Application of Design Presentations

I always feel that I'm not a nervous public speaker. But when it comes to actually standing in front of the class and presenting your idea, the reality of potential embarrassment is soon overwhelmingly stressful.

I had to present to my class with my group, our collection was called 'Enchanted' - not my favourite name by any means, but one we could nearly agree on. Influences from the goth subculture with contemporary means.

I feel that my presentation skills are good, but always room for improvement. I tend to go red when speaking, which I am fully aware of which always makes things worse! I speak confidently which is a strength.
Overall the presentation went well!

A week before deadline, so much work to do, not eating or sleeping properly at all. I suffer with insomnia and it's enhanced when I'm feel like I am gettin ill. The deadline is near but it feel;s the end is nowhere near.
Throwing up due to stress. How fabulous.
Is it really supposed to be this hard?
Okay so realising this module is a lot of work, definately a step up from first year. stressing out slightly because you as an individual can discipline and meet your deadlines but when other members of the group can't, the team as a whole is effected.
