That moment when it feels like your heart will burst and fall right on the floor, right in front of everyone. You can feel the sweat dripping down both sides of your face. In that moment, you silently pray that no one is watching or paying close enough attention to your nervousness. Dear reader that is what I felt minutes before my presentation.
