So the conference went pretty well. There were a lot of great papers to listen to through the conference. I learned a lot. My panel went as well as it could. I get so nervous speaking in front of people who are smarter than I am and being judged by them. But my paper went fairly well. I was asked some pretty good questions and didn't receive any negative feedback. Philosophy conferences can get sort of contentious at times. But I suppose that goes with the subject matter. It was a good experience over all, even if my anxiety was out of control. I had only one panic attack this time, so I'm improving haha. One down, one to go. I hope the rest of you had a great weekend.
