And I'm going to do it even though it scares the shiz out of me! I have to bring a 10-20 minute presentation describing a research project I have worked on. SCARY!!! I HATE public speaking with a passion, but since I'm seriously trying to make some changes about myself, I think it's time for me to face my fear head on. Besides, I don't really care if I get the job b/c I already have subbing to fall back on. So what do I have to lose? NOTHING!!! All I have to gain is a little more confidence in my abilities as an interviewee...
P.S. I am soooo sick of studying! Physiology test tomorrow (shouldn't be too hard) but I have mounds of other crap to catch up on, and now I have to work on this presentation, study for my phlebotomy exam, and write my nursing personal statement. Whew, what a mind work out. I am looking forward to my second mind unwind tonight at yoga...

Good luck on the interview!
ps. I'm normally a pretty confident interviewee, but the one time I ever bombed a question was when I was asked the perennial "So tell us what your weaknesses are." question and didn't have any BS-laced answer already planned out (you know, the kind where you state a "weakness" but make it sound as though it's actually a positive thing..."Well, I tend to care about my work TOO much" or "Sometimes I'm a little bit TOO organized." blah blah blah). So have one of those ready just in case...
