Today was a day I have been dreading for about a month now. We had to do mock interviews in front of the entire class… with people choosing random (but typical) questions to ask (from a list given to us prior). I’m all about public speaking, I’ve even toyed with the idea of teaching it some day… but interviews in front of 25 people? Come on. It’s hard not to feel like an asshole when you’re basically bragging about all the things you’ve done. And what interview would really consist of 25 people choosing questions at random? To make matters worse, I wrote down my answers to each question and “studied them”. (See: paper on the left) As soon as my professor walks into class, she says were done with the list; she’s bored with the same questions. All in all, it wasn’t so bad. But I’m sooo glad it’s over.
