Today, I defended the first defense of my project (Chapters 1-3). My experience was quite funny, and from the humorous perspective, I noted a few things that anybody who's passed through it can relate with. Enjoy.

1. People who suddenly learn how to dress corporate.
Some people who you never knew could dress corporate will just surprise you. Some people who haven't worn suit since their secondary school graduation will just shock you by wearing it. People who always wear Abaya or Jeans on palm will dress and you'll be seeing them like, "Na you be this?"

You'll just be like,"is that you"?

2. People with all sorts of powerpoint slide animations.

You'll see some people's slide and you will not feel like presenting again. That day you will learn of the existence of some fonts you didn't know before. You'll see some people's animations and you'll almost feel badbelle for them for overshadowing you .
Theirs will be like this

and yours will be like this in comparison

A certain nervousness comes over you and you look somewhat like this

And then you start and you find yourself trying not to get this response but your tongue dey shake for lack of words

And then you realise you've made all kinds of murderous spelling mistakes

When they ask you questions you don't know and you blow grammar to paper it over.

The kind of questions they ask you.

"Why are you using bluetooth...why not redtooth"

"You want to build a solar panel. Why are you building something the average Nigerian cannot afford ?"

"Why are you using arduino, why not PIC?"

And then, when you finish the whole thing....

LOL! Abi oh?
