How my day was to go in theory:
- Finish maps for part-time job
- Complete stats homework
- Lunch
- Complete poster for presentation on Friday
- Possibly write for rest of day
How my day actually went:
- Discover that I am locked out of the computer I was using to complete maps
- Work on poster
- Give self heart attack thinking I did something wrong with my graphs
- Realize graphs are fine
- Try to explain dpi to a professor and why upping a 72dpi image to 300dpi will not automatically make the image "better"
- Complete poster
- Check three other computer before finding one with Photoshop that I'm not locked out of
- Start finishing maps
- Fire drill
- Find out that fire drill is fire actual
- I DIDN'T GRAB THE THUMB DRIVE WITH MY FINISHED POSTER ON IT. Good to know my priorities are in order.
- False alarm. Troop back into building.
- Lunch
- Finish maps
- Work on stats homework
- Curse at stats homework
- Decide I will answer last two questions tomorrow
- Play a few games
- Realize that final assignment in stats is due next week and not after Thanksgiving
- Start looking through papers I can use for the assignment trying to find one with statistics I actually understand
- Panic
- Settle on paper about AIDS, even though it has nothing to do with my thesis because it's an easy read with nicely explained statistics
- Print paper
- Nearly crash computer
- Realize I need to turn in a copy and print paper again
- Nearly crash computer... again
- Give up and read
maderr's latest story
- Post about day on LJ
Now to read this paper again. I've read it before, but it's been awhile.
