My JFK Presentation

So if you personally know me, or are my facebook friend (trust me all facebook friends do not personally know each other.......) then you would know that I had a presentation on the movie JFK this morning.
For my political science class we were each assigned a movie to view and then we had to pick out certain issues that were discussed in class. We were then to write a paper about our issues, and we had the option of presenting our paper for 15 extra credit points.
Who doesn't like extra credit? I know I do, it is like a safety net.
Anyways, my presentation was today and I was very nervous. My professor is extremely knowledgeable in political science and I thought that he would catch/correct me on something.
However, at the same time I was extremely proud of the presentation I put together and really wanted to show it off.
So I said a prayer and went up there and talked about what I knew. Surprisingly, it was much easier then I had expected. I felt confident about the issues I picked, and even more confident when I found out that I was the only one who had made a power point......
I finished my presentation and was waiting for the strict scrutiny (political science term!) of my professor to kick in. Well, it didn't. All he said was.......that was excellent. I am sorry, come again? Did you say excellent Professor Stewart? No questions? No nit picking?
This is me on cloud nine. Instead he asked me how/where I got my pictures for my power point because it was a great addition to my presentation.
Woah, wait. No questions about my issues? Meaning covered everything!??!? HALLELUJAH
What a wonderful start to the day!
