Todays Class Presentation

So, today in class i gave a presentation.
The last two people to go got 15 min to talk about their reflection on the chapter we had read that day. One girl talked (last week) about english phonetics and related it to how she speaks fluent spanish because she was in spain and yada yada yada.
The next guy got up there on wednesday and talked about etymology and how words are borrowed from arabic- because, yep you got it, he is fluent in arabic.
Now today was my turn. I was supposed to talk about how morphology was related to my life somehow.

I dont think you know this about me... but I really ONLY speak English. But in order to follow those presentations, this is how i started my presentation:
"Yea, well... im fluent in Italian.

... (pause)...

ok not really but i just felt like i had to say i was to follow those other two presentations."


I thought it was funny. but im pretty sure instead of laughing... i heard disappointed sighs.


great, now im a douche bag.
