I had been doing my Writing Presentation all day and I finally stopped for a break. It was a Saturday, but my teacher had informed my class that she could check over our presentations if we turned them in to her by Sunday night. I had multiple presentations that I wanted to finish and I had scattered my attention amongst all of them. I found it difficult to work constantly on my Writing Presentation and even more difficult to motivate myself to continue working on my Writing Presentation after I had spent a lot of time working on it. I found it beneficial to work with the television on. However, I made sure to choose a channel that wouldn’t interest me too much. That way, I could remain focused on my project and look up every time that I needed a break. This allowed me to keep from burning out. I also continued to snack while working. This helped since it gave my body the energy it needed in order to continue working and it provided another way to take a break. I made sure that the snacks were by my work area so that I wouldn’t have to waste time in the kitchen. The way that my work area was set up allowed me to work comfortably while not becoming too distracted. I also have just the right amount of distraction to keep me from becoming discouraged with my project. In the end, I finished my project with time to spare. It helped that I had all the materials for my project already in one place. This led to the success of the written portion of my presentation.

I decided, once I had finished my in-class presentation, that I would place my Presentation for Sale. I was a first year, university student and I was having trouble living off of my student budget. I thought that having my Presentation for Sale would make a small amount of money that I could put to good use. I thought about selling it on campus, but that would have been too risky in case the student had the same professor or someone was familiar with it. Also, a lot of friends, once they realized that I had a Presentation for Sale, would want me to give it to them for free. I decided that my best bet was to search online for agencies that would purchase my presentation. I finally found one that looked reputable. I first sent an e-mail and described my presentation. In my e-mail I asked how much they would be willing to pay me for it. They quickly replied with an estimate. I took this as a good sign and I signed over my rights to the project to the company and agreed not to sell the project to another website. Once the contract had been signed by both parties, I sent over the project and the agency paid me through a money transfer program. I had done my project for class, in any case. It was only right that I could recycle my project and further benefit from it. I continued to sell the projects that I had done for my previous courses on websites. This helped to further motivate me to complete my projects and do them well.

I was lying down on my bed, ready to Write my presentation on the decline of available jobs for the unemployed in the US job market. When all of the sudden, I got a call from my best friend. Apparently, she just had a fight with her boyfriend and had been kicked out of their shared apartment. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. I knew that fool was bad news from the moment I met him, but no one ever listens to me. Anyway, she was crying hysterically on the other end of the line. I immediately told her that if she was able to get a cab over to my place, I’d pay for her fare and she could sleep here. I would have picked her up myself, but I had to Write my presentation and it was due on the professor’s desk in the morning. Well, I finally seemed to be making progress on my paper, when lo and behold, my cell phone rang. It was my best friend, again. Apparently, the cab driver had gotten lost and couldn’t find my address. To make matters worse, it was pouring cats and dogs outside. I dropped my pen and grabbed my poncho off of the hanger on the back of my door. I told her to not move and that I would be there any moment. Well, any moment turned out to be three hours later. I had the wonderful luck of getting a flat tire on my way there and not having a spare one available. When I finally arrived, both my best friend and I were soaked from head to toe. With my car finally in working order, we went back to my place. Quickly, we changed out of our clothes and decided to order Chinese food. We ended up having one of the best girls’ nights in that I had in a while. Sadly, I never was able to Write my presentation.
