Welcome to week nine. I’m writing this after we’ve just finished our poster session and we’re all starting to pack. Everyone has suitcases in the hallway, those who have to fly are weighing their bags last minute to make sure they aren’t overweight, I made sure I have enough gas to at least get me to the nearest station. All the fun little errands to check off the list. The poster session went really well. So many people came that I felt like I was talking the entire two hours. I slowly felt myself becoming more comfortable giving my spiel over and over. I think I could recite it word for word on a whim’s notice now. I was so glad to see how many people were excited by our work. I was a little worried that my mainly methodological project and many complicated graphs would scare people off but everyone was willing to hear what I had to say. I felt a bit more confident in the work I did afterward and I wasn’t sure I would. So that’s great! Everyone else's posters turned out beautifully as well. Seeing all our hard work come to fruition was such a gratifying and exciting experience. On the personal side of things, we’re getting ready to go to a potluck at Richard’s house with all the REU’s and some of the mentors. I hear Richard is making tuna so I’m very excited about that. I think it will be a nice last get together before we head our separate ways. My time at OIMB has been unforgettable. Literally. Because I immortalized it in this blog. Thanks for reading!
