Are you kidding me? I was stood right next to a whole bunch of people I 
know, and none of them would talk to me. They were all too busy trying 
to keep in touch with what's going on. (Not that you can hear yourself 
think over all the racket...)

When they call your name, and you don't actually know where you're 
supposed to go or what you're supposed to do, and 350 people are 
watching you... yeah, kinda stressful.
