Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Say you were speaking at a big conference in the morning, with all kinds of hot shots in the design world. Which of the following would you do on the eve of the conference?

Fill in the blank:

Q 1: I would spend the eve of the conference___________________________________________________________.

a} putting the final touches on my slide presentation, you can never be too prepared, especially when playing with the big kids!

b} burying my stitch-filled face in ice cream and a Gilmore Girls marathon.

c} going for a big run! I always feel better after I exercise!

d} shopping with girlfriends for the perfect conference outfit. You can never have too many clothes, shoes and accessories.

What would you do? I always like to make it multiple choice so no one has any college essay flashbacks. Plus, I added a fake answer. No one goes running to relieve stress, that’s just weird.

6 Julie {Angry Julie Monday} January 20, 2010 at 10:19 pm: Shopping…LOL I'm sure you will be great!
7 christy January 21, 2010 at 9:35 am: If it were me I would totally plan for A, then get a call from a friend & totally do D. Good luck!
8 NestBliss January 21, 2010 at 10:10 am: Well if I wasn't totally sure about my clothes I would def. go shopping because – really your slides can go haywire but if you aren't feeling perfectly dressed when presenting at a design conference it just isn't going to be right.
Ummm if I was sure about my clothes I would probably fool with my slides – even though I wish I could say watch Gilmore Girls – because that is the best choice. But i speak at conference things for work and I am totally the person stressing right before!
9 Alisa January 21, 2010 at 11:55 am: I'd say A.
I am sure you will be fantastic!
I wish I could be there to cheer you on!

11 Azúcar January 22, 2010 at 1:49 am: I'd pick D. Just a shot in the dark. No reason.
