this month, and even though I started them, and in the progress of finishing them I always panic, especially when one of them is an oral presentation. I always hate speaking in public. I've always been like that. It always feels like my heart will burst out of my chest the first 3 minutes of the speech. My palms get sweaty, I used to shake.

First experience with large audiences was when I was little and playing the piano. My legs were shaking. Hell I even freaked out during a piano evaluation, and there was only one person assessing my piano skills. Sports never gave me this type of problem. Sure people are watching, but who cares? All I have, and my team has, is a bunch of supporting parents, and parents supporting the other team. Not people scrutinizing your every word, your every gesture, your every move. It makes me nervous when everyone in the room STARES AT ME. All at once, for ten minutes. It is frightening.
