Dear Diary,
I feel: 😊(happy)
The air conditioning is fixed!
Yesterday, I said I would finalize the presentation for today’s group meeting, but it turns out I didn’t have all the images I wanted to include. The presentation is finalized now though which is good.
Cropped some bullets this morning. Coding is fun.
The VR Lifeguarding team met again today. We’ll begin writing our application for the conference soon!
Went back to coding this afternoon. The computer I’m using for coding is very slow, and when I run the statistical analysis code it takes two minutes. Slow and steady progress. I ran the statistical analysis on nine pairs of data today, and it took twenty minutes. At least I can feel productive while I sit on my phone.
Our schedule had an HCI class planned, but it was cancelled since Professor Gilbert is on vacation. Hopefully we’ll reschedule the class.
Work smarter, not harder. I love the euphoria of solving a programming challenge. I cheered at work today for coding a four line solution to a twenty minute menial task. 😊(happy)
This afternoon, we had our group meeting…. Our presentation was roasted for so many reasons. We were not prepared for the barrage of questions. Comprehension questions, method questions, purpose questions, format questions, figure questions, trick questions! We know where we need to improve, and I’m glad we’re doing this before the big day.
Tidbit(s) of information:
• Some of the interns still like Uno! We’re going to play tonight, and we’ll change the rules so hopefully a single game won’t take two hours. 😁(excited)
• Find a laugh throughout the day. Jennifer and I got a kick out of typos earlier today.
• The dining hall had mint chocolate chip ice cream today. So yummy!
• I won a Misty Robotics t-shirt through an easter egg in one of there emails. 😍(love)
Sincerely,
Lara
