presentation

The previous week was really stressful for me, as I had an oral exam in "Kulturschwerpunktthemen Italienisch" on Tuesday and the Jaywalking presentation on Thursday. I had the presentation togehter with Alexandra and we dealt with the following topics: Gaelic Athletic Association, alcohl abuse in Ireland, Bloody Sunday, Good Friday and crime rate in Ireland. It was quite difficult to find some interesting facts about the crime rate and unfortunately I couldn`t find any comparison to Austria. Alex had some problems with the topic Bloody Sunday as David Monagan mentioned in his book that it was in 1921 during a Hurling match and Wikipedia said that it was in 1920 during a Gaelic football mach. So Alexandra was a bit torn but at the end she decided, together with Lisa, to mention both, to avoid misunderstandings.
All in all, in my opinion the presentation was quite interesting and our colleagues were really attentive. Furthermore it was great that they really cooperated when it came to the discussion point.


To be honest I am quite happy that it is over now as I am not a fan of presentations.
