The presentation yesterday went pretty well. I was really nervous, as I tend to be whenever I'm trying to explain any aspect of my life to a wholly outside party. It normally happens when I'm discussion religion or philosophy, but apparently also applies on giving a presentation on a pin-up site to a class at a fairly conservative school. Still, I think I got across to everyone that SG is far more than a porn site and that it's a fantastic, immersive community. aubli said it went pretty well except that I may have given everyone the impression that every female member of SG is a SuicideGirl. Argh.
So now I'm starting on the 12-page paper due on Monday. I'm hoping to get it done with enough time left to go to Dawning tonight and run Mage in a relaxed way tomorrow. But I won't sacrifice quality for speed, especially since several of you people who I asked questions of over the last couple of weeks have expressed an interest in seeing my paper when it's done. It occurs to me that having my paper circulating through SG would be really really cool if it turns out well, especially since one of the reasons I really wanted to do my project on SG was as a way to push myself to get more involved. But if it turns out badly I should have to huddle in a corner, dreading the arrival of messages along the lines of, "Way to entirely misrepresent us, jerk." And that's no good. So I must do it well. So...I should get to that. Wish me luck. And send me opions if you like I'm not done yet.
