Polished transcript:

Male Female

Well, I made a promise to my closest friend in university. She had a presentation, and it was her first presentation. She was very confused about it because she is from a mechanical background. However, I am from a computer science background, and she asked me to help her with making the presentation. Not only that, she also wanted me to help her learn the basics of PowerPoint and how to give a perfect presentation in front of an audience. I promised her that, yes, for sure I would help her. It was about a month ago when I made the promise to her, but my schedule became very hectic. It was very hard for me to manage time for her, but somehow I managed it because I made a promise to her. I taught her the basics like animation, font size, how to upload a picture, how to change colors, and so on. Apart from that, I also taught her how to maintain eye contact and how to interact with the audience so that it could be a perfect presentation and how to show professionalism. It took me some time to teach her, but I was over the moon when she told me that she was very happy about it, and I was happy too. Overall, this was the time when I made a promise to my friend.
