ritual? when exactly has it became a ritual? xD
ah, I see. so you want to do it without sounding awkward?
hmmmmm. well, I can tell you how I do my oral presentations. Although I don't really think about it when I'm up there in front of the class . . . but I guess that's why it's pretty easy for me.
Sometimes I'll practice before doing it in front of the class, and I'll tape myself doing it. I fix all my mistakes and things that way, and even though I don't have an audience there to roll their eyes at the corny jokes I throw into my presentations (to lighten the mood, you know?
), watching a recording of yourself doing the presentation helps.
Try and not think about anything besides doing the presentation. Half of the class probably won't be paying attention, anyway (sometimes I find myself thinking about something else when one of my classmates does their oral presentation). Make sure to pretend and look at everyone from time to time, though (like, staring at the wall and giving the impression that you're looking at your classmates). That gives some extra points, even if you're looking at no-one in particular.
oh yeah i love watching luffy kick some butt with Gomu Gomu no Jet Pistol
