dreary tuesday

from freezing, ice and snow to 60 degrees, rainy and flooding streets... can't we get a break?! just kidding, i much prefer the latter.

still going on the neuroscience exam, hoping to finish it tonight. it's been really difficult to locate resources that are written at my level... seems to be nothing between super genius and fifth grader. oh well, almost one step closer to completing that minor! yay!

yesterday's experiment didn't go well. another one bites the dust. we'll try again friday.

the monthly list is now as follows (w/weekly goals italicized):

1. email prospectus to entire committee (need to create spreadsheet of experiments to date first)
2. set up pre-prospectus meeting with committee
3. make any edits required for prospectus
4. first draft of outline for dissertation chapters
5. prep two lectures for class (one this week)
6. talk with adviser on new plan for experiments, including surgery updates
7. order extra batch of experimental animals, begin twice a week data collection
8. analyze any and all data collected
9. prepare presentation for CI class
10. prepare group led discussion for CI class
11. write response paper for business class
12. complete exam one for NEUS class
