we want to apologize. We were planning to do an extraordinary speech‚ which was a skit depended on PowerPoint. By the way‚ we did not know that we could use PowerPoint until a kindhearted teacher STRONGLY recommended it‚ and so we did. But at the last minute‚ we were told that the projector and screen were not available. What a shame! We spent so much effort and time to make the PowerPoint and design the skit for days.
