First Creative Thinking Presentation Day

My first presentation in NAFA and I'm ashamed to say that I messed it up. As the group leader, I was suppose to initiate a meetup after school or over the weekends to finish discussing about our presentation and complete our mind map but I did not. I completely forgot about the assignment and only started with the mind map a few hours before the presentation. As I did not say anything about the presentation, my group members too, weren't prepared.
I started off the presentation apologizing to the class as my mind map was obviously done without effort and I feel that I'm wasting their time, listening to an unprepared presentation. I went on to share about my experiences with toilet paper, but when it was meng jing's turn to speak, she didn't know what to say. It was when I realized that my members are counting on me to translate for them as they are not well verse in the English language and I've failed completely as a group leader. The group that did the worst was obviously mine.

I think that the group that did the best was Adam's group. They manage to capture the class's attention completely with Adam's humour as they shared about ways of seeing The Mona Lisa. I find that humour is an important factor in making an informal type of presentation as it would make the subject less aggressive and subsequently make the topic less boring and even transit into something interesting for a mundane man with the right use of words.
