Day Twenty-Seven

Yesterday was a fun day. Our entire group went to the Mees Observatory and got to see cool galaxies and stars. I saw 5 meteorite shower. That was the first time I ever saw one. Today Simran and I worked on analyzing the data. We know know what to do. And we have a lot of work left!

Day Twenty-Five

Bring your friend to work day! Jeri was my friend. She was helpful to Susan's experiment. My other friend Rachel was supposed to come in to, but she couldn't make it. So, basically we walked around and showed our friends each of the labs and the stuff they do. Those people also participated in our experiment. That was helpful. I also found out that Jeff is not going to be here until next week! And our presentation has to be finished by the 20th. And Simran and I have to practice because someone is picky. And Jeff has to tell us how to analyze our data. There are just so many problems!

Day Twenty-Four

We had a lot of people coming in.There were some people who did not show up though! Most of the other people came in by themselves. That was good. They did not give us good results, but by this point it does not matter. While sitting and waiting for people I got so bored that I fell asleep. And then woke up thinking that several hours had gone by and we missed a  lot of people. It was good to realize that it was only a dream. I was really tired, and it was really hot in that room, even though the door was open for most of the time. Now I really want to take a shower. I will do that as soon as I get home.

Day Twenty-Three

Uncooperative subjects!!! (We had to find subjects that did not remember about us, and we did not know where they were or how they looked like!)
Another frustration is that I feel like my days on the post tiles is off. I know I skipped one day because of Massachusetts, but it is still wrong according to other people's blog. Maybe they are just wrong!*
Anyways, Bob sent out an email to help us find more subjects, and we got like 5 more people already. Hopefully they show up tomorrow and Friday... even though our research project is giving us answers that we don't want!

*I figured it out. I skipped Thursday. But, it is okay, because Thursday was just another busy day trying to find Jeff and finish the experiment.

Day Twenty-Two

I realize that typing out all of the day numbers is getting to be kind of hard. But I am not planning on changing that in the middle of this blog. Today, Simran and I basically ran the experiment on more interns and found like 10 more people that we could use in our tests. That involved walking into random rooms and interrupting busy looking people. Also, today I participated the Insight Labs's experiment. They had many cool programs that you could use in a classroom. I thought that they were very cool and useful. Now that lab sounds cool. It used to sound very boring. I am excited about finding more random people to run out tests on tomorrow!

Day Twenty-One

So, on Friday I was in Massachusetts, so I missed the graduate symposium. It was a lot of fun, and I might even end up going there for a year or two. Today Simran and I finished the setting up the experiment and got some people in to be test subjects. We have about 15 people, but we need a lot more people, so if anybody wants to stop in they can. Now I need to go home and catch up on the sleep that I missed while at Massachusetts.

Day Eighteen

A day of hard work.... on videos. There is not much more that I can say other that it was tedious, and slightly pointless. I kind of doubt our research will give us good results. The couple of people we tested did not give us excellent answers... so it is kind of sad. Hopefully it is not as bad as it seems. Anyways, now I am waiting for Jeff... he said he was supposed to have a meeting with me at 4:30, but it is 5:10 right now and he has not arrived. Maybe we were supposed to have a meeting with him tomorrow, but we thought it was going to be today. Either way, I am not very happy because that means that Simran and I are not exactly sure what to do now! Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!
