Hello Friends

So, I have been busy this past week. Let’s break it down:

Wednesday

We had our MCA presentation on Wednesday, and it was kind of stressful. I am used to speaking in front of people, but I over think things and become anxious. Our presentation was about machine learning and self-driving cars. For the past two weeks we were learning about machine learning and the process around it. I enjoyed watching all of the presentations and thought they all were pretty interesting. This coming semester I have a machine learning and am very thankful for some background information into the subject.

Thursday

There were 8 of us that went to go see Inside Out 2, which was pretty enjoyable. The first movie came out like 9 years ago (I feel old) and I was in either in 5th or 6th grade which is crazy. I thought the movie was good and anxiety seemed the most realistic to me. I thought some of the dialogue was funny since it didn’t seem the most realistic, but it was still funny. Following the movie we went to go get ramen. This was the first time I was having actual ramen, and it was really good. I had gotten steak ramen and would get it again. After that we kind of hung out and enjoyed the Fourth of July and the break we had.

Weekend

For the weekend I went home to see my family. I was extremely excited for this since we had just gotten a new orange kitten named George. It was really nice seeing my family and just having some time away after a somewhat stressful week. I got to play with my dogs and have homemade food which was so nice. I also got to see my grandparents which was really sweet.

When I got back, we went to our grad mentor’s house. The dinner there was marvelous, and I need to recipe (I am looking at you Aron). It was a really nice house and was fun to meet his family. We played some basketball and volleyball after dinner. Then I showed how good I was at Mario Cart (I got last for most of the races). I really enjoyed the time we spent.

Well, that’s all folks,

Best,

Sophie
