Coming to an end


Sorry I haven't been the most current soul in the program, but I've been busy putting the finishing touches on my project. Our symposium is next week, and I'm scared somewhat, because I'm nervous that my project isn't as good as the others and it kind of intimidates me a bit.

Well new topic of discussion. This week was our meeting for Dr. Lambros for our misbehaver Friday before last. I guess I should fill all you readers in on what happened. Well last Friday we took a tour of the MRI building, and let me add that we got lost. A large group of lost teens is not a good group to be in, because there were attitudes out the wazoo.

Anyway, we finally met our tour guide, and we took a tour of two rooms and that was it. Not the end of the story though, because somewhere in all of this some of the students were rude and earned us the label of the "The worst group of students" she'd ever seen.

Well the meeting was very brief, and apologies were plenty. Word to those who enter this program...IT IS NOT A JOKE! Don't act like you have to be here, because you really don't. Mind you manners and be on your toes.

Well, anyway like I said this week I have been working on my PowerPoint, and I actually began to see what exactly my project was! I put my animations on my PowerPoint today....nothing too fancy don't want to take away from what I'm trying to say nor do I want to have to click a lot or have a risk of my presentation going haywire. My mentor and I modified our list of target schools, and that made the project go a little faster in it's self because we had 46 schools and trying to obtain all their information would have taken more time than we had. So what we did this week was take the list down to about 28 schools...big change, huh? Well all information has been entered into the table, but we've encountered another problem with that.

How am I going to display my information? I made it a slide in my presentation , but it might not display accurately...it might be distorted in some way. Then we thought that we could get it blown up to poster size and display it that way, but will some people located towards the back be able to see it? I don't know what to do, and I'll just have to talk it over with my mentor.

Before I go I'd like to add that I've enjoyed getting to know two people in this program that I consider friends...Asia and Briana. They are very down- to- earth and so very "tres jus" (inside joke...LOL). I will miss them when this is over for sure. I've also met a boy that is very sweet and his name is Chrison, I go to school with him and never noticed him before now. He's the only one who asks me how I'm doing whenever I see him, and I think that that's cool. Oh like that pic of Blue and me?
