Well, well. Pecha Kucha, two words many of us couldn't hear anymore after some time this semester. Some even started calling this type of presentation "Pechachka" to make it sound more likable. The idea behind it sounds quite challenging: 20 slides, each shown for 20 seconds – makes a presentation of exactly 6 minutes 40 seconds. However, right at the beginning I wasn't to keen on doing it. The reason behind it is that 1 I like to do presentations by myself and 2 I don't like to be limited in speaking time.
My presentation buddy was Julia. At the beginning it took us quite a while to decide on a topic we both wanted to talk about and which had to be somehow connected to the EU, of course. After a while Julia had that great idea to talk about the Åland Islands. Julia had already been to the Åland Islands and told me about what she experienced there. I liked the topic pretty much and it was a very unique thing no one would have thought of.
It has to be said that our time working on the prevention in class was not very productive. This was to a great extend my fault, because I just couldn't concentrate in class and then there were other factors as well that drew may attention away from Pecha Kucha… Julia was quite angry at me at some point, which I couldn't refuse her and I'm sorry for that. It inevitably led to a quarrel, which made us both sad.
On December 19, 2013 the day finally came on which we had to give our presentation. I was so nervous, really. But I think we did very well on it after all and Julia and I were glad to give our classmates a little introduction to the Åland Islands.
(I might add some more info about the topic later…)
